I ain't hatin'

but I'm wondering - what's up with Trendy Wendys?

Shouldn't we be mindful of how many bona-fide, beat-to-death, it'll be made in resin and sold at Big Lots, trends we pack into a space - room or home? It's something I fret over constantly while making decisions on my big-fat-reno (and decorating) project.

So, I noticed this trend fest as I was looking at the work of Scout Design - two really cool chicks who wear some kick-ass fashion and got it going on every which way. Like their own design firm, real clients, and cute names. And decorating street cred. And the clothes.

But is this okay in Design World? 

1.antlers
2.tolix
3.animal rack
4.moroccan wedding blanket
5. mongolian lamb pillow
6. cow hide rug
7. "gallery" walls
8. vintage suzani

  And don't think I don't see those "gallery" walls. Two of them.

suzani
Then, snap, there's yer vintage Suzani right there.

Taken by themselves, those are all lovely elements. But a greatest hits list of trends...

A concern? Or not a concern?

Just asking.

A piece for me

Sketch42 girl picked out this Made Goods stool as her fave piece of the NYIGF. I have to agree with her that it is super versatile and I can think of at least 3 rooms I could use this in. I love it! I can't wait to decide where this little beauty is gonna go in my house!
