Her Home

I recently discovered Given Campbell’s eye-catching wallpaper designs.  Ya know that sound you hear when you pull back the tab on a cold can of Coca-Cola...that metallic pop followed by effervescent fizz?  Yeah, Given Campell's wallpaper is kinda like that. 

Pillows are fluffy indulgences that can perk up a place.  I discovered a fun little online store called the PilloShop (see this blog's featured image) that inspired me to procure a parade of posh options in a variety of styles and price points. Peruse the pillows and enjoy!

Looking for something to do this Saturday?  Head south...12South, that is!  The annual 12South Home Tour is this Saturday, April 17th.  Tickets go on sale at 10:30 a.m.

I've begun my "under covers" investigation for new bed linens.  After winter's hibernation, I think I'm gonna be ready for some fresh bed dressing by spring time.

I was so happy when Tuesday Morning opened in Green Hills last fall.  When it comes to home decor and random tscotckes to spruce up spaces, I've always found Tuesday Morning stores to be treasure troves. 

Shopping for "uniques" in Hillsboro Village is always fun.  With mainstays Pangea and Fire Finch, I've never been at a loss for finding just the perfect housewarming gift or quirkily wonderful accessory to jazz up a tabletop.  When Retropolitan hit 21st Avenue last year, my personal shopping Trifecta for Hillsboro Village was complete.  Retropolitan is a hip shop full of fun, affordable options for design-it-herselfers.

In honor of "the neighborhood issue," I'm going to highlight a few 'hood-specific home decor shops for you throughout the month.  And today, I begin with a shop from my corner of Nashville: Nouveau Classics. 

Normally, I'm prone to purge.  However, in the spirit of frugality and environmentality (did I just invent a word?!) so common these days, I'm trying to be more resourceful.  When we emptied a tub o' Cool Whip on Christmas day, I kept and repurposed it to be a travel dog food bowl.  Go me!

Here it is, ladies and gents!  Pantone Inc., the corporate proprietor of the definitive, universal color matching system, decrees Turquoise (specifically, 15-5519 TCX) is the hue that's in for Twenty-Ten. 

Still hoping to get Christmas cards out to all your friends, family, colleagues and acquaintances before Kringle shows up next week?  First of all, good luck with that! 

Secondly, don't have a card attack. The boxed greetings at stores are on sale now, though you might be picking through the slim selection that remain on store shelves.
