Frank is the man. He designed not only buildings and residences but also their furniture, fabrics, fixtures-and even landscaping-to create a unified whole. I want these glasses from Moma (designed after the Coonley playhouse windows) for a decorative element in my new digs.
My dear friend Eileen has finally started selling her baubles on etsy. Check her store out here. Below are some of her amazing pieces. How am I going to choose which one to buy?!?! They are incredibly swoonworthy, dontcha think?
I was way into clocks before Flava Flav made it cool again. One of my prized possessions is a cuckoo clock I got from Urban Outfitters last year. I just love it. These are two that I've had my eye on - but seriously, I can't have a clock in every room of my apartment. It's nerdy. I'm too cool for that.

Okay so obviously with a new place comes a new list of things I want for my apartment. Here are the first things I'll be getting marked off the list:
For the living room -
This rug - if I can find it! Sold out in the NYC store and online in the size I need
Lamp perfection
This poster for my living room - framed.
Something for the TV and a coffee table
For the bedroom -
Bomb ass curtains
Aqua jewelry hook
For the kitchen -
I need a tiny dinette set. Suggestions?
And these for the "cucina" and flower tiles in the kitchen and bathroom!

I wish I could decorate a tiny bathroom in this amazing wallpaper. Lime green paper with all white accents in a bathroom - very posh indeed. But nah no, I've got mauve. Awesome. (Can't wait to post pics - 2 weeks til the move in!)
I can't believe I stumbled upon this amazing coffee table on etsy. It's inspired by the lounge chair that Jens Risom designed for Knoll in the 1940s. I'm obsessed with this. And for $189, you're practically robbing this guy. Somebody buy it since I can't. (Speaking of Danish design - Denmark is apparently the happiest country on earth. Um. It's because of the furniture).
This would look great atop my baby grand piano. Er. I mean my T.V... heh.
Though I am a devoted Marimekko fan, I have rarely craved any of their apparel or bags - until now. There's something fresh and summery about the Horisontti tote. Maybe I should jet off to Capri and bring it to a beach with me. Thoughts?
My favorite artist, Dallas Shaw, now has tea towels up on her etsy shop. Visit her store here.
