Just In: Jonathan Adler in the Bathroom

Jonathan Adler for Cottonelle Toilet Paper Holders

This is sort of funny; I laughed when I read the press release. Jonathan Adler has partnered with Cottonelle to create toilet paper holders.  As a Jonathan Adler fan, I couldn’t resist, so I had them send a few over. They’re plastic, but sturdy, and the designs are pure J.A. Oddly enough, I had just the other day been thinking about how I could store a few spare rolls in our powder room. So, voilà.


Not bad, right?


How do you like the new wallpaper in our powder room?  It’s
Tres Tintas Barcelona.


Mine are signed!

Want your own?

Go to RespectTheRoll.com. The covers are free with an offer code in specially marked packs of Cottonelle Clean Care Toilet Paper, plus $1.99 shipping. Or, purchase online for $2 each plus $1.99 shipping. Offer ends April 30, 2012.

THIS IS NOT A PAID POST.  I JUST THOUGHT THEY WERE CLEVER.  THEY DID SEND ME 3 GRATIS.

Shopping Trip: Nesting on Main

Back in October, when most of you weren’t stressing about holiday hoopla, I was running (and writing) myself silly pinpointing the perfect holiday gifts to feature in print magazines. This year’s “Boston Globe Magazine Holiday Shopping Guide” took me to Concord, MA that lovely little New England town where literary legends Louisa May Alcott, Ralph Waldo Emerson, and Nathaniel Hawthorne once lived. And let’s not forget Thoreau and Walden Pond.

It being a gorgeous, upscale hamlet, there is actually some excellent boutiques in town. Viola Lovely is one of my favorites for shoes; Tess & Carlos for pricey clothing. I discovered Hatch, a clean-lined white shop with modern home and baby  accessories. Another find was Nesting on Main, an aerie full of artfully arranged antiques and vintage trinkets. I took tons of photographs that I thought you’d enjoy.
