Uncommonly Good
I'm just going to admit right now that I have not even started to shop for Christmas. I'm totally a last-minute holiday shopper. Ok, that's not the complete picture--I mean, I do think about gifts before buying them, I don't just grab whatever I find. But, sometimes, it's a struggle to think of something really special. Honestly, I would rather plan the food and the decorations than the gifts, for Christmas. It's kinda hard to find things for certain people. You know what I mean? Or maybe I need to get more creative and be a better planner. Anyway, since we are in the gift-giving time of year, I thought you all might like a few gift ideas from a fabulous company.
I want to introduce you to Brooklyn-based UncommonGoods, a site with truly unique wares. They are passionate about offering beautifully handcrafted items, being green in everything they do, and giving back, to share the wealth. Constantly looking for treasures from around America, and working closely with artists and makers to develop their collections, UncommonGoods is a great source for all of those hard-to-shop-for gift recipients on your holiday shopping list. I was seriously impressed, when I discovered their gorgeous housewares, gift items, and artwork. It was really hard to choose my favourites, but I've narrowed it down to the things I personally would love to have. I hope you will love them, too!
This picture takes me to my happy place.
This rug would look so gorgeous in my lounge area!
I love the abstract quality of this print.
I love the organic look of these decor items (1, 2, 3, and 4). They would all make great housewarming gifts.
I love all things bird-inspired, like this print.
I could stare at this paper art for hours.
I love this beautiful piece, made from a real aspen leaf.

fresh & lovely rooms
I'm in love with the look of light, airy rooms with pops of colour and fun patterns, especially leafy and floral prints juxtaposed with geometric prints, with some vintage and boho touches. A few wooden pieces here and there add a warm, earthy element to a space. I also love the freshness of greenery in a room--even though I'm not much of a greenthumb myself! It's such a liveable, laid-back look. I'm going for that kind of style in our lounge-dining open-plan space. I just need a couple more fabulous pieces (and fewer toys scattered everywhere!), and I think it will be getting there. These rooms are totally inspiring me today. Hope you'll enjoy them, too.

Modern Glamour
You all know I love a little glamour. Just as accessories make an outfit, such as a gorgeous statement necklace adding the perfect touch to a dress, beautiful decorative accents, unique artworks, and statement-making furniture can make a room.
Furniture company Modani challenged me to reflect my fashion style in a living room. When I looked through my favourite fashion images and my favourite living rooms, I realized that I love seeing a touch of glamour in both.
I'm envisioning a beautiful living room using some of my favourite colours, blue, pink, lilac, grey, white, chocolate, and gold, with a few modern furniture pieces, a handful of glamorous accessories, great lighting, bold patterned textiles, some warm wooden elements, and eye-catching artwork. This is the kind of lounge room I would love to spend busy family days in, and then wind down in the evenings with a nice glass of wine, amid candlelight.

Do you like a little modern glamour in your living room? What stylish decor accents do you love?
