10 Recent Design Crushes


10 Recent Design Crushes

1. The Cherner Chair
http://www.chernerchair.com/index.php

I've had my eye on this lovely for a few years, and the new cream leather lounge chair is just so amazing! This bar stool version with metal legs looks great, but I'm partial to the wood legs. Like the Wishbone Chair, I would likely go with Walnut.

2. The Fiddle Leaf Fig

Great list! I'm on the terrarium kick too - practical way to have plants cohabitating with three year old twins! Love the Thyme Fir tip - def getting some of that!

I have been looking for a fiddle leaf fig tree for about a year now. It seems that nobody sells the trees anywhere! I'll keep on hunting and WILL find one somewhere! Love the blanket and I love those wooden stool chairs.

Crushen on your crushes! Would you believe that I bought a blue le crueset for $35 at an estate sale....it helped that I knew the woman. She actually was going to give it to me but had an estate running the sale....I gladly paid for it.
The only thing you are missing is a laundress on your list~

Yes for me also! I had all white linen bedding last summer, and can now not live with out it! I got mine from a great company on Etsy out of Romania.

I also am a huge lover and user of Thymes Frasier Fir! Nothing like that smell!

Dawna, I bought the white linen sheets for my bed, and the fog colour for the spare room; I haven't used my cotton sheets for over a year...they seem so cold now!!

Tracey, I got my fig at Walmart of all places...not quite a tree, but a desktop plant right now...but it sure is growing fast, and I have taken off the bottom leaves, as it's first attempt at a tree :)

Your Hudson Bay blanket reminded me of the 4 point Hudson Bay single bed blanket I found at a Goodwill for $5. New they are $350. I do love the romance of actually owning one.

Great blog, please keep it up.
