Deal Alert: 20% Discount at Hudson

Jill Goldberg, owner of Hudson (and brand new mommy to baby Dylan) is offering a rare treat – 20% off all in-stock items at both boutiques, through Sunday, May 16th. A Mother’s Day treat indeed. I happened to be over there a couple of weeks ago, snapping plenty of pictures. What’s catching your eye? I’m loving the bumblebee pillow.

ARTevent: SMFA Sidewalk Sale

This weekend is Boston’s School of the Museum of Fine Arts’ Spring Sidewalk Sale. I am hoping to check it out. The Inside Out sale in November is always amazing, so I have high hopes for this too. And prices are good, which is always a plus.

Sponsor Love: Fabricadabra Ikat Pillows

By now most of you avid blog readers and lovers of home decor are well-acquainted with Fabricadabra’s fantastic (and wonderfully priced – just $40) ikat pillows. But I bet you’re less aware of the company’s other designs. And since Fabricadabra is now a Style Carrot sponsor (yay!) I thought it best to tout those too. Love ’em all!
