Pantone named their color of the year. Drum roll please..............Congrats to TANGERINE TANGO!!!
If you haven't already seen it then get ready to see it everywhere. Home decor, fashion, accessories, etc, etc, etc...
When applied correctly this color can make a huge statement or just add a pop of fun anc color where needed.

Tile Tuesday has come (and gone!). Yes, we are cheating it's Wednesday...oops. We have some amazing products though and wanted to start Tile Tuesday's off with a bang.
The product we are going to show you today is a glass tile in the Skylights collection from Arizona Tile (www.arizonatile.com). It has actually been around for a couple years, but they keep improving on it and adding more colors, textures, finishes and sizes. The collection has just expanded even further with the Skylights Melange, which is a mixture of glass and stone. Plus it is priced very reasonably, which is why we love it so much.




Welcome to the very first Furniture Friday! Hopefully this will be a bi-weekly post that you can look forward too. It'll keep you informed on the newest trends and styles from our various vendors and it'll get our creative juices flowing too. (If we get ambitious enough, expect Tile Tuesdays to come along too!) Enjoy and Happy FRIDAY!!!!

As mentioned in previous posts we went to Las Vegas for the Interior Design Trade Show recently. We were inspired, wowed, and very very tired by the end of day three. The Las Vegas Market has to really be seen in order to completely understand the magnitude of it. There are 3 buildings all over 14 stories high FILLED with vendors who sell furniture, rugs, art, accessories...pretty much anything you can put into (or out) of a home they offer it. Only the newest pieces are displayed which means that designers see the new trends about 4 months before any retailer has it on their floor. Its very intimidating but VERY cool for any designer. While there, we were able to find (and reconnect!) with several companys.
Companies we were particullary wowed by:
Adriana Hoyos (Furnture & Accessories) http://adrianahoyos.com/
Arteriors (Art & Accessories) www.arteriorshome.com
Company C (indoor & outdoor rugs, pillows and other colorful accessories) www.companyc.com
Four Hands (Furniture, Lighting, Art & Accessories) www.fourhands.com
Greenington (Bamboo Furniture) www.greenington.com
James De Wulf (Concrete Furniture) http://dwconcrete.com/furniture.html
Lamp Works (Lighting) www.lampworks.com
My Screen Gems (Screens) www.myscreengems.com
Planika (amazingly awesome fireplaces, fire tables, outdoor fire stands...you have to see it to really get the jist!) www.planikafires.com
Peter Lik Photography (large scale art & photography) www.lik.com
Safavieh (Rugs, Furniture & Accessories) http://safavieh.com/
**NOTE: Most of these companies are to the trade only. And guess what....we are trade :) So if you see something you like call us!
Liz is going back to Market at the end of the month. This time however she is going to look at "Surfaces" i.e. Countertops, Tile, etc... She is sure to be wowed yet again and we will be sure to post our findings!
