Strut Coffee Table

If you’ve seen this before, sorry for the repeat. If you haven’t, may I call attention to the simple structural design and nice color choices?

“Stucture and design are one with the Strut. A proud stance for any gathering. Choose ivory or robin’s egg blue for a subtle impact, or dark olive or watermelon for more punch power.”

Powder-coated steel frame with a durable polyurethane finish over MDF for the top.

14H x 54W

Home Sweet Home

Like Katie, I’m surprised I haven’t reached total annoyance level with vinyl wall decor. (What’s wrong with us???)

Anyway, this “Home Sweet Home” vinyl decor is something I’d actually put on my walls. It’s nice and large in scale (34″ x 4″) and would look quite nice on a sparse wall.

“Decorate any wall you wish with pressure sensitive application. Wall Words are not reusable. Made in the USA.”

Season Metal Lantern

This looks like it would add a nice patterned glow to your room. It doesn’t specify whether it’s appropriate for outdoors, but it sure looks like you could set a nice outdoor soirée using these for centerpieces.

Fine Bone China Plates

Though this might be slightly more expensive than your average plate, it certainly sounds nice to say, “Please bring out the fine bone china”… as well as that, it looks to have an awfully nice black and white pattern which would probably push it into the ‘timeless’ category.

Hand wash.

Lexon Foam Radio

A new clever foam radio from Lexon…

This funky little radio by Elise Berthier is pretty basic – a straightforward AM/FM radio encased in a slab of foam – but produces surprisingly good sound, thanks to its built-in amplifier. Takes 4 AAA batteries (included). Also available in black.

Care instructions: Avoid getting wet. Dust with a soft, dry cloth

Price: $49.00

Copper Shade suspension light

This sounds like it required some very precise scientific procedures, which makes it that much more impressive.

“The appearance of the Copper Shade is achieved by converting copper into a vapor, and then depositing the vapor on the interior of the plastic dome. This ‘vacuum-metalized’ film of copper is only microns thick.”

17.75″ diameter dome

Price: $400.00

Endless Necklace

I swear I’ve made a bracelet just like this, except it broke and fell off somewhere because I used lesser quality supplies.

“The Endless Necklace is constructed of functional jewelry closures, mimicking the form of the classic pearl necklace but rendered entirely in clasps. This deceptively simple necklace belies its historic influence.”

Butterfly Collection Vase

Each of these vases are handmade and therefore vary slightly…I like how they are rather tall and skinny with just a touch of detail.
