How hot would these lights look in a pool for a summer pool party? Or a reception by a pool? Or anything by a freaking pool? The Splash Lights are made by CB2 and feature frosted domes which house bright LED lights. The lights can be mounted or floated. Hot to death.

Hands down nothing got me more giddy than seeing the Missoni Home display at ICFF. The Missoni palette is one of my absolute favorites and seeing it translated to textiles for the home excited me. The items in person are so vivid and although it feels busy it somehow just works. Some of what is available for 2006 is bedding, bath, art rugs and tabletop items.

Loved the display at ICFF for The Rug Company and was enjoying the fact that a lot of great fashion designers were featured. The Rug Company features an extensive list of designers from Diane von Furstenberg and Marni to Matthew Williamson and Vivienne Westwood, each offering gorgeous designs in their own signature style.

Flipping through back issues of Martha Stewart and found this beautiful seaside-inspired bathroom. The sealife is actually découpaged illustrations taken from a clipart book. The layers of paper give each illustration a great texture. Beautiful.

The current topic of interest is flowers for Mother’s Day over at Apartment Therapy‘s Open Thread 199. I remembered Red Envelope’s new(ish) Flowers by the Month and though I’d also post them here. These bouquets show up monthly in chic cylindrical ceramic vases with little to no filler. Great selection of flowers here and you can choose to send them for 3 months, 6 months and 12 months.
The May, June and July bouquets.
Amit alerted me to these sweet lamps made by artist Adam Frank. Beautifully delicate acid-etched forms provide a wonderfully detailed impression. A very dramatic effect.
NEST Lumen, $48.
