A Settee for The Sidelines!




It's been a month since I last blogged! I've been busy... I just found this adorable settee--its new to one of my favorite lines--wish I had it on the soccer sidelines, it would have been a much more comfortable seat. It's only 55.5" wide! Such comfortable and good looking seating and fits in a small space. It's got a complementary chair too.

Here's a lovely new sofa. I'm seeing more and more in white, off white, cream and especially linen. Best news on this one, it's totally customizable! Need it shorter? Longer? One cushion? It's all doable. Even better, this company has its own forest; for every tree harvested, a new one is planted. AND, the forest is in the USA and the manufacturing is done in the USA. I think I'll start searching and posting more sofas...let me know what you think, what you want, what you find!

Addison Interiors recently participated in a sale, and while I was in the space helping set things up I spotted the sign below, posted on a mirror. I totally agree with its message. What are your thoughts?

Sculpture Inside and Out



I visited Chicago last week with a school group, and went on the Architectural walking tour. It was one of the most worthwhile things I've ever done. The giant red steel sculpture outside the Federal Center was reflected in the windows of the building, and inside was a miniature version of the sculpture. It's not talked about on the website or the tour, but I thought it was fabulous...another "celebration of steel and our ability to craft it."

Just found a couple of fabulous new lines yesterday, one upholstry line, one casegoods. Isn't this the cutest end table you've ever seen? If you've seen a better looking one, please let me know! Send me a photo!
