Splurge vs. Steal: Stacked Ball Table Lamps
Stacked Ball Crystal Table Lamp by famed designer Larry Laslo for Frederick Cooper ( $740 at Lamps Plus) vs. Target’s Stacked Ball Acrylic rendition ($40). One is crystal and the other is acrylic, but for $700 less, acrylic will do just fine…
A Flower of a Chair
One of the big hits of the Salone Internazionale del Mobile in Milan was the Bouquet chair from Moroso. Completely structured of fabric squares on a metal frame, the chair embraces you and uplifts you just as a bouquet of flowers would. Well, maybe. It will be available from our friends at Scott + Cooner to see for yourself. By the way, this is not an idea for all you delinquent designers that have a trunk full of un-returned fabric samples. The Bouquet is made of a special fabric that springs back - last I checked Cowtan & Tout chintzes don’t do that.
Your New Kitchen?
This beautiful eco-luxurious kitchen could be yours - in the most convenient location in Highland Park. You can have it all - walk to restaurants and grocery stores and put the kids in HP schools. Do I sound like a realtor? No, just really sad that I’m selling my house and leaving the most beautiful kitchen ever. I never planned to be unfaithful - I was perfectly content with my current housing relationship. Then, I went in an open house while visiting my Dad in () North Dallas. I fell in love with a very contemporary split level 1970s house on a small residential lake. Wouldn’t have been a problem, except I called my husband, and he fell in love, too. It was fated…now we have two houses, one too many. So, back to my original premise - this kitchen could be yours.
