Thom Felicia Furniture

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...

This one is called Bird and Butterflies pattern 2704420. 

This one is called New York Pattern 26340

This one is called Aviary pattern 2705511

Our favorite, this one is called Train Pattern 2703940

This one is called Balloon, Patter 2704320

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).

Adorable Recycle Bags

We are loving these recycle bags from 18 Karats.  Bright and colorful, you can use them as gift bags also.

These bags run about $7.50-10 each. You can buy them directly at the 18karat web site.

Cute Housewares from Alice Supply Company

Household products are so utilitarian, aren't they?  We don't give them too much thoughts. But why not?  Little things like a cool toilet plunger is like a cool pocket tie on a man.  It's very telling, don't you think?

We ran accross this line at the New York Gift Show and thought they were so cute...

Check it out:

You can find these items and more directly at the Alice & Co web site. They run between $15-60/each.

Cool Leather Sectional

We were perusing through our old copies of Metropolitan Home today--oh man we miss that magazine!

Anyway, as we were looking through the pictures we were struck with how many clean-lined, cool living room scenes we find in Met Home.  We thought this leather sectional fits in really well with that look, don't you?

The sectional is made by Moroni. We love this line. The leather is so supple and soft and comfortable. The construction is really nice too, firm but not too firm...Just the way it supposed to be.

You can find the  sectional here. It costs about $5K including shipping, but if you are nice, there a nice coupon that you can use (hint:  it's quite substantial).

Email us and tell us you find this item via our blog. We'll email you the secret code.

Floral Crystal Chandelier

We're loving this floral chandelier from DK Living. It is made of several clear glass florets attached together to form a sphere chandelier. We saw it in person at the Las Vegas show and  we thought, whoa, it looks so much better in person. We can see it in a powder room or an entry way, perhaps? 

The chandelier is priced at $1025 including shipping. The diameter is 27.5" and it weights approximately 55 lbs.  You can find more info here.

Creative Wall Stickers

We found Simple Shape via LA Times today.  The company makes quote wall stickers that are peelable.  Filled with inspirational quotes, it'll be a cool thing for your office or library. or wherever you need some inspirations...

The stickers are $18.99 and can be bought on the company's Etsy store.

Midcentury Barstool

We are loving this new barstool from Nuevo Living.  It would be a perfect for a mid-century home, don't you think?  Simple, clean-lined.  Totally modern. 

The barstool comes in 26" height with a 12"5 footrest.  The leather shown here is black but it is also available in white and brown as well.  The price is $450/stool.
