    "Enchanting," "exclusive" and "one-of-a-kind" are words that describe legendary design icon Tony Duquette, his lavish LA estate "Dawnridge," and Baker Furniture's luxury line by Hutton Wilkinson. Join Wilkinson, (who worked with Duquette for 30 years as an apprentice, assistant and then business partner) as he gives us a glimpse inside a magical home where inspiration and beauty reside. "The Select Works of Tony Duquette" line features recreations of his furniture, lighting and accessories and is available at Baker Furniture locations worldwide. Wilkinson also creates bold, colorful jewelry pieces that follow the Duquette design aesthetic-- and as he says, "If it's not fabulous, it's meaningless."

    Furniture maker mavens Cliff and Leigh Spencer design with our future in mind and sustainability is the key. The husband and wife duo, based in scenic seaside Marina Del Rey, California, live and work by a single philosophy: live simply. But that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice quality or style. By bringing an eco-aware flair to their custom cabinetry and furniture pieces, the natural beauty of the wood takes center stage. Working with traditional (walnut, cherry, maple) and non-traditional (mesquite, eucalyptus, sycamore) woods, they create luxury items out of something you use every day.

    Mirror, Mirror, On The Wall...

    Let's be honest -- we all kind of love checking ourselves out. Whether we're sneaking a peek in the reflection of a street-side window, or openly (well, privately, really) gussying up to dance and sing in front of an imagined-audience-of-many, mirrors play an important part in our lives. Hell, I'm not sure many of us could go a day without seeing a mirror at some point. The best mirrors, however, are ones that are beautiful on their own, without the help of our lovely selves standing in front of them. And the best of mirror-makers are those that consider themselves artists, creating wonderful masterpieces that sometimes seem better fit in a gallery than, say, above your bathroom sink. Turn your home into a gallery that bills your face as the main attraction with the interesting accents that these artists have designed to make these mirrors of our pretty faces. Check out this slideshow to take a peek at some of the coolest mirrors out there!

    Maybe it was that furniture design class I took in college, or maybe it was my mom allowing me to re-layout my room every few months, but I love me some small home updates. Whether it's a simple rearrangement or a bold change, nothing can freshen your outlook faster. I challenged myself to gather a few snazzy, well-designed, conversation pieces of furniture to brighten up a room, all under $450. Imagine giving your bedroom a sense of Old Hollywood glamour simply by placing Target's Button-Tufted Chaise Settee at an angle. Or spice up your studio with Target's Small Room Divider in Espresso. It's a great way to organize some of your media, but also give your room a little more flair. Check out my slideshow for other great room-spicing options!
