These fab brass bowls from High Street Market, the new Souk rug from West Elm and the soft colors in this photograph by etsy artist madden photography.

new and lovely

Now that it's the new year there are lots of great new items hitting the stores. Here are just a few that have caught my eye so far:

Crate & Barrel:

Wisteria:

look for less {parsons desk}

I was flipping through the Home Decorators catalog at my parents house and was interested to see a similar, more affordable version of the favored Parsons Desk from West Elm.

West Elm $299

(on sale right now for $254!)

Home Decorators $199

home office ideas {two desks}

In the new apartment we need space for both P and I to work from home. I love how Jennifer (of made by girl) has pushed two West Elm parsons desks together to create a cohesive look that allows for more tabletop space (and gives the option of separating them if she decides to in the future). While I'm not sure that I can afford to buy two brand new desks right now, I am thinking of refinishing a big table and positioning it in the middle of the room so that we can work from either side.

the Safari rug from West Elm.

chic butler's table

Love this modern, foldable serving table by West Elm. The trays are removable and can be swapped out, which is a great feature if you like to switch things up once and a while. Fab bar option for a small space.
