Home decor galore at Bae

Don't get me wrong, I love New York. But I have to confess, ever since I visited San Francisco last March, we've been having an emotional affair. San Francisco has all of the great qualities of New York and, well, not so many of the less desirable ones. One of those great qualities is home decor store, Bae. They offer some truly special stuff, take a look...




*love* these vases








...and those pillows...



...and these vases!

Eco chic furniture and accessories

So, I know that "green" and "eco-friendly" items aren't exactly new buzzwords anymore. But I still love when I find a product that is made from recycled glass or reclaimed wood. What's even better is if the product is designed well and affordable. It's hard to find all of those things from one seller (especially affordability), but VivaTerra comes close!

I don't know why I like these, they're kitsch, but I like these

Good Stuff for Cheap!

It's not often I pass by or see a Pier 1. Every now and then I look up their site to see what they have going on. I was pleasantly surprised this time-look at some of the goodies I found!


4-drawer storage boxes, only $10 dollars. I really like the fuchsia, but I like the green too...


I'd want to just have these on the living room floor, but I'm sure my dog would decide they're his new beds- stool sized and papasan sized. Patterned Papasan Cushions $20 & $80



Flocked leaves pillow garnet, $18, they also have this on clearance with blue leaves.



A tulip table! tulip end table $129


I really like the natural striation of the bamboo on these vases, they also come in deep red. Green Bamboo Vases $35-$55



Glass Water Bottle Carafes with Lids
$18 each



These are too nice, and I've been looking for bowls! Assorted Blue & White Bowls
$5 each


Very, very cute. Felt petals pillow $30



I saw this last year and swooned! Now it's very on sale. Emmeline blue cafe shelving $99.98!!


I like the French country look of this console. Dexter console table $179


Turquoise dotted tumblers, $3 to $3.50. These look a lot more expensive than they really are, and they also come in green.


Great on the deck or patio, but I would end up getting all three. Raja pedestal tables, $29.98, metal

Garden inspired ceramics

I went to college in Providence, RI surrounded by many great designers, and I try to keep an eye on what the art community up there is doing. My most recent discovery I had to share with you! Asya Palatova is a ceramicist who founded "Gleena" in 2002. Her cups, bowls, plate, vases, and other vessels are wonderfully delicate and lovingly crafted. I absolutely love the illustrations she uses, which often include shells, plants, and beautiful script. Being instantly drawn to handmade objects with an organic look and feel, I could easily have a whole cupboard of her work. Check out her website, or go to her Etsy store for more.
