It's almost dinner party season ;) There is a crispness in the air and I've seen a few warm hued leaves brushing past me on my morning commute. I will hold on to you, Summer, as long as I can but I do love the notion of our long table filled with friends, warm cosy food, red wine and lots of laughter.

I will be the first to admit that Pottery Barn is really my style. It's a bit too safe for me as a go to shopping spot. But I was in there a few weeks ago looking for some dad-friendly picture frames and while wandering around, I am not embarrassed to admit it - I was impressed - with their rugs. Here are some of my favorites.
Karter kilim rug.
Bosworth printed rug.
Summer braided jute rug.
Arlington persian-style rug.
Bonnie stripe indoor.outdoor rug.
And fine. I like this Harlowe wire and glass indoor/outdoor pendent too.
CB2 is dangerous. It's difficult to go to their website or into one of their stores and not want to walk out with about 20 carts of things. I tried to narrow it down to one item per category...this week..but still I couldn't. I just love their bright patterns, creative color pallets combos and versatile and fun pieces.
Bisect 30" pillow. $34.95 CAD.
Wire side table. $129 CAD.
Acapulco multi lounge chair. $249 CAD.
Artisan green canoe paddle. $399 CAD.
Suitor escargot loveseat. $999 CAD.
Sophia hot pink dining chair. $84.95 CAD.
These cantilever chairs. Great shape, no work needed. The color is a bit more burgundy then brown but still neutral and classic.
I am a sucker for a side table. But it has to be special. With a coat of paint (mint, yellow, hot pink?) this guy will be a small but standout piece.
I'e seen this set on Craigslist for a few weeks now. I just can't pull the trigger. I love the chairs but would want to change out the cushions. Also, I'm not sold on the table. If it wasn't a glass top or of the table base wasn't in that oh-so-gross shade of cherry wood, maybe. What to you think?
This is an odd picture of this green velvet couch. But it's a...GREEN...VELVET...COUCH. The color is striking and the shape is simple. It's a knockout. With the right pillows, rug and side chairs, I don't know why everyone wouldn't want it.
