I picked this up recently on a whim (not sure what I was actually out shopping for). I've been loving it! A simple, all natural, deliciously-fresh-smelling spray. Perfect for giving your baby's nursery/playroom a great signature scent. Spray in the room as an air freshener, toys, changing area, diaper pail, car seat, stroller etc. Made from pure essential oils, so it's easy on the little guys...(but don't spray it on them, obviously)!

So, I'm sure you kinda noticed that I've been super into all things wool/knit etc. Apparently I'm going through a "warming" phase - trying to bring some warmth to my (overtly minimalist-modern) home through textures and natural materials. Saw these wool felted bowls yesterday in the Anthropologie sale nook, and I can't get them out of my head! (I have a golden rule, when shopping for things I don't (really) need, if I am still thinking about something two days later - i probably should go back and get it.) So these bowls - non uniform, rustic, natural, and totally toasty. Only issue was, what would I use them for to justify the purchase? It finally dawned on me in the early morning hours - these would be perfect planters! I want to fill them with soil and plants, and give them a home on the windowsill above my kitchen sink!! Colorful, drainable, earthy, and completely contrasting my clean-lined kitchen... I'll let you know how it turns out - with a DIY of course! Wish me luck... : )
Who hasn't ogled over the knitted poufs by Christien Meindertsma at Flocks, or recently over at DWR?? But common, they are hand-knit on gigantic needles by Meindertsma herself - and spending $1,360 for an ottoman is sooooo not happening!
CB2 introduced it's new line for spring today --- and they've done it again! Here you have it folks, a frugal masterpiece!
CB2 Knit Pouf $79.95 Kudos CB2!
The latest piece of furniture acquired in our home is my "home office" desk, which we nestled into a nook in the hallway between the bedrooms (I had been working at my husbands desk, the dining room table, the kitchen bar - needed a settlement). Once I assembled, installed, and set up shop, I found myself constantly on the lookout for accessories and gimmicks to make the space even more individual and even more functional... I am currently obsessing over "catchalls" - a place to drop your phone, keys, spare change, mail, jewelry etc.
I coveted this one, but it was $58.00...... not $58.00 anymore!!!
