Design Within Reach: Cortina Floor Lamp by Pablo Pardo
A long, lean column of light that emits a subtle glow, this floor lamp provides a way to add lighting without the bulk, weight or color imposed by many floor lamps of similar size. Equipped with a full-range dimmer, the lamp can be adjusted to suit your needs and taste . . . it's good-looking AND polite.

These delicate bits of flotsam and jetsam remind you to take a break from your hectic schedule and let yourself dream a little dream. Canadian artisan Roisin (an Irish name meaning "Little Rose") Cadieux harvests bits of twigs, flowers and leaves and turns them into organic poetry. She uses stainless steel and/or copper wire to join the natural elements, balancing the man-made with the macrobiotic. Place it above your bed or next to your desk, then take a deep breath and let your mind wander.

I would live a row of these down my dark hallway - to fill with brightly colored flowers, maybe freesia because they smell so darn good too.

Babylon's got nothing on this clever idea. This would be perfect for my herb garden (which I kill and have to completely replant every time I ever attempt to have an herb garden), to keep it safe from snails and other ground based plant eaters. Plus it could help block a less than stellar view. Too bad I moved upstairs and no longer have an overhang area from which to suspend this.

Kids are generally as aware, if not more aware, of their surroundings as adults. So it is perplexing that it has taken so long for good kids' art to jump out of their books and on to their bedroom walls. "A is for Art" provides fun and trendy artwork in the form of original murals, personalized figures, and illustrations on canvas. Not kid-created art, but definitely kid-worthy.

My apologies: this photo doesn't quite do justice to the gorgeousness of this organic cotton duvet cover and sham set. Having never had the opportunity to experience Washington D.C. in full cherry tree bloom, I am dying for a set of sham and comforter in this blossom-full print. The organic component makes it a must-have as a cure for spring fever and an inspiration for spring cleaning.

If your little girl is about to graduate to a big girl bed, you may want to consider this veritable dreamland for her. The illustration on the headboard seems to have emerged from a favorite fairy tale. Since the iron frame is antiqued with a crackle finish, it will look as though it has already been slept in by several generations of princesses.
