Decorative items featuring Britain's Union Jack flag motif are all the rage around the globe.

The cream linen pillow … [Read more...]

Marian LaFrance-Silverman convinced son Brian to join her at Pillows by Dezign. Their goal is to offer affordable designer fabric pillows with an average price of $59. This is a buy if you count the  included down/feather … [Read more...]

Citrus Color Twists

citrus color - lime green home decorating accessories pillows and rugs from piecesinc.com via Atticmag

Breathe life into an old space with the punch of citrus color accessories. Decorating inspiration can come from a variety of sources; a favorite painting, a souvenir purchased on vacation or a well-worn quilt. But I never expected to find inspiration for a design post in a bag of M&Ms. Yet that's just what happened. The complementary candy colors of saturated orange and … [Read more...]

My Search For Os De Mouton Chairs

March 13, 2011 by Allison 27 Comments

antique walnut French os de mouton chairs covered in honey color linen - Atticmag

My hunt for os de mouton chairs proved that perseverance has its rewards, even in decorating. Over a year ago, I entered a local antique store I don't go to very often.  Oh, they have lovely things but not so lovely prices.  Why torture myself.  I had been longing for a pair of French os de mouton chairs to use by the great room fireplace.  Those have curvy "sheep bone" … [Read more...]

Stain resistant super fabrics make life easier for everyone. What do the luxurious super fabrics above have in common with sleeping beauty's bed below?  Both are made with stain, water, bacteria and odor resistant Crypton fabrics.

suzani - handmade embroidered suzani pillows - Atticmag

Handmade suzani textiles from Asia bring history into our homes. I first noticed Suzani textiles in magazines three years ago, and purchased a pair of pillow covers on eBay. A month later they arrived wrapped in handmade brown paper.  The rolled customs form traveled safely tucked under twine held by a brown wax seal nearly 7,000 miles to reach my doorstep.  Intrigued,  I was … [Read more...]

Kilim Rug Pillows

February 19, 2009 by Jane T Leave a Comment

kilim rug pillows - pillow made from flat-woven rug remnants -Tribal Home via Atticmag

Geometric kilim rug pillows are colorful and durable accessories made from repurposed flat-weave rugs. I often see rugs that are too threadbare to warrant investing time or money in to repair so using them for kilim rug pillows makes sense. Flat woven rugs like kilims are particularly susceptible to wear because they do not have a pile, thus the warps are subjected to a lot of … [Read more...]
