Friday Find: Outdoor Umbrellas by Santa Barbara Designs

Hot summer days often times lead us outside on the patio, pool deck or to the beach. In any case, a large umbrella for relaxing in the shade is a good idea. The beautiful umbrellas created by Santa Barbara Designs caught my eye and are today’s Friday Find.

Friday Find: Removable Wallpaper by Timothy Sue

You first saw it on the ceiling in “Teen Hang Out Room” in this year’s San Francisco Showcase. Removable wallpaper by San Francisco-based Timothy Sue has caught my attention and captured my imagination. Printed on polyester fabric using non-toxic and phthalates free materials, the wallpaper can be easily repositioned and removed {without leaving a sticky residue behind}. And best yet, Timothy Sue offers some of the chicest patterns around.

Friday Find: LuLu DK Child for Schumacher

I’ve been a big fan of artist and textile designer, Lulu deKwiatkowski for some time. Her designs captivate young and old and are colorful, fresh and playful.
Recently she teamed up with Schumacher to launch a gorgeous new line of fabrics for children and I’m over the moon!

Friday Find: Acrylic Furniture by Plexi-Craft

Once popular in the 60s and 70s, clear acrylic furniture has made a huge resurgence over the past decade and I love it. A modern touch without being visually heavy, acrylic pieces work beautifully mixed with traditional, contemporary or transitional styles. One great resource for lucite and acrylic furnishings is Plexi-Craft.
Plexi-Craft is unique among custom acrylic furniture manufacturers, having been located in New York City since its founding in the 1960s. In fact, many of the “mid-century” acrylic pieces you might see at vintage furniture shops were made by Plexi-Craft. Today,Plexi-Craft specializes in custom crafted items based on their clients’ own designs or modifications in current pieces in their impressive portfolio. Here are a few of my favorites in their collection:

acrylic_upholstered_chairs_custom
The elegant, timeless George II Chair is one my list. The tufted or solid cushion softens the overall look and is available in COM {customers own material}, so you can get a custom look and let your creativity run wild – from chintz to faux leopard to lemon vinyl.
lucite_glass_round_coffee_table
With tapered clear acrylic legs and glass insert top, the Serena Cocktail Table is a show stopper! I love it’s beautiful clean lines and proportions. Perfect for a living room, but can also be custom made as a dining table!

tv_lucite_cart_acrylic
Plexi-Craft’s TV Table also caught my eye – such a great alternative to traditional TV stands. I love that it on casters and can be easily moved about. It also has options to add more shelves based on your needs. Love this!

Happy Decorating and Happy Friday!
