I've Missed You So...

The prettiest wastebaskets/tissue boxes I've ever seen via Worlds Away at the New York International Gift Fair.

I've been a bad, bad blogger over the past few weeks. Forgive me. On a happier note, I've been getting into so many fun home decor-related things, from sharing some decor tips with the Birchbox blog to attending the NY International Gift Fair yesterday (pic above). I'll be back to posting regularly really soon. Promise, promise, promise.

Perfect Throw Pillow from Thomas Paul

There isn't a better way to give an old sofa a fresh look than with throw pillows. I'm the kind of person who gets bored with decor that stays exactly the same for too long, so this geometric pillow from Thomas Paul (available on Zinc Door) would be perfect. I can't get enough of this shade of orange, too. Don't you love it? And the price is right at $74.
