This classic, sleek, and cozy bed is perfect for a single gal or a couple that needs to find something to satisfy both parties. The tufted head and footboard allow it to sit in a boudoir. However, the dark stain and clean lines will blend nicely in a newlywed’s master bedroom. The velvet fabric comes in five deep rich color options and the frame sizes range from full to California king.

All you museum goers know the best place to shop is the museum gift shop. The MoMa went a step farther when they opened up stores all around the New York City area. The store is filled with gadgets and gizmos great for adults and children. I found a great coffee table that looks nice and modern for the parents but low enough for children. What a great table for coloring. It even has a built in storage for the coloring books!

Are you a new parent? Are you scared your children will spill or ruin your new carpet? Well, here is any easy solution. I found a “Create your Own” carpeting system at Design Within Reach. You now have the ability to buy individual carpeted tiles and use them anywhere and anyway your heart desires. First, choose from an array of color and textures. Second, create the pattern of your choice. Do you want an area rug, runner, or wall-to-wall carpeting? Finally, order! To install, position the tiles in the configuration you chose and press down. Each tile is backed with small, low-tack adhesive dots for mess-free installation. If one is stained just pop it out and add another. No waste!

Lighting is an imperative part of decorating. The right source, style, and lighting level can create any mood. I found the most amazing pair of Dorothy Draper sconces from 1940’s at Alan Moss. The store is located in New York City but it is accessible from any home. Their website is easy to follow and loaded with all kinds of stylish pieces. Alan Moss has a retro feel but it can fit almost any home from a boudoir to the ultimate bachelors pad.

It is a charming store filled with Parisian antique furniture, antique chandeliers, antique artwork, candles, throws, etc…The store also offers custom mirrored and lucite furniture! If you are ever in New York this is a must see. Until then, check out the website and do some shopping from there!
