Making a House a Home
Pat's Favorite New Thing for Spring
Pat Bokina has returned from the Atlanta home markets, where she found beautiful, elegant, and unique items for our Gift Galleries. She’s thrilled to add the advanced technology and artistry of Bulova to our extensive collection of wall clocks. Included with her new finds are weather resistant indoor/outdoor clocks. Keep track of time while relaxing on your patios, decks, and screened-in porches.
In the Conservatory
Our conservatory is blooming with new springtime faux flowers, bird feeders, and birdhouses—including an Oprah’s Favorite! Indoor/outdoor mats are great for patios and kids’ play rooms. DEET-free egg diffusers, yard sticks, and candles are a decorative and safe way to keep mosquitos at bay while you enjoy the great outdoors. Find a beautiful selection of cast stone and bronze garden sculptures (pictured) entirely handmade in the California desert. Inspired by nature, these lightweight metallic designs are simple, creative & playful.
Nancy’s Favorite New Thing for Spring
Our Housewares buyer, Nancy Jones, has made her way through hundreds of products at the Atlanta and Chicago home markets to bring you the most ingenious items for your kitchen. She’s super excited about Fancy Panz, featured on the Today Show & Rachel Ray. It’s a clever system for dressing up, transporting, and protecting foil pans. When you leave the party, just take out the disposable pan and bring your Fancy Panz home with you.
Fresh Items for Al Fresco Dining
Outdoor dining will soon be a “thing”—be prepared with fabulous new melamine dishes and serveware. Tuscan Grove, Lemon Basil, and Papillon melamine patterns by Michel Design Works pop with the refreshing bright colors of the season. We’ve brought in two Oprah’s Favorites: 1) The VIDA Alegria collection of pearl-edged melamine dinner and serveware with
distinctive Beatriz Ball flair. 2) Floral Sketchbook sculpted dinner plates and salad bowls in pale pink, blue, and green poppies. A garden-party essential.
Nora Fleming
Nora Fleming delights us every season with clever new ideas for serveware and decorative minis. This spring, watch for a Vertical Napkin Holder, Cracker Tray, Egg Platter, and two new Walnut pieces. New minis: seashell, coffee cup, flamingo, blue dragonfly, artichoke & egg basket.
