Decor that Makes you Spin

February 16th, 2009 by CoolThings

Check out what I found late one night while I was aimlessly surfing the net! I love the idea of a rotating book shelf.

Want to change the decor of your room? Just spin it to a new side!

Need a quick clean up? Stash the mess on one side and spin it out of sight!

Just want a cool place to keep your books and knick knacks? Sit back and admire.

Inmod.com has this great piece and one day I’ll get it … one happy day.

Yes, It is a Vase

February 2nd, 2009 by CoolThings

If you have read my blog before, you already know that I love pieces that look great even when they are not being used. For example, I purchased these lovely, mosaic vases at target.com with no intention of ever putting anything in them. I used one as a bookend and the other as an accent on my sofa table. Then, one day a friend, who I have not seen in a while, paid me a surprise visit and brought flowers as a gift. I don’t normally keep flowers in my house becasue my two cats keep mistaking the flowers for their afternoon snack, so I didn’t have a flower vase handy - or so I thought. I took one of my mosaic vases (the ones that I don’t use as vases), and discovered that they look just as amazing with flowers in them! Imagine that!

Wild about Pillows

I love wildlife about as much as I love to decorate and now I have found a fantastic was to enjoy both! I have discovered fabulous, animal-shaped, throw pillows by Fauna at designpublic.com. They are a wonderful way to have as many animals as I want without the mess. With just about any animal from cats and dogs to zebras and elephants, you can give any room a wild style that is adorable at the same time. They are also the perfect size for kids to hug and love just like their favorite stuffed animals. Made with 100% cotton and water-based ink they are just $24 a pop, making it affordable for you to enjoy the wild life.

A Place to Rest my Weary Bones

December 9th, 2008 by CoolThings

The thing I want most right now? This stylish sectional that will give my living room a fresh look that is inviting and happy. I saw it in the store and instantly fell in love! I sat down and just knew I had to have it. I don’t have it yet, but I will get it. I know I will, because everyone wants a place to sit and relax when they come home from a long day at work, and the people at the Eurway store are starting to get annoyed that I keep showing up to lounge.

I don’t care what people say, the sofa is the focal point in the room. Find one cool couch and you will have very little to do as far as sprucing your place up to impress. And to me this piece is a great starting point. There is plenty of room for guests to sit which equals plenty of room for you to relax when you are by yourself. The fact that it is cool and chic is a bonus!

Check it out at www.eurway.com if you too fell completely in love with this sofa.
