Black Nickel Cabinet Knobs

Most home decorators know that the quickest way to update a piece of furniture- or, indeed, a room- is to change the cabinet hardware. I’m talking about those knobs and pulls, which are available in so many styles now it’s mind-boggling! This Black Nickel knob from Amerock is sleek and shiny- and may be just the thing to modernize that sidetable you think is hopeless. $1.08 at Amazon »

USB Turntable

We’re still in the early stages of creating our home music studio- and this USB turntable from Sony has just gone on our must-buy list!

Not only will we be able to play records (yes, vinyl records!) on it, but because it’s USB, we’ll be able to transfer from our old records to our computers.

The USB Stereo Turntable PS-LX300USB is $149.99 at SonyStyle.com »

Sink Infatuation

A few days ago, I visited our local hardware store looking for a new handheld shower (the subject of another post!), and stopped dead in my tracks when I saw this, Kohler’s White English Trellis Pedestal Lavatory.

It’s part of Kohler’s “Artist Editions” and would be just perfect in our guest bathroom. Or our master bathroom. This beautiful, beautiful, beautiful piece is $995.04 at Designer Plumbing Outlet »

It’s a Bench! It’s a Chest!

I firmly believe that you can never have enough storage, and now that we’re spending more and more time outdoors (yay, Spring!) I’ve been looking to adding more seating to our patio and by the pool. This storage bench is a winner for me- it’s made of special insect and weather resistant cedar, and features a weatherproof cushion top. Beautiful… and useful!
