I just came across this magical Nido Vase at Napa Home. I can imagine one on my sleek, wood veneer dining table, glistening from the sun hitting it just so.
The nido vase mimics the architectural skills of bird.

Since I’ve been writing a lot about Frank Roop lately, I’ve become a bit obsessed with Curtis Jere wall sculptures. A couple of weeks ago, while sitting innocently on the sofa with my computer, I began searching for examples online. 1st Dibs, too expensive, obviously. Ebay, full of options. I cavalierly bid on about half a dozen different Curtis Jere and Curtis Jere-inspired sculptures of the leafy variety. (I’ve been particularly taken with the spray of trees Frank put in this little Morroccan reading nook in Nantucket. I like the “raindrops” style too, but they’re pretty pricey.) I’ve bid on stuff before. Never won a thing. So maybe the economy isn’t so great right now. Maybe people aren’t shopping wildly for vintage metal artworks. OK, so I won four auctions. New sculptures have been arriving pretty much daily. I’ll photograph them and give you a preview later this week. Maybe you’d like one for your own house? Here are some images for inspiration.
The one that started it all.

There’s a new home design boutique in Provincetown. There’s no name on the outside, but the hang tags on the items say South Stream Design Christian Soderstrom. I think he may be an interior designer. I chatted with him briefly on Memorial Day weekend, but it was their first day and things were busy. The shop is enchanting, mixing home accessories with garden ornaments (new, old, and reproductions). The prices are extremely reasonable and I was excited to see he Cavern wallpaper on two of the walls – he even sells it. I picked up a cute garden bunny for my friend Tanya, since she and Rob were making one of their fabulous brunches for us the next morning. The photos I took didn’t come out very well, so I went back last week and shot a few more. And brought home a garden fairy for myself this time.

The bunny. He’d make a great doorstop too.

Love the map wall in the back.
