Hitting the Target

Wednesday, October 3rd, 2012

I took a little trip to Target yesterday and struck gold- literally. I was SO impressed with pieces from their new Threshold label. They all looked and felt much pricier than they actually were- and so of course I had to leave with a few things and then SHARE with you because I cannot keep a secret when it comes to a good deal.

And I couldn’t escape without noticing the amount of LEOPARD in there- including this great little faux fur jacket and skinny pants for a song!

The Look for Less: Otomi Fabric

Friday, December 23rd, 2011

There are some patterns that I shall never tire of: Suzani, ikat and Otomi prints.  However, the price for actual handmade versions of any of these fabrics is typically VERY high. Take Otomi for example, a small throw can set you back almost $300. And if you want to make a headboard or upholster in it you’ll need multiples of them!

What I found on Spoonflower is a print exactly like the Otomi by textile designer Samarra Khaja and it’s way cheaper (you can pick the kind of fabric it’s printed on too!) So great for duvet covers, upholstering chairs and my favorite idea- custom nursery bedding!

The smaller scale…

Earlier this year I met with the people at Joss & Main to come up with a great new series in which bloggers and designers are involved in their fantastic flash sale site.  What we cam up with launches tomorrow with my sale!  Inspired by the look of some of my favorite Nantucket interiors, I pulled together a bunch of fantastic home items that you can pick up at discount prices (no matter if you live on shore or in an apartment in Denver!) Check back in tomorrow on Joss $ Main and if you haven’t joined yet, do it now!
