Exciting Happenings at Nest

Two things to report from a fabulous Dallas store called Nest:

1) They are giving away a $50 gift card! Details here. If I'm the lucky winner, the Jonathan Adler Richard Nixon Throw is coming home with me!

 

I also love these little cuties

2) They are graciously hosting an event benefiting the North Texas Food Bank called Furnish and Feed. Basically, the more canned food you donate, the better the discount gets...up to 40% off in-stock merchandise! They're also including special orders in the promotion, so I'm thinking now is the perfect time to order the Jonathan Adler custom rug for our den. I've been stewing over it for months and I need to bite the bullet...the rug is going to be gigantic at 11'x13'. I love it when charity and shopping collide :)

The Wonderful World of Jonathan Adler

Although I'm not drawn to JA's famous pottery, I do fancy some of the other offerings on his site:
Woodhouse Bed...so pretty, however, I think I can get a similar look from one of the cheaper beds in my previous post.

Yes, I am aware that it would be insane to spend $78 dollars on a box only intended to house the remote controls. Despite the insanity, I still want it pretty badly (it is a perfect shade of orange), but before buying I'm going to search for an alternative. I hate visible electronics...including remotes!

Sleek side tables...
I wish I had a good place for this..it's actually pretty well priced too at $750.
This lamp could make a boring room lots of fun! Throw a little grosgrain trim on that shade and it's perfection.

I have been lusting over this throw for a while. My only worry is about the way it feels..."100% Baby Alpaca." Hmmm...that phrase triggers my texture issues. It is cheaper than the Hermes blanket that I really want. I'm so darned sensible ;)




The above pillows can be customized, however, you'll notice that there is no orange in the color options. Clearly, a mistake that should be fixed! I suppose that I could make the grey and the light blue work - shout out to Tim Gunn since Project Runway comes back on TONIGHT!!!
