Workspaces, Made in the USA and Shopping the World
The other day I came across this photo of designer Kristin Albers office space and was captivated. I usually lean towards bold, fun colors in my work space but I really felt a connection with the monotone color palette. The space feels cozy and totally relaxing with a simple sophistication to it.
In doing a little research about this office space I discovered that all the binders, which I originally thought had been wrapped in Kraft paper, were actually products made by a company right here in the USA.
Guided Products makes simple, durable, reusable and beautiful binders, folders, business cards, labels and iPad cases. And the company has a great business philosophy.
When I started looking for information on Kristin Alber I learned that she is pretty amazing designer and business woman. In 1999 Kristin and her husband founded the store Domestic Bliss in Mesa, Arizona and have since gone on to establish FOUND Design Co. a second store which sells a curated collection of home finds. Kristin is also the talent behind ReStyleSource.com which is a national guide to local shops and restaurants plus a blog featuring amazing content on interiors, DIY projects, fashion, food, entertaining and parties! You can read about RestyleSource here.
The Domestic Bliss store is one of most beautiful stores I’ve come across in a long time and I haven’t even seen it in person. The store is filled it with an amazing collection of vintage and new items and is expertly merchandised with lifestyle vignettes and creative displays. I could go on and on about this store but I’ll let these photos speak for themselves.
Here are a few images of the store decorated for Fall and Christmas….
Domestic Bliss also offer interior design services and creates beautiful spaces for their clients like these…
Such a great mix of patterns, colors, textures and finishes.
This home decorated in shades of white and cream is just stunning…
Wow, right?? So much goodness under one business umbrella.
We are planning a trip out west next year and I will definitely include Domestic Bliss on my list of places to check out.
For more inspiration you can find Found on Pinterest or you can visit them in person in Mesa.

Fashion Focus: Tassel Necklaces
Happy Hump Day! Is everyone as excited as I am that the weekend is almost here?
I just wanted to drop in today to see if you have picked up on the hot fashion trend of tassel necklaces? Seems that all the celebrities are wearing them and just about every jewelry line and accessory store carries them. What’s not to love about Tassel Necklaces….Effortless, Classic, Stylish, Dynamic and fun!
I’ve been lucky enough to find a few tassel necklaces during my antique shopping trips and they are quickly becoming one of my go-to pieces of jewelry.
If you want to get in on the trend, I’ve rounded up 6 of my favorite and affordable necklaces to make your shopping easy.
I also have a few vintage tassel necklaces available in the ConfettiStyle Designs Etsy Shop!
Do you own a tassel necklace?
DIY Polka Dot Cocktail Napkins
I’m back today with a fun DIY project!
Ever since seeing these cute cocktail napkins at Anthropologie I’ve wanted to buy a set or two or three.
Last week while looking around at Tuesday Morning, I came across a set 12 solid colored cocktail napkins and the DIY bell went off in my head.
To create your polka dot cocktail napkins simply dip the end of the eraser in your fabric paint and place random dots on your napkins. Easy peasy with fabulous results!
{fabric can be washed after 72 hours}
Bring on the summer cocktails!
There’s a New Shop In Town
Just when I thought shopping for antiques and vintage items couldn’t get any better here in Atlanta, a new store opens offering up even more treasures!
The Chamblee Antiques and Interiors store opened a few weeks ago and has booth after booth of vintage and antique treasures. Because the multi-dealer shop has booths owned by a different proprietors the mix of products ranges from classic antiques to mid-century modern, industrial, Asian and rustic vintage.
Here’s a look at some of the things that caught my eye on a recent visit….
My friends Lance and David from Parker Kennedy Living had these lovely Asian figurines in their booth. They were just captivating.
I loved this little bamboo bench. Super cute as a little accent in a guest bedroom.
The wood crate full of vintage bottles was cool but at $185 it stayed in the store.
Loved this scale and thought about it for a brief second but decided to wait.
The brass bowl was oversized and really beautiful.
A pretty little silver cracker dish (would also be great to hold pens and pencils on a desk).
These ceramic urns were really stunning. They measured about 16″ tall.
This vintage terrarium expensive but really nice. I can just imagine a cluster of succulents nestled inside.
The Asian wall plaques was great. I’d paint it an antique ivory color it would be a bit more versatile to decorate with.
Lovely bright orange cabinet.
Lots of ironstone!
A pretty hand-painted chest of drawers. I loved how tall the piece was.
A fun vintage sewing tin.
Isn’t it amazing that you can turn just about anything into a lamp these days?
This cowhide bench was nice.
I saw this vintage rack and immediately thought about how great spools of ribbons would look stored on it.
I have a thing for benches and bamboo!
Chamblee Antiques and Interiors is located in the heart of Chamblee’s Historic Antiques Row and is over 11,000 sq. feet. There are lots of antique stores and thrift shops in the area so you can easily spend a day treasure hunting.

Fashion Focus: Summer Tunics
Do you have a go-to summer outfit?
One of my favorite clothing pieces during the hot summer months is a Summer Tunic. Lightweight, cotton, comfortable and classic are just a few words that I’d used to describe this staple in my closet.
What I love most about summer tunics is how versatile they are. You can wear them with shorts, pants, a long skirt or alone as a beach cover-up or easy summer dress (just make sure the length is right for a dress).
Lilly Pulitzer, known for her bright colorful prints and patterns established the summer tunic as one of her trademark designs and as an icon of summer beach resorts. While I’d love to be wearing a tunic while sitting poolside with a cocktail in Palm Springs, tunics work just fine for my lifestyle here in Atlanta.
This hot pink style above is pretty classic but I love how the Chartreuse embroidery around the color gives it some added style. Most of the summer tunics you find in stores today have 3/4 length sleeves and an open collar. Just perfect for showing off some summer jewelry.
I also love the embellished neckline and cuffs of this solid black tunic. Great with white pants or shorts.
Sleeveless tunics are perfect for a day a summer shopping or strolling around town.
Here’s are few more looks to consider…
The white collar trim really makes this pattern pop.
C. Wonder (one of my favorite stores) has a few fun summer tunic styles this year, some knit and some woven cotton. You can check out their selection here!
So now that summer is here, what are you waiting for? Pick-up a summer tunic this weekend and head to the pool.
