BEAUTY QUEEN

I love the rich color and pattern on this Mexican coverlet from l'aviva home. The textile is handcrafted on muslin with cotton embroidery thread by the Otomi Indians and said to be inspired by the wall painting on the cliffs in Hidalgo.  I would love to throw this on my bed in the summer months with a simple white sheet underneath.

Light It Up

It's all about lighting, here at The Shop. All our overhead lights have dimmers and we prefer an unholy glow in the room, to just about anything else. To prepare for this dormant winter season (yeah right) I've decided that a little mood lighting is just what I need in the bedroom.
Here is one of my favorites, the Solo pendant, from Re-Surface (outta Brooklyn). The microphone shaped pendant comes in a woodgrain or white/black lacquer finish and adds that purrrfect gleam to a room...wink wink.

In my bedroom, I've hung with an antique hook, found at some flea mart and just nailed straight into the grout.

Check one two, one two...
