Happy Friday friends. I hope your Thanksgiving was fabulous! I spent a low-key day with my mom, brother and his girlfriend and it was perfect in every way. We slept in, treated ourselves to dinner out and watched our fill of holiday movies. Now it’s time to enjoy the Christmas season.

I have another Christmas gift guide for you today and this one is near and dear to my heart because it’s chinoiserie themed!

If you or someone you know is a fan of blue & white, pagodas, ginger jars and chinoiserie patterns then you’re in for a treat. Grab a cup of cocoa and have fun shopping a few of my favorite things.

A FEW OF MY FAVORITE THINGS | CHINOISERIE GIFTS

Decorative Chinoiserie Tape * A fun gift for anyone that loves to craft or enjoys DIY projects. I’d use this to embellish plain stationery or notecards, or as a decorative detail on an acrylic tray or glass picture frames.

Set of 3 Blue and White Flower Pots * Blue & White pots like these can be used for so many things. Along with holding plants, they can be used to hold kitchen utensils, office supplies or bathroom vanity accessories. And the price can’t be beat.

Personalized Chinoiserie Notecards * A great girlfriend or teacher gift, and you’ll probably want to get a set for yourself while you’re at it.

Seda France Jardin Du 3-WIck Candle * This candle container is really pretty and the scent is amazing! Stock up on these for hostess gifts or a special gift for co-workers.

Tobacco Leaf Tin Plates * These plates are almost too pretty to eat off of but they would make the perfect gift for anyone that loves to entertain.

Set of 3 Pagoda Pouches * Fill these pouches with cosmetic samples, personal care items or office supplies and you’ve got a great gift for your mom, sister or any woman in your life.

Ginger Jar Dish Towel * I love this tea-towel on its own but would pair it with a cutting board(see #21), or tea-cup (see #9) to make the gift extra special.

Blue Ceramic Food Storage Containers * My friend Marsha brought these storage containers to my attention. They come in two sizes and would be fun as part of a holiday cookie exchange.

Ginger Jar Mug * Pair this cute mug with a coffee gift card or my favorite tea to create an easy gift set.

Personalized Pagoda Bookplates * The perfect (and unique) gift for anyone that’s book obsessed like me. This is just of the many amazing designs that Nancy hand illustrates herself.

Monogram Ginger Jar Notebook * Can you ever have too many cute notebooks? don’t think so. The animal print pattern and personalization on this notebook are just too cute and something everyone can use.

Ginger Jar Champagne Bucket * This Aerin designed bucket has been on my radar for a very long time. Perfect for chilling wine or champagne, and I also think it would make a great flower vase.

Tobacco Leaf Design iPhone Case * Yes please!! The case comes in a variety of phone sizes and is currently 20% off with code: BLKFRIDAYZAZ

Pink and Red Dragon Pajama Set * A cozy set of pajama’s for cold winter nights. The color combo is my all time favorite and I love the whimsical dragon pattern.

Red Blooms Chinoiserie Vase * This beautiful vase would look great as part of a ceramic grouping or as a stand-alone. For the home decor lover on your list.

Blue & White Picture Frames * Such a beautiful way to display a favorite photo. A great gift for new parents or a newlywed couple.

Porcelain Calligraphy Brush and Brush Holder* These pieces are perfect for adding a little style to a work or creative space. Both pieces are on sale, under $7.00 ea. p.s. I’d also use the jar to hold make-up brushes or toothbrushes in the bathroom.

Ceramic Pagoda Cookie Jar * Cookies and Christmas go hand in hand and this cookie jar is such a unique storage vessel. Just fill with cookies and add a big red bow for a great family gift.

Bungalow Rose Floral Garden Stool * Is there someone who loves home decor on your gift list? This pretty garden stool would definitely put a smile on their face.

Ginger Jar Doormat * It’s hard to find a stylish doormat but I think this one checks all the boxes. This would also look great layered over a decorative outdoor rug.

Chinoiserie Monogram Cutting Board * This cutting board is one of my go-to gift items. There are a ton monogram styles and color options to choose from so you can customize it however you like.

Wedgwood Sandwich Tray * I don’t know about you, but I love a pretty tray for entertaining or decorating. This floral pattern is just so pretty.

SIX Favorite Blue & White Lamps {all under $100}

February 15, 2017

I’ve been shopping for budget friendly blue and white lamps for a client and haven’t had in luck in the stores in my area. HomeGoods has some beautiful Ralph Lauren lamps but the $199 price point is not in the budget for my client. Since I couldn’t find any lamp options off the shelf, I did some shopping online.

A few clicks and key words and I found some great lamp options, all under $100.

♦♦♦

BUDGET FRIENDLY BLUE & WHITE TABLE LAMPS

♦♦♦

The Benoit Blue and White Ceramic Table Lamp is a great value ate $49.95 and has a more traditional feel because of the shade of the base and the shade. This lamps would work great in a living room or on bedside tables.

The ginger jar shape of the Blue and White Porcelain Temple Jar Lamp gives it a more traditional Asian feel. Because the floral pattern is more compact I’d pair this with striped or geometric textile patterns in a living room. ($79.95)

This is my favorite lamp and the one my client loved. The Maude Blue and White Ceramic Table Lamp has a more modern vibe because of the acrylic base and tapered drum shade. ($69.95)

Small lamps that can work on a kitchen or vanity counter are hard to find. I love the look of this Blue and White Floral Ceramic Table Lamp which has the Asian symbol for happiness on the front. ($69.99)

If you need a more modern design then the all-over geometric pattern on the Blue and White Geo Table Lamp is it. I also love the chunky wood base. ($90.00)

The Floral Blue and White Mini Tea Jar Porcelain Table Lamp is decidedly more traditional in design and feel. This lamp would look great on a small side table or console table.($79.99)

Happy shopping!

Green and White Decor Inspiration

One of the things I love most about decorating with green and white is that there are so many shades of green to pull from. This vignette is a great example of mixing different tones of one color to create depth and interest.
