Happy Groundhog Day everyone, just another step closer to Spring even though Punxsutawney Phil saw his shadow (what does a groundhog know anyway?). I came across this rug company the other day and they’re actually having a sale on Gilt today so I figured I’d go ahead and mention them to all of you.

NuLoom makes contemporary flokati and hand- knotted wool rugs that would add a great accent to any room.  They carry a variety of designs that are both masculine and feminine (pictured above) so there’s a little something for everyone. Go ahead and check them out at nuLoom.com!

First off a very happy belated new year to everyone! Let’s hope 2010 is a bit happier than 2009! As I mentioned a few posts back, autumn brought some changes to our family and I’m thrilled to announce that Joe and I are expecting our first baby. The little guy is due in May (the day before my birthday) and we couldn’t be more excited. That being said, between getting ready for our new addition and working on some new projects, I’ve let the blog fall a bit behind.

So to kick off the new year I thought I’d share some fun goodies from Areaware. Actually, one of our friends gave us our first baby gift from here and I absolutely loved it. Areaware is a “New York City based manufacturer and distributor renowned for unique design products with an emphasis on forward thinking technologies and original expression.”  All of their products are fun and cheeky with a modern twist. They also have a fabulous children’s line “Areaware Jr.“, which I’m sure I’ll be purchasing plenty of items from.

Here’s to a fabulous 2010!

New Orleans is hands down one of my favorite American cities. How can you not love a city that has amazing live music, fabulous food, open container laws and Reggie Bush? Laissez les bon temps roulez! Another aspect of the city that is truly world class is its antique shops. Now in full disclosure, during my NO visits I haven’t ventured out to shops outside the French Quarter, but the WSJ just wrote about a fabulous shop called Perch. located in the Garden District.

I love this little shop and can’t wait to visit in person! To me, they have the perfect combination of antiques with a modern twist with colors and textiles that are fresh and fun. The prices are a bit steep, but just by judging from their website, I can tell it would be a great place to go for inspiration (like the above lucite table, which I think you could get a similar look by using the Peekaboo console from CB2 and some fun wall decals).

Anyway, check out their website. I can truly say I love everything featured in this shop and I’m also thinking a New Orleans trip is definitely in my near future!
