Shades of Light is one of those random sources I look to for budget friendly decor- and NOT just for lighting. They have a great selection of rugs, mirrors and even furniture. Here are some of my favorite new items from them that perhaps you didn’t know about! Click each image for the link!

Tuesday, March 29th, 2011Last Night I Dreamt of Paris
Thursday, January 27th, 2011I did. It was lovely. I think I was lost somewhere in the Marais and just wandering around. Much better than my more recent dreams of being chased and killed thanks to the book I’m reading. I awoke and felt like looking around at French interiors and remembered that always carefully curated The Paris Apartment boutique. Chock full of magnificent examples of Parisian style, both old and new. Check out some of these finds!
Lovely lucite chairs blending old style with new materials.
Some days I really think an ornate headboard like this would suit me.
Classic chairs and even more classic stripes.
Amazeballs.
Double amazeballs.
I am almost blind from the insane beauty of these antique doors!!!!! Can you imagine getting to put these in your home???
Lucite hardware and the coolest little phone there ever was. This out styles my Crackberry by tenfold.
That bench needs a home with me. So do those dining chairs.
A little Marie Antoinette ring tray. J’adore.
I could not love the note from Marilyn preserved in this tray any more! Love her.
So Bright, I Have to Wear Shades.
Tuesday, January 4th, 2011After glimpsing one in House Beautiful this month, I fell madly in love with the simplicity and design of Original BTC lighting from England.Just check out some of the options…










Wouldn’t these be great in a coffee or tea house ?
