Hot In The Hive: His And Hers Ceramic Toothbrush Holders

image
Even if you and your significant other are one of those couples who hold hands at the dinner table and finish each others sentences, you still need at least a little space to call your own. You share friends, a car, a bed and sometimes even clothes. But one place where sharing comes to a stop is usually the bathroom where, even if you share the shower, you need your own toothbrush, comb, towels and other accessories. His and her towel sets have been around for awhile, but what about everything else? Space is limited these days and things get confused easily. Why not try these His and Her Ceramic Toothbrush Holders! Simple, fun and affordable, they're perfect for any bathroom counter and can totally double as home decor, or as a sweet and quirky Valentine's Day gift!


Price: $10.00 each (His and Hers are sold separately)
Who Found It: idabone was first to add the His and Hers Ceramic Toothbrush Holders to the Hive.

Pillow Talk: Snuggle Up To These 10 Quirky Covers!

image
I love my bed. I have the hardest time dragging myself out of its cozy embrace in the morning and all I think about all day is crawling back under its warm, inviting covers. They say the average human spends about 24 cushy, restful years in bed and if you're anything like me, you're looking at considerably more. 24 plus years is much much longer than most relationships, so why not show your bed how much you love it and how much it means to you? Quirky and unique pillow cases that are soft and comfy as well as pretty and fun to look at are the perfect way switch things up and really make it your own. Click on the slideshow to see some pillowcases that are different than your usual affair and will have you looking for excuses to nap!

10 Cute And Whimsical Rugs For Your Stylish Home

image
Is it just me or the rugs I see in many of the foyers, rooms, and hallways that I encounter are either traditional Persian rugs or plain monotone or color blocked rugs? Where's the fun in that? There's a whole world out there where rugs can be fun and practically pieces of art that you can walk all over. Designers like Jonathan Adler and stores like CB2 have been creating fun rugs in response to all those dull dishrags out there. If your tastes run towards the more conservative spectrum, I really like the super soft Sheepskin Rug. For the inner child in all of us, take a peek at the Hopscotch Rug! Just remember, rocks aren't included in this one. For more whimsical floor coverings, take a look at my slideshow.

Shine On With Kartell's Cindy Table Lamp

image
What do you get when you combine a table lamp with '70s retro appeal with a sheen of shimmery metallic finish? The Cindy Lamp from Kartell. I'm not sure if I love these lamps or am repulsed. I am drawn to their teardrop base shape and fun metallic chrome-like finish radiating an iridescent glow. I could see these paired with a minimalist room on an all black matte night stand that would make these babies pop. What do you think of these extremely shiny lamps? This Cindy lamp by Kartell comes in three colors: Platinum, Bronze and Violet. $273 at Barneys New York.

Mad For Plaid: The Iconic Pattern Takes Over Home Decor!

image
Did you know that plaid is a Scottish word meaning "blanket?" Of course, the term usually refers to the iconic patterned woolen cloth, but it's been making a huge comeback. Whether it's the down and dirty grunge look or classically prim and proper, plaid can fit a variety of styles. Going back to plaid's homey roots, I've gathered some of the best plaid home accessories out there. Anthropologie may be known for their girly dresses and shoes, but I love looking at their hardware section to update the pulls on my dresser drawers. I'm getting more than a few Red Brockhampton Knobs since they're also heavily discounted! For a thoroughly modern take on the tradition plaid blanket, check out the Missoni Home Kuala Throw Blanket. Take a look at my slideshow to see more plaid home picks!

Whether you have a small cubicle, an at home workspace or a big corner office, it's time to start the New Year with a fresh clean desk. It's 2010, a brand new year, so while you're busy revamping your closet and your body, you might as well get yourself organized at work. Sweep off all those old papers and file them away in wire stackable baskets that are the perfect balance of chic and homey. If the business cards you collected at the last conference are gathering dust or you're just plain tired of the Rolodex, try reorganizing your contacts in a cool mini file cabinet that sits on your desk. A sleek metal desk set will complement the mini industrial file cabinet. Add a pop of color with large clothespins to hold up memos or family photos. A retro sticker blackboard adheres to any wall, is perfect for jotting down all those new years resolutions, and is sure to jazz up your cubicle.

Stay On Schedule In 2010 With These Unique Wall Calendars!

image
In case you haven't already snagged a 50% off 2010 "Cute 'n Cuddly Puppies" or "Twilight" calendar (or even if you have -- toss it!), I suggest starting off the new year on a design-savvy note and opting for a wall calendar that's both unique and complementary to your home. After all, with all the electronic and PDA-powered personal calendars out there, regular ol' wall hangers are really just for show nowadays... so you might as well choose one that makes a statement! If you're looking for one that's simple-chic (and can even take you through the years to come!), this perpetual calendar designed by Massimo Vignelli is clean yet still stylish. Or if you're hoping for something a little quirkier, this 2010 Bubble Wrap calendar is a clever way to keep track of the passing days. Browse the slideshow for more unique wall calendars to add some 2010 flavor to your home!

The Must-Have Book For Any Fashion Buff - Louis Vuitton: Art, Fashion and Architecture

image
The latest must-have item for any fashion fan is Louis Vuitton: Art, Fashion and Architecture, a 400 page artistic journey through the collaborations of this iconic luxury house. From designers and architects, to photographers and artists, Louis Vuitton can claim one of the richest and most varied associations within the world of art -- and this book pays testament to them all. David LaChapelle, Annie Leibovitz, Takashi Murakami, Vanessa Beecroft and Richard Prince are just a few who have shined their light upon the living legend and unlike many books of this variety, Louis Vuitton: Art, Fashion and Architecture is not a culmination of advertisements previously tried, tested (and most likely, loved by us all) it is an in depth look at what big brands can do when they invest in talent. Critical essays accompany jaw-dropping artwork, so it's up to you whether you choose to browse or bury yourself amongst its many pages. Produced by legendary publisher Rizzoli, Louis Vuitton: Art, Fashion and Architecture will not disappoint intellectuals or page turners alike. If Santa gave you gift vouchers, now's the time to use them.

Hot In The Hive: Tipsy Toes Ice Cubes

image
The old adage, "a girl can never have enough shoes" is definitely one of my style mantras. I'm pretty sure I have over 20 pairs of shoes in my closet! So why shouldn't I apply that motto to the rest of the house too? I could always use a cold drink, so a few of these frozen red heels from CB2 would go perfectly with any sophisticated beverage. The glam ice cubes are made of foodsafe polyethylene that you can freeze over and over again. So the next time you forget to make ice cubes, just throw in a pair of shoes instead. Your unsuspecting guests will surely get a kick out of finding them in their lemonade or gin & tonic!


Price: $5.95
Who Found It: facadeindreams was the first to add Tipsy Toes Ice Cubes to the Hive.

Get The Party Started With Festive NYE Decor!

image
Christmas and Hanukkah may have come and gone and I hope you're not out returning gifts because it's time to prepare for your New Year's Eve celebration! If you're hosting a shindig at your house to watch the countdown for the ball drop or you're lucky enough to have a patio to see the fireworks, then your home has to match the festivities outside. Of course,you wouldn't want to buy things you can only use once a year so the trick is to pick certain colors or finishes that evoke the feeling of New Year's Eve. I've chosen some classic glass pieces as well as silver which can work all year round. I really like these shiny silver pillows that remind me of Andy Warhol's Silver Clouds Installation. For a glass item, check out the Stelton Set Of Six Glass Coasters to protect all of your wood furniture. Check out my slideshow to see more!
