These are the metallic versions of the PLUME wallpaper. What’s not to love? I think I’m going to use the copper one in my bedroom. I think the feathers floating to the ground will be very serene and sleep inducing. Plus, our bedroom is very dark, so they’ll reflect a lot of light.

This is my PLUME pattern wallpaper in 2 versions with black backgrounds. I think the black on black in the THORNBIRD  pattern is still my favorite. 

So, here it is, finally, my new line of wallpapers. I’m very curious to hear which pattern you all like best. Let me know! This is THORNBIRD black on black.

Alexander Girard Porcelain Plates - $72/set of 4

at Michele Varian, 27 Howard St, NYC, NY and our website michelevarian.com

You can only just see our “LUV” window here. Jaqui gave up making an “E” for LOVE, so we ended up with “LUV”. Obviously, I’ve really been feeling bright red and blue together, because they’re the basis of one of my new geometric pillow collections too. We just received the Alexander Girard plates this week too and they all look so good together.

We couldn’t resist making the most of Valentine’s Day with our window too. It doesn’t hurt that our lovely new LOVE sculptures look so lovely with the covers of the Design Sponge book (with my apartment in it) and Decorate (with a quote from me).

Thank you @TEDxEast for repeatedly using the photo of your stage that was propped out by mostly things from @MicheleVarian. I’m very proud every time I receive a new email.

Check out this Acacia Wood Over Sized Cutting Board featured from Michele Varian in The New York Times Gift Guide. We also offer it in a rectangular shape and I have both at home. They both have a lot going for them, especially if you like to entertain. Acacia wood has a beautiful color and tight flame patterned grain. It is also very light weight, but hard wood, which grows quickly, making it very sustainable.

Besides being over sized, so that you don’t lose what you’re cutting to the floor, the wood is super light weight, making these boards easy to pick-up when full of food. The long handles give you great leverage for carrying them when they are full of food for serving boards.

They make great Hostess Gifts.

A Hand-Painted Walnut Rocket featured from Michele Varian in The New York Times Gift Guide. I love this minimalist interpretation of a rocket, made locally in Brooklyn. This piece is beautiful added to a Mid-Century Modern collection of objects as well as a contemporary interior. It’s a great gift for the guy (or girl) who has everything, but wants to keep it minimal.
