Table fit for a King


It's a table fit for a king,
you'll miss it if you blink.
It shines like bling,
it's a table made of zinc!

Can you believe that this table is made out of zinc? Isn't that great! The Louis collection has a great unique style that can work with any modern or traditional designs. Also since its made of zinc it can be used outdoors as well as indoors, giving you more options for its use. The price of the table was $1800 and is now $975, and the stool was $480 and is now $260. What a great deal for a table fit f0r a king.

Tree in the Trail


Did you ever read the book Tree in the Trail? Its this book about a cottonwood trees life on the Sante Fe trail. For 200 years it grew and adapted to how the world needed and used it over its life span.

This story reminds me of the bowls in the story. Each bowl was hand carved from the burl of the tree roots. Instead of wasting the burl after it was harvested, it was reused into the bowls.

People are very interested in the bowls for how different each one is from its size, color, and rings. They are being snatched up for accent pieces on their coffee tables, or using them as gifts. Especially since the price ranges from $35-$290! So if you want one you better come quick!

Color Wheel




These bowls remind me my Color Theory classes and using the color wheel. Especially when you where bored in class and would spin the wheel around your finger on the desk. A bright flash of color zips around creating a rainbow effect of warm and cool colors schemes.


Kiss That Frog made these dishes as an accent piece for your plain white and solid color dishes. They add will add a refreshing dash of color to any white, or solid color dish. The large ($14 from $28) and medium ($10 from $20) are in the same bright stripe pattern. The small bowls ($7.50 from $11) come in two different stripe patterns, one yellow (triangular color scheme) and one blue (primary colors scheme) with complementary colors of yellow and green.



See I really did pay attention in that class, I didn't just spin the wheel!

Monkey Pod Wood!!



When one thinks of wood carvings, the words heavy, massive, and traditional come to mind. Neil Devore created a series of wood carvings that are very modern. Carving circular layers in maple, acacia, redwood and monkey pod wood, making each layer on a solid piece of wood. Then painted black, with one bright contrasting shade.

The ones that seen here are (from left: Alder Wood Carving 21"L x 14" W $325, top right: Black Acacia 13"L x 9"W $115, and Pistachio 15"L x 12"W $220)

These amazing pieces would look great in a modern, contemporary or Asian influenced design. Even as pieces on a coffee table by themselves they a great piece.

Chez Germain for Sunday brunch?


I'm back from visiting from my best friend from college who loves to cook. She especially liked to make breakfast for us roomies after a long night of studying. One of her favorites was to go to Sunday brunch in the city then do a little shopping to pick up any cute serving pieces to add to the breakfast table. These Chez Germain would be up her alley as well as anyone else who loves to entertain with fun dishes.

What makes these so great is that each one has a faint print in white saying Chez Germain with a dainty and sweet border around it. This print is on the center of the plates, and on the outside front of the bowl, and cup. Each can be sold separately as a plate, cup, and bowl, or together. They are great to mix in with your existing white place settings to add in a little color. And the best thing is there microwave and dishwasher safe! Great buy too, $12 each!

Now whose ready for brunch?
