Handcrafted Home Accents

Vogue's recent article: Interior Design Trends to Know in 2023 was the inspiration for today's post. Among the listing of what's in and what's out, artisan, handcrafted, and natural designs stood out to me as the most unique and sophisticated. This edit features some of my favorite finds.

Handmade with marble, stone and metal. These lights are really unique. They will be conversation starters wherever you hang them.

When Macy's has a home sale, you can count on it being a good one. Perhaps what I like best about Macy's online store, is that they offer both high end  and affordable brands. So it is a good place to shop no matter what your price points are. Here's some of my favorite finds of the sale.

 

Casper Dining Chair
A copy of the iconic Ghost Chair, at a great price. These chairs are clerly chic and affordable!

Saturdays At Shop This: Sweet Things

Well, we made it through another Covid19 week. Much like the others, it was filled with images of violence, despair, inequality, and Mother Nature's wrath. I was so happy to see this sweet photo (above)  on my Instagram feed today. It's Katy Perry's baby announcement. Her first child, Daisy Dove, entered the world this week, and Katy had the sweetest manicure.  Today's post is meant to replace all of the negative images in your own mind with sweet things. Enjoy!

 
Introducing a New Baby to the Family Dynamic: Besides Katy, I know two new moms, Kate and Allie, that have given birth in the last 3 weeks. This subject is important. Share these great tips with someone in your life that may need it.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 

Sweet Treat: An apple a day keeps the doctor away. Make them chocolate covered, and life becomes a little sweeter. Mrs. Prindable's now has a Pumpkin Spice variety. A lovely gift to send across the miles. It's also a perfect teacher gift.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ 

Miranda Kerr on Her Debut Furnishings Collection: The model turned entrepreneur states about her furnishings: "I strive to create and design products with positive intention that can hopefully uplift and inspire.” I found her furnishings positively delightful. And the pretty pops of pink were sweet and stylish. 
See it all at
One Kings Lane

The Sweetest Scent ever has to be that of a newly bathed baby. The Baby Detergent by The Laundress has the best scent. It's a sweet powdery blend that is allergy free and gentle of baby's skin. Select products are sale and ship for free from Nordstrom. To shop the entire line and save 25% on Fall faves, shop the products at

Cake: The ultimate sweet treat in my book. It's Food52's 11th birthday, and they want us to eat cake!  Here are 11 low key, one bowl cakes we all can bake. Think Olive Oil Cake, Simple Pistachio Almond Cake, an easy Apple Cake,
and more.

Sweet Feet:  I'd like to be walking into the weekend in these booties. They are the perfect shoe/boot for transitioning into Fall. Though not inexpensive, they certainly are fabulous. 
Pre-order at ShopBAZAAR

Sweet Sentiments Beaded Bracelet: These sweet bracelets give hope to young ladies with words like "all good," "courage," and more. A great little off to school gift at Anthropologie.

And speaking of off to school, the new MaisonMe collection at Maisonette is truly the sweetest. With over fifty mix and matchable options, these styles will put your child at the head of the class.

Sweet Tooth: Sugar is the ultimate sweetness, and I must admit I love it. I do know that sugar does not like me. I found this article interesting and helpful: Overcoming Sugar Addiction & How To Fix It
~ ~ ~ ~ ~

So sweet: the children's masks at Hanna Andersson. They mix and match with the clothing. Think trucks, dinos, stars, stripes and more. 
They make very cute gifts.

Friends, I hope that you find something to smile about this weekend.

What To Buy At The Serena & Lily Friends & Family Event

Serena Dugan & Lily Kanter founded their brand in 2005. They are known for the creative use of color, pattern, original textiles, inspired family spaces and great design. With five retail stores, and a big Internet presence, they offer a casual chic California point of view for home and lifestyle. And when they have a sale, it's a good one.  Save 20% sitewide at Serena & Lily From now until March 20th. Code: MUSTHAVE.  Here are some of my favorite finds.

Upholstery
I know that you will love their carefully edited collection of fine furniture and upholstery fabrics for indoors and out.  I especially like the French deco inspired Josephine Chair and Broderick Daybed. You will be sitting pretty in any of it!

The Nursery
You will love all of the inspiration for the sweetest room in the house. The Dahlia Crib Sheet is dreamy in a delft blue. If you love the idea of a gender neutral grey nursery, you are covered with these sheets and bumpers, and the Liberty and Hudson Cribs.

Lighting
Serena & Lily's lighting lineup is more inspired than ever. Any one of these luxe lights will cast a warm glow in any stylish space. The Goodman Pendant in gold is quite glam in an understated way. And The Santa Barbara Pendant in black woven rattan makes a striking statement when grouped in multiples.

Mirrors
Mirror, Mirror on the wall, Serena and Lily has the fairest of them all. Round, Square, Bone - every color and tone. Shown above is the Harper

Baskets & Bins
What a chic collection of handwoven natural fiber baskets and bins! Any one of them will help your home to stay organized with style. The colorful striped La Jolia Baskets would be very sweet for the Nursery.  The Riviera Rolling Storage Baskets are just perfect for laundry and toys.  And I love the visual contrast of the seagrass and metallics of the Belly Basket.

Wallpapers

Go for bold, try some texture, or be a wall flower. The prints and patterns available are perfect for almost any home decor.  I'm a big fan of the Grass Cloth Wallpaper in Amalfi Blue or Black.

Outdoor Collection
Serena & Lily is all about outdoor living.  The Dining Collection features a relaxed refinement. The Pacifica Dining Chairs in a beachy resin wicker makes a stylish statement. And no outdoor entertaining area is complete without an all weather rug!  Oh if I had a pool, The Riviera Lounger in rattan would be a must buy! And this Whitewashed Rattan Hurricane is perfect for the patio. It's one of my favorite things on the website! Love the leather handles. 

Cushions
You will find every color under the sun and all of the neutrals to mix with them. Have fun picking a pillow, any pillow in Serena and Lily's Cushion Color Story.

Bedding
The bedding selection at Serena & Lily is one of my favorites. You won't see these styles anywhere else. Besides linens luxe enough for the master and the guest rooms, they have the kiddos covered with style, too.  The Savoy Duvet (above ) is inspired by classic architecture. I love the sleek design on sateen that makes for a lovely dash of color. It's available in ten colorways, all with a pristine white base. I love the dreamy flexibility of the Gobi sheeting. It's simply adorned with your choice of eleven stylish shades. It is just the right touch of color and pattern for a modern twist on the classic bed! As for kids, any little girl would take her bed with cherries on top! The Cherry Duvet is super sweet.

Entertaining
Love to entertain? You are in good company at Serena & Lily! The South Seas Bar Cart has you ready to roll with this entertaining essential.  The Riviera Bar Cart might be my fave. It is one part party bucket and the other part cart. The cart features water tight bins for ice, and lots of room for bottles. For even more entertaining inspo click here.

Riviera Dog Bed

For the pampered pup! And your dog's bed should absolutely compliment your own tasteful decor. This one is cushy and oh so coastal chic!
