Inspiration at the AD Home Design Show

We recently went to NY for the Architectural Digest Hone Design Show and saw some great things and discovered some new fun companies!

First was Michelle Hatch New York a company that specializes in custom silver nail-head studded pillows. They're super fun and modern, but not over the top! Below are some beautiful coral colored pillows from her collection.


The next find was Pat Warwick, a local ceramic artist from Warren, Rhode Island. Her nautical themed tables were my favorite! Here's a few pieces that I really loved.



She even does custom installations! Check out this backspash!


Lastly is Mark MacKinnon from thephotoraphersplace.com who specializes in great landscape and beach photography that is interesting and relaxing. Prefect for a beach house!


Overall a successful trip!

New Items for the Shop!

While we were at the New York Gift Fair we picked up some really great new lines for the shop. One of them is Cococozy, a new online shop by a fellow blogger named Coco. Here is a sneak peak of some of the throws that we ordered!

Food and Entertaining

Try out our Bella Cucina Roasted Sweet Balsamic Peppers in a Bruschetta recipe I
share at our Simpler Pleasures facebook page.

No better time than now to eat healthy! Trying two pinches of our Bella Cucina Savory Salt with Rosemary and Lavender gives a relaxing twist to my scrambed omelette---yum!
