I am back! Haven’t fallen off the face of the earth! I’m here–promise! It was a nice long vacation, even though I spent most of it sick on the couch! My couch time led me to a few new design catalogs since I spent most of it enjoying one of my favorite pastimes, magazine flipping! I thought I would share a couple of new catalogs with you and a few of my old, but good ones. Maybe you will enjoy receiving them as much as I do. Here’s a tip: pull your fave designs & start a design binder so you have something to draw inspiration from when the urge to redecorate strikes!
The newest catalog I received that I really enjoyed was Chiasso. What really caught my attention was magnetic flower art, which was a series of magnetic thumbtacks that you stuck into the wall, then attached the complimentary flowers to. So interesting & innovative! I also really liked their rococo wall decals which could accent a room in such an easy way. Overall, the catalog was packed with cool stuff I hadn’t seen before, which was very refreshing. As much as I enjoy Pottery Barn, it bores me to tears because every single catalog looks exactly the same. So…here are a few others that I steal ideas from:
Ballard Designs-customizable furniture & decor or varying styles
Room & Board-beautiful, classic furniture
Home Decorators Collection-fairly traditional decor
Wisteria-mix of modern & traditional decor
Garnet Hill-features unique bedding, kids & adults
Land of Nod-kids furniture, bedding & toys; little sibling of crate & barrel
CB2-uber modern; modern sister to crate & barrel
