I came across these Mitchell Gold + Bob William lacquered trembesi wood tables awhile ago and couldn't get them out of my head. I can't decide if I prefer the black lacquer or the white. They are both beautiful!
Decor
Craving: Halona Glass
via Halona Glass
Our new place has amazing windows with deep sills and I can't help but think how beautiful a few of these plant toppers or prisms would be when the sun hit them. I remember giving a crystal heart to my mom (I think it was for my mom, but it may have been to both of my parents) when I was young and loved watching the rainbows dance across the walls whenever light poured through it.
Do any of you own one or can attest to how beautiful these are in real life?
(And on an unrelated note, happy birthday to my friend, Mel. I hope it's a wonderful one!)
craving: Overdyed Kilim Rug
via onekingslane
Now that we officially have our place (can everyone hear that sigh of relief? Because we are STOKED and feel like huge weight has been lifted) I'm already jumping into decor and planning things out in my head. And while buying a completely different rug yesterday (after weeks of looking for "the one" that both J and I loved), I stumbled across this little jewel and fell in love. Bold, quirky, and traditional at the same time.
If only it was larger, I may have talked myself into it. Good thing it wasn't though because there is no way I can justify purchasing another rug when we have a lot of other things to collect!
Craving: Helium Balloon Lights

Crous Calogero lights via dornob
Last week the hubs emailed these to me with the subject "awesome." He was so right. I fell hard for these. How whimsical would it be to have glowing balloons in a room? I know they are advertised for kids, but come on. I know plenty of adults who would love to own one of these for themselves.
Craving: A Welcoming Starburst
rejuvenation doorbell cover found in house beautiful
I have a thing for gold and as well as special little touches. This is a perfect combination of the two.
Plus, you'd have the most ethereal doorbell on the block-even if you were the only one who noticed.
Craving: brush vase
Harry Allen vase found on Design Crush
This is one of the coolest vases ever. I just want to fill it with lush white flowers. Ohhh or deep crimson ones. Or my pens and pencils.
Heck, I'd be okay with this just sitting empty on my desk.
Craving: Kettle Classic Desk Phone
I'd feel pretty fancy chatting away on this phone. Doesn't it seem like the kind that should be in a bedroom?
(and yes, I said "fancy.")
Craving: Wendy Chidester Painting
Craving: Fiddle Leaf Fig Tree
via here
Honestly, I just kind of think I should have one of these. I mean, they are everywhere in the design world.
Can't blame them though- it's a beautiful tree.
Good Design: Paul Smith for Evian

I remember the first time I saw a special edition Evian bottle (Christian Lacroix's lace one) and have loved what they've created ever since. I wish I would have seen Paul Smith's earlier- I would have picked up 5 or 6 of them. Wouldn't this be a great bottle for parties?
Craving: Classic Alarm Clocks
Bulova alarm clock found at the Vermont Country Store
Isn't this alarm clock beautiful? I feel like we all just use our phones now, but I would love to see this on a bed side table (even if only for show.)
