Super Sparkler

Replace a drab, outdated light fixture with something a little more flashy and glamorous. This hanging pendant lamp is the perfect addition to any chic space that needs a little attention.

Shine On Me

Rely on this glass starburst mirror for your last check before heading out the door. Handcrafted in antiqued silver, each circular accent offers another chance to shine.

Delectable Elegance

Showcase your delicious cupcake designs with a clear, raised display stand. We love this glass pedestal stand and dome, adding a simple touch of elegance to dining rooms and special occasions.

Sitting Pretty

Make a modern design statement with these clear and colorful ghost chairs. The sleek, invisible look visually opens up small spaces.

Stump Style

This side table combines form and function for an ultra-natural and rustic look. For those seeking individuality, every tree-stump side table is made from fallen elms and no two are alike.

Stylish Hanging

Stop tossing your coat on the nearest chair, and employ this whimsical dragonfly wall hook to hold your favorite scarves, coats and hats.

A Touch of Bamboo

Bring a stylish and green touch to your kitchen with this bamboo utensil holder that will proudly hold your often-used cutlery.

Just Add Color

Preventing (or cleaning up) spills has never been so fun. Add a splash of color to your next party with this set of 12 multi-colored cocktail napkins.

Sitting on the Dock

Even electronics need a trendy place to recharge. We love this reclaimed wood iPod dock made from a used wine barrel for a modern and rustic look.

Hot and Cold

Thanks to the pineapple indoor/outdoor clock and thermometer, telling the time and temperature has never been so chic.

Handy Hamper

Laundry doesn't have to be a daunting task. With a good-looking and practical hamper, laundry might just become your new favorite chore. We love the sturdy, chic style – and usefulness – of this double hamper.
