34 Buddhas in Decor

I still haven’t tried yoga. Too peaceful. I did however just sign up for a modern dance class at Boston University. The teacher is amazing, and I’m trying my best to blend with the thirty plus twenty-year-old girls (and boy). Anyway, yoga and prancing aside, I do appreciate the serenity of a Buddha. When I lived in NYC, the Buddha room at the Met Museum was one of my favorite places for decompressing. Buddha heads (ad sometimes bodies) are popular adornments in homes in search of zen.

Montage: 65 Palm Beach Style Rooms

With summer not far away, it’s no surprise I’ve got color on my mind. Not that I’ll ever go all out in my own house, but I definitely admire the mix of brights that designers employ in rooms with WASP style. The color, the prints, the faux bamboo, the ornate mirrors, the ugly porcelain frogs. It’s all a whirl of fun. Last month I put together two Palm Beach primers for The Inside Source ” Part 1 focused on the work of designers Ellen Hamilton, Annsley McAleer, and Angie Hranowsky; Part 2 on Amanda Nisbet and Palmer Weiss. Here are more rooms with a Palm Beach aesthetic.

Montage: 33 Vintage Suitcase Stacks

I’m really not a dusty old suitcase kind of gal. But last month I was at designer Jeff Osborne’s South End loft (I’ll blog about it later this week), where I realized I must acknowledge the allure of vintage Vuitton. (His Vuitton is the second photo down.) While I won’t be procuring any of these pricey pieces (or their poor un-provenanced cousins), I certainly recognize a trend when I see one. I recently wrote “Trendlet Alert: Well-Traveled Luggage” for The Inside Source. Here’s an expanded montage.

Montage: X-Stools

As I may have mentioned, I’m in the midst of redecorating my bedroom and the room formerly known as the playroom. (Once kids are 8 they don’t need toys anymore, right?) This weekend the floors on our the main level are being refinished. The paint colors are chosen and the main pieces of furniture ordered. There are even a few key accessories waiting patiently to be placed. But I still need a couple of medium-sized items, like side tables and poufs or ottomans. I snagged three microsuede storage cubes at Target for $17.99 last week, in my exact colors (turquoise, violet, chartreuse).  Super cute and totally cheap. (Plus, the Star Wars costumes all fit inside one. Take that Vader.) To accompany the bedroom sofa, I’m debating between two of the same cubes in charcoal, a metallic silver leather pouf, or two X-stools covered in crisp white cotton duck, just like the sofa. An X-stool is incredibly practical  – it’s an extra seat, an ottoman, or topped with a tray, a side table. It’s also one of the earliest forms of furniture. In addition to its versatility and portability, I love its symmetry. It works in pretty much every room, and never fails to look great, and sometimes even pulls together an otherwise faltering space. Have a look at these rooms to see what I mean.

Montage: Globes

Today’s the first day of school for my kids. In honor of students all around, I present you lots and lots of globes. Try one in your kids’ room, the family room, or study. You’ll be amazed what you can all learn just by spinning and scanning…
