Barbiecore Decor

{ Via: Better Homes & Gardens }

You must have heard of the term"Barbiecore" by now.  It's all the buzz thanks to the upcoming Barbie movie with Margot Robbie. As a young girl I was Barbie obsessed, and daydreamed of having Barbie's Dream House in real life. Now we all can, because designers are thinking pink, big time! Here's how you can get the look in your own home.

Celebrate Earth Day At ABC Carpet & Home

To celebrate our planet on Earth Day, I am featuring one of my favorite NYC stores, ABC Carpet & Home. The store and their website is fabulous, and filled with inspiration. They believe in makers that create earth-kind objects. In general, their approach to sustainable design supports a healthier planet, home, and individual. Love that!

Get inspired and take yourself shopping at ABC Home

Rugs & Carpets

Let's begin with rugs. They feature in store and online the one of the largest collections of rugs in the world. Alchemy carpets are hand knotted in a fair trade factory in India. Sari silks and wools are upcycled to spin fabric for new rugs.  Every rug is 100% handmade. You just don't find that everywhere. The Essentials Collection is more moderately priced, but also hand made in India. If you are looking for wall to wall carpet, and live in the NY Tristate area, you are in luck, as they are having a 50% off sale! 

Pillows & Cushions

One of my favorite areas in the store. Everything is just so creatively displayed, and of course, handmade. You will just want to plop into a pile of pillows, poufs, and cushions. 

Bedding

Put some love into your sleep sanctuary with non-toxic bedding. These shades of pink are comforting, but you'll find any color that you are looking for. The organic bedding is mindfully handmade in India by local artisans. 

Dining & Entertaining

This department, on the first floor is displayed like a luxurious emporium. A world of coupes, tumblers, cups, carafes, and flutes await you. Not to mention the handcrafted dinnerware made by ceramicists all over the world. The organic shapes and materials are so awesome and appealing. Bonus is that they carry my favorite non-toxic, non-stick Caraway Cookware. 

Furniture

The furniture is all hand crafted from sustainably sourced wood. Choose from custom furnishings and upholstered pieces to vintage one of a kind styles. 

Lighting

A little light here and there, makes all the difference. Their design forward collection is filled with functional works of art.  It's all energy conscious, LED, and made responsibly. From floor to ceiling, these lights are never boring. 

Art & Decor

Featured in this department are fabulous candles with scents designed to bring forth uplifting positivity and calm.  One of a kind vases are handcast inside of balloons. Others are made  in France, and recycled glass bottles are given new life as Phoenician glass sculptured forms.  All of these thoughtful touches make your space a beautiful reflection of yourself.

Jewelry

Jewelry handmade with love. ABC's jewelry  respects exceptional craftsmanship as well as human and environmental rights. Celestial and ethereal, their selection is made from responsibly sourced gemstones and sustainable metals.

 Wellness

"Find a moment, lean into the calm, let go of the thoughts and listen. Your skin and spirit deserve a reprieve." I always linger in this section. It's my kind of heaven. You are instantly calmed by the aromatherapy experience of the non toxic products like "Carry Om Aromatherapy Essence, and 

"Spirit Works Space Essence."

You'll want everything in the Bath and Body department. I found the Alchemist's Kitchen organic CBD balm in fragrances like Lemongrass. The Face Steam and Bath Tea, and all of the intentional objects to aid your well being, are so interesting. 

Natural Beauty

This is another fun department with non toxic natural makeup and skincare. Stocked is olive oil lipstick, Sundays non toxic nail polish, Eve Perez vanilla highlighter, and so many more unique and healthy products.
