It's Showtime!

It's been a fun couple of weeks and we've been on the hunt for the newest, most novel pieces just for you! Last week we were at the L.A. gift show checking out the latest in designs and exploring the current trends. We snapped a few of our favorites and as you can tell most everything is natural, recycled, and earth friendly - definately the theme for the season.
Tis' the season... in the buying world.
It's beginning to look alot like Christmas!

Someone's a little excited for Santa to come! From the looks of things - I think she's on the naughty list. Em - He knows if you've been bad or good, so you might as well drop the sweet act.
Wait!!! - we've still got summer to enjoy...

Two's Company table set with oversized servers and porcelain sea creatures on leaf and coral chargers - very refreshing!

Tamara our Jamie Young rep says, 'no.. no.. no.. - dont take a picture of me!'... sorry sinorita bonita gotcha!

I can't get enough of the deer heads personally - so fun! Imagine a cluster of all shapes and sizes over a fireplace. Love it.

Jamie Young Natural Collection

Jamie Young Hand blown bubble base lamps - cork, hemp, and raw silk shades

Jamie Young vintage shell bottles

Vintage inspired aprons - we love them! One of our top sellers! So fun to shop the new designs and fabrics for the season.

As it gets later and later in the day - things tend to get funnier and funnier.

Our team for the day - Emily... Laguna Beach Manager, Jaymi... Buyer, Kara... Ladera Ranch Design Manager, Laurie... owner (behind the lense)
