Friday Family-Friendly Find: SmartStuff Varsity 2-Drawer Nightstand
I cried ‘Uncle’ on this week on Monday around 1:00PM. And now I’m saying a big ‘TGIF!’ How can it not be a great day, when we get to wake up to another super #FFFFind? The SmartStuff Varsity 2-Drawer Nightstand is just one of many truly ‘smart’ casegoods offered by SmartStuff, which is Universal…

Thank you for the comments and feedback on Tuesday’s post about the significant (and I think, troubling) ‘cons’ of viscose pile fabrics and carpets. I realized yesterday, after speaking with Wayne Southworth at MWI Fibershield, that the onus for education does not fall solely to fabric sales reps, but also to retailers and designers, who have a responsibility to…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Bunny Williams Home Tray Chic Ottoman
After a topsy-turvy, over-scheduled week, all I want to do when today is done is put my feet up and RELAX. With a generously-poured glass of wine and tall stack of back-issue shelter magazines close-by, of course! The aptly-named Tray Chic Ottoman from Bunny Williams Home really delivers the best of many worlds, and takes the concept of a…

I’m sorry for skipping out on my Tuesday blog post this week. My posting schedule has not changed; I just had a momentary case of creative and writer’s block. All better now! Days of sourcing fabrics for client projects (like today) tend to get the juices flowing again :). Onward… I am a big fan…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: Room & Board Opla Extension Table
Even as a design professional, I have to say that dining tables are one of the most challenging home furnishings to source. Usually we are looking for a very specific size and style; then there is the type of base, the surface, the material(s), the finishes – not to mention price! So many variables must come…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: ducduc Austin Playtable
I’m fresh out of ideas for last-minute Christmas gifts (and sadly, I could still use a few), so I’m getting back to an ‘evergreen’ approach to Friday Family-Friendly Finds for awhile. Today’s #FFFFind is the Austin Playtable by ducduc. I first discovered this piece at ducduc’s showroom at the New York Design Center earlier this…

It’s the end of what was, for me, a very long roller-coaster of a week. I’m a little tired from yesterday’s One Room Challenge reveal (thanks to all for your sweet comments!), and going to the New England Design Hall of Fame induction dinner last night (which was great fun!). So I’m going to keep this…

Holy moly, how is it Friday already? I was so exhausted last night I was falling asleep before dinner – and then promptly fell asleep after dinner (with the computer on my lap, as per usual). So the blog post was delayed a bit… Better a little late than never, today’s Friday Family-Friendly Find is…
Read MoreFriday Family-Friendly Find: CR Laine Pod Pillow
In April, while visiting one of my favorite vendors and showrooms at High Point Market, I discovered a wonderful solution for temporary or portable seating for kids, and even adults that has even more utility and comfort than meets the eye. The Pod from CR Laine looks just like a giant throw pillow (the large…

TGIF! The Friday Family-Friendly Find for today is a real multi-tasker. It’s a sofa, a bed, and even a dresser. Well, maybe not quite – but it is a pretty upholstered daybed with drawers! The Devyn Tufted Storage Daybed from RH Teen would make for an excellent solution for a small guest room,…
