Gorgeous nature-inspired decor - vases, illuminaries, tealights, etc.

My trip to Boston in February left me with tons of inspiration and business cards from the plethora of adorable shops and boutiques. One of those shops was E.R. Butler & Co.; known for it's fine architectural details, but what made my jaw drop was the beautiful porcelain treasures and jewelry. Here are a few of my favs. -

The Ted Muehling pieces were simply amazing - the candlesticks, and the exceptionally delicate porcelain vases and candle holders. I'm especially drawn to objects with elements taken from nature - so the "coral" luminaries and tulip tea light especially.








They also have a lot of unique, and stunning jewelry like these cuffs by Darcy Miro.

E.R. Butler also has showrooms in NYC and Florence. See the site for details.
I want to thank Nina, at E.R. Butler, who was super helpful and enthusiastic to answer questions during my visit. It's always great to meet someone passionate about what they do!

Chic and easy DIY

Hanging a striking canvas in place of a headboard creates instant drama. I also think the mirrors here are great because they open up the bedroom so much! Image via HGTV


One of my favorite headboard ideas, and so easy! Just install a curtain rod to the wall, drape your favorite fabric or quilt, and instant headboard! via Martha Stewart



Two great ideas from Martha Stewart for hiding tvs. Top, a "TV cozy," just pick out a fabric you wouldn't mind looking at all the time, and with a few simple stitches you have pretty tv camo. Or install a simple clean roller shade at the top of your tv cabinet for super easy hide and reveal.


From Domino readers, you can pick up some cheap frames from a place like target, collect your favorite paper or fabrics, and frame them as art. It's inexpensive, and you won't feel guilt if you get tired of something and rotate it out with something new.



Want moulding but lack the budget? Paint some! grab some painters tape and a level to create an even line around the wall, and create the illusion of moulding in any color you desire. Via Domino



Some bathroom tips from Martha Stewart again. For a one-of-a-kind soap dish, epoxy two shells backs facing one another. Instead of ho-hum towel hooks, screw in some stylish knobs!
