A throw blanket can really enhance a couch or bed...or make it look terrible if its all wrong. I think these are all right.

Hallway Lighting for 8' Ceilings
I need 2 ceiling fixtures for my entryway and hallway to replace the cheapo contractor ones that look awfully mammy to me. Naturally I head to LampsPlus.com and Schoolhouseelectric.com to start the search, but there are lots of stores that have options. Amazon also had some inexpensive choices and Etsy is great for vintage and more eclectic lamps. In the end I think I'll mix and match fixtures and shades to get the exact look I want.

Entertainment Consoles
While, built-ins are what I'm really after, that may be a long time coming. So for the meantime, I am looking for an entertainment console that's at least a little interesting, dark wood, holds a 42" plasma and has storage for dvds.
Entryway Tables
I'm looking for an entryway table that is very shallow, and not too ornate. I struggle between wanting it to be purely well-designed and needing a place to stow hats, gloves and shoes.
West Elm Rustic Acacia $349
(I have wanted this for over a year. It is the perfect 10 inches in depth I can spare)
Ikea Expedit Sofa Table $59.99
Pillows
Reasonably priced pillows are surprisingly hard to find. I am trying to figure out how to do some
fabric printing of my own but these pillows from West Elm are so full of personality it made me
think twice.
Pretty tough for a yellow pillow.
