Organic Bowls


I originally saw this material used to construct a hanging chandelier and I loved the look of it, but I think it looks even better used in the construction of these organic bowls. The material I'm speaking of is recycled plastic strands (eco-friendly) that are spun together, the bowls comes in three colors...Choose your favorite, I love the ORANGE!

Designer, Deal, and Steal!


In 1952 designer Harry Bertoia created these modern chairs constructed of bent steel rods. They are classic, functional, pieces of art. If you love this design but would prefer to have it on a budget...don't fret...there's a steal for you. Click to find out which is which.


One of the chairs is $780.00 while the other is a steal at $195.00

Traffic Stopper?

What do you think about this "Transit Chair" made from recycled metal street signs? If you like it, it can be yours for $1150.00. Does it inspire you, do you appreciate it's artistic qualities, do you hate it??? Leave your comments and let me know.

Pop Art Mirror


You know how I love pop art...so I couldn't resist posting this mirror made from RECYCLED SODA CANS!

Tres Jolie...

This is an awesome piece. The Crepax Kadhorna cabinet that can be purchased separately or as part of a set that also features a bed, dresser, and tall cabinet. I personally think all of the pieces in one room would be overkill, but as an accent piece this would look GREAT! It features the artwork of graphic artist Guido Crepax and was designed in 2004 by designer Giuseppe Canevese.

Ice, Ice Baby...


These are ice frames designed by Tom Vincent and sold through Umbra. Each frame holds three photos and are reflected from different angles to create it's unique effect.

Spotlight...Urban Outfitters

I love to take images of furniture and decor and put them all together to form an eclectic "design" collage. I LOVE these items and they're ALL from Urban Outfitters, they have such a unique variety of items with fun patterns and bold colors. They're items are perfect for dorm rooms, and apartment or loft living. I also think urban outfitters is a great place to buy items if you want to keep the feel of a room "young", there is something for everyone plus there's great fashion there as well...You can't beat that! HAPPY SHOPPING!!!

Designer, Deals, and Steals...2 for 1

In case you noticed I've been on a mad posting frenzy, trying to get some things up that I wanted to show you before I take a break for the long Memorial Day weekend! I went shopping with my bestfriend on yesterday (who happens to be a huge fan of hue--thanks bestest *muah*) and she's getting ready to redecorate her living space. She always jokes when she sees something expensive that I need to "find the deal and steal" for whatever she's looking for, although these aren't items that she's choosing to buy I thought I'd do a 2 for 1 deal in her honor, so here goes...


Check out these two lamps above which do you think is more expensive? You'll have to click to find out but one of these will cost you $189.00, while the other is far from breaking the bank at a price of $29.88.



These are modern mirror squares that are connected to form one wall accent mirror ,very contemporary, only one set of mirrors retails for $1260.00 while the other is only $98.00. Hmmm, which is which, just click to find out.
