We now carry Bungalow 5!

We loved EVERYTHING about the Washington DC Victorian Row house featured recently in House Beautiful:

The "parfait of pinks" featured in the living room (Sorry, David, the formal living room in the new house may be pink....):




the cast concrete table base in the dinning room (might just have to copy that too...)




and the use of bold pattern curtains in the family room:




We were also excited to see a bedside table that we love from Bungalow 5 (a new line we now carry) featured in the master bedroom:



We have picked the Jacqui side table and chest for a client's LBJ bedroom:






We are expecting them to arrive soon with other Bungalow 5 goodies!  Visit Bungalow5.com online and let us know if we can add something to our order for you :)

When style is your quest and anything from shoes and purses to rugs, lamps, paintings, prints, plates, trays, etc. are your idea of treasure, it's not uncommon to find yourself cruising the endless listings of ebay looking for just that perfect little purchase. And while those congratulatory words "You have won your item..." affirm your skills as an out-bidder... the alternative often leaves you sad that your prize slipped into the hands of another. So while we looove, Lonny's ebay choice for this reclaimed wood Farmhouse Table:

...for all reasons relating to charming picnics,  plein-air dinner parties, a smorgasbord of colorful plates and delicious dishes,  fun company, breezy linens, fresh flowers, and candlelight...




...It is just simply too HOT to be outside having a picnic in Texas right now...By the time we can go outside again without completely melting, that Farmhouse table will be long gone.  So, it was with a sigh of relief that I came across this darling Noir table available for purchase now and still in the fall:
Reclaimed Farm House Table
$2985

It's a perfect match without that pesky risk of not being there when I want it. Crisis averted. Don't you want one too?
