Smarter Cubes

Now, this might be a task for someone handy. We love the idea of these cubist shelves, simply lined with wood that you could find at the local Home Depot. The wonderfully basic design serves as the perfect enclosure for your most colorful and decorative of books. Though this version has been built into the home, it looks like the type of thing you could recreate without having to remodel your whole house — perfect for a transient, space-starved place like NYC.

I Spy: Sleigh Bed

The arched wooden frame of a sleigh bed was something a few of us over at The Inside Source were very familiar with growing up. So when we started digging around eBay on the hunt for one, we were surprised to find that sleigh beds are actually rare! What to do in instances such as these? Set up your eBay Feed, which will automatically add your new query to your other coveted items whenever they are put up for sale. Patience is a virtue, friends!

Spots of Sunshine

With the charcoal walls and black light fixtures, this room relies on its crisp white duvet and yellow accessories to brighten up the space (and a few well-placed pumps, of course). The blanket, in particular, brings everything into focus, jelling the room into one cohesive space. Inspired, we did a quick search on eBay and found this gorgeous, canary yellow cashmere blanket by Ralph Lauren Home ($275). And if you’re looking for pillows with strong graphics, we found these in yellow and white.

Ace Blankets

By Jauretsi

Collecting Pendelton blankets can become quite an addiction if you follow the company’s incredible designs over the years. The products are also durable, and maintain for years. One of my favorites is the Pendelton blankets found at the national hotel chain, Ace Hotel, designed by artist Kenzo Minami. The blankets, woven from pure virgin wool on Jacquard looms at Pendelton’s Oregon century-old mill, are now available for $170 on the Ace Shop online. If you’re an avid keeper of these blankets, check out eBay for incredible Pendelton vintage collector items.

Tile Up The Bedroom

By Jauretsi

Sometimes, it takes one gutsy decision to alter the entire vibe of a bedroom. Consider purchasing a healthy amount of tiles and covering up your whole back wall. We know, we know, it sounds risky, but take a look at this masterpiece (pictured above)…. with matching bedside lamps. Check out a few moroccan or mediterranean tiles to get you started.
