Thom Felicia Furniture
10:42 PM

You are probably familiar with Thom Felicia from "Queer Eyes for the Straight Guys". Do you remember that show? We kinda miss it from time to time. We don't know any straight guy who watched it though, only straight girls, hoping to fix up their men...
Anyway, Thom Felicia is getting to be a major licensing house. He's doing rugs for Safavieh, fabric for Kravet etc. The latest is a furniture collection from Vanguard Furniture. It's quite lovely and original.
Take a look:
You can see the rest of the collection here. If you need help with pricing, drop us a line.

Fabulous Graphic Wallpapers

We often wish we were more adventurous than we actually are. Our home is quite boring-- for people who are in the furnishings business. More often than not, it consists of returns, overstock and miscellaneous things that we can't sell in the store. It looks like a darn garage sale, actually.
Okay, so maybe we're exaggerating a little...
But we do play it a bit safe with just plain colors, solid and textures. This is why we live our fantasies via this blog. We just love showing you things that are whimsical and fun.
Like these wallpapers from F Schumacher, for example...
These wallpapers run about $180-200 per roll, not cheap right? But you can get it for less at our F Schumacher wallpapers section (usually 30-40% off the listed prices).

Where Did You Get That?
4:26 PM
Unknown
We thought we start a new feature called "where did you get that"? This is because many times we browse through a picture of something that we like, be it clothes or furniture or anything else, only to find the source not listed.
Does that happen to you?
In this feature, we'll do our best to show you where to get this stuff. Some of the stuff might be things we carry, some might be other stores. We'll hope you'll find it helpful!
The first one is from Lonny Magazine (have you seen it? It's quite fabulous). The blue stool can be found here in various colors. It costs $288 with free shipping.

1:00 PM
Unknown
We found this adorable line at the Las Vegas Market a couple of years back and we thought we share it with you. They make really cute, adorable furniture that are smaller in scale --quite perfect if you have a small apartment or condo to furnish. The furniture usually comes in neutral colors, which makes it easy to accessorize. They are quite stylish and inexpensive.
Here are a few samples:
The occasional chair runs about $600, sofa is about $1500, chair about $300, bed about $1600. They have a huge web site that you can browse through here. If you need help with pricing let us know (Sunpan only sells wholesale). Shipping cost for furniture is usually high, so we don't recommend buying just one or two pieces. Usually shipping costs will exceed the price of the item.

Admiring: Lauren Greenfield
7:03 PM
Unknown
Have you seen the work of Lauren Greenfield? If not, you should check her out. A photographer and a documentary film maker, her work is very celebral, on social subjects that are, oh God, we hate using the word "thought provoking", as it is SO over used, but perhaps it's the most apt.
But you don't have to get deep if you don't want to. Here is a great video done by Lauren Greenfield on NY Fashion week for New York Magazine. It's really fun to watch.
For more info on her work, check out the web site here.
So brilliant!

Fabulous Lighting from Jonathan Adler

One of the biggest challenges we face as a small online retailer is finding good stuff to buy. It's so hard, let us tell you. We have to find things that are inexpensive enough, pretty enough, and nice enough in person so when the customers receive them, they'll be happy.
You think it's easy?
Ha!
Fortunately the lamps from Robert Abbey fit those criterias. They are so well-made and well-priced, we never have been disappointed.
Here are some fabulous pieces from the Jonathan Adler collection for Robert Abbey:
These items will be posted on our site soon!
