Ooh.. 100% Bamboo..

I would have never believed that Bamboo Fiber could be this soft and cozy, until I took one home and put it on.. These new Bathrobes we just got in from Pure Fiber are 100% Bamboo. They feel like a combination of silk and cotton and are super easy to maintain.

At $75.00, these robes make a wonderful, but reasonable, Holiday gift. We have them in Cream, Sage and Grey and will try to keep them in stock through Christmas.

Oh, by the way, Bamboo is an extremley sustainable fiber and using it is good for the environment..

A Special Thanks to Rachel Ashwell and You All....

I want to say a very special thank you to the amazing Rachel Ashwell and all of you for making last month's Shabby Chic Interiors Book Signing Event, such a great success. I was really touched by the turn-out and response from everyone who attended and equally as touched by the graciousness that Rachel showed.

It was really a treat to have her at the store, bringing her life experiences and stories and sharing them with us all. Our round table discussion at the end of the signing was so much fun. She answered everyone's questions and went page by page through her new book.

We will all be watching to see how she will re-invent herself, and know that she will be as successful as before... perhaps more so.

We Love our New Bed... And Bedding of Course.

We just got in this beautiful Canopy Bed from J.R. Conte, Ltd. and everyone is in love with it. This guy is a real old world craftsman, if you could believe there still is such a thing. All of the furniture from Conte is made by hand, right here in Orange County and they will do pretty much any custom finish you want.

My friend Tania Taddeo came in and did up this gorgeous Fall mix of Bella Notte, Matteo and Les Indiennes bedding all together. Tania has a wonderful eye for styling and design. It shows in everything she does.

Thank you Tania, for doing such a wonderful job!

Having a local Bohemian Artist in our backyard has it's advantages... Susan Brown saw the bed in the window and just whipped up this painting. She so prolific with her artwork, especially when she gets inspired. I guess this bed did the job for her..

We'll be redressing beds all through the month and I'll be sure to keep posting new and fresh looks. Or you can just come and see them for yourself in person...
