The High Point Furniture Market

(Century Furniture, Lisa Mende Blog)

 
I wasn't able to go to High Point Furniture Market, but through blogs and Pinterest I was able to see some of the highlights from the show.
 
Some of the bloggers that went to High Point are...  Velvet and Linen, Lisa Mende, Nest by Tamara,  and  Quintessence Blog. 
These are some of the highlights from the web...

Brook from Velvet and Linen took this photo of this great ottoman by Pearson Furniture. 
It looks like this shape is very strong for next year. 




 

A feel of the orient was present, these jars from Pearson.

Blue is still big!

  Beacon Hill has created a new partnership with Sachin and Babi Ahkiwalia, founders of Ankasa Iconic to bring their exquisite vision to Beacon Hill.

 Its a beautiful line of fabric.






 

I'm happy to see this style of chair at High Point, love it!

A little secret....Sit in this style of chair before buying as a dinning room chair. 
 If the slates are flat it can be comfortable.

 I wanted to buy some for my dinning room table and didn't because the slates in the back were round and not real comfy..

Blue pottery is still the thing....Tina over at The Enchanted Home carries these beauties on her on-line store.

We wish we could see more of this rug. It is so pretty.

The drapery has a playful fabric with an influence from India. Notice how the map grounds all the color in the room.

The blue paisley patterned wall paper is wonderful. This Indian classic is showing up in fashion and home decor.

A shop in Summerland California showed so many items with this influence. 

Again, we all flipped over Mark Sikes' home. The wall paper and fabrics in the room display this distinct rich feel.

This bedroom was beautifully done with this style. The wall paper and fabrics on the bed are well coordinated. The tad of turquoise adds interest to the design.
Designers Tilton & Fenwick

We love this look and find it interesting and creative. Designer Michael Smith's living room  has so many patterns and artistic objects placed around the room.The screen is amazing. What do you think?






Thanks again, Julie and Danni

Decor has gone to the dogs!

We thought you all might want to see something besides Christmas, And what else but Dogs! Like they say a dog is a man's best friend. Do you think this hound can keep up with the story?
( Antique and design Magazine)

So many designers show their work along with their dogs in the pictures. The coats of these cute pups are a perfect match to the fabrics used in this room.

We are in love with this image. Again, the dogs match the decor!
( Munger Interiors)

We know how he feels. All the hustle and bustle at this time of year just wears a pup out.

This little guy is worn out watching his owner (Mona) decorate her tree. It must be so warm and cozy all wrapped up in his fluffy blanket.
