Annie Selkie Has Done it Again!

We've just received the new Dash and Albert Rug Catalog, and they've added some really great new colors and textures for their 2012 collection.  One of the new additions is the Rope Collection, which is an Indoor/Outdoor rug, single color (no pattern) with the texture of rope.  It comes in six colors.  They also are running the stripes across in some of the new rugs, instead of the length of the rug.  Great look and concept.

Here are some new colors, and all I can say is WOW!  Just what we need to see for spring.
From traditional to contemporary, this company has something for everyone; bold colors, muted Swedish style, soft colors with today's rooms in mind.  They offer Indoor/Outdoor, hooked, cotton, and wool varieties.  Perfect!

Just Back from Market

Well, Erin and I have just returned from Market in NYC.  We saw so many wonderful new designs, colors, and garden ornaments.  Oh, I can't wait for the weather to change and have spring in the air.  Pantone, the color wheel company, has declared that orange/tangerine is the 2012 color and it was evident while we were there.  There was a lot of deeper color for the upcoming season.  Of course, there was still the neutrals that are so popular now, and that I LOVE.

Our spring orders will be arriving later this month, and I can't wait.  You'll start to see new garden pots, plants, and accessories coming in first.  It seems that we are craving those things right now.
