Fabulous and Baroque (A Boutique You SHOULD Know About)

I love ornate furniture! It's a big dream of mine to have our wedding in a beautiful castle with all ornate furniture from the Baroque style... I also dream of one day owning a dresser from the period (or a look-a-like) to help ease my eclectic heart...

While browsing the internet (as I often do), I came across the website of Fabulous and Baroque, and found the most amazing pieces. There's glamour, shine, gold, silver, rustic, ornate... a little bit of everything. They specialize in period furniture, "bringing them back to life into modern design thanks to the skillful ability of the most expert craftsmen, for interiors or unrivaled glamor".

Here's some of my fav...

I know, right? I love them all! There's so many great, glamorous pieces; I think this site was put online just for me! Had to be, right? I wanted to know a bit more about them so I read their "About" section. They provide one-of-a-kind period furniture that (for what you get) is well priced. Many items will definitely be out of budget, but that side table above is under $400. Besides furniture, they also sell rugs, mirrors, and lighting. So, go and take a look and let me know what you think!!

Design Trend 2013: BRASS

Brass has been foretasted as a big design trend for 2013. I love the metal finishes and brass happens to be one of my favorite!

What is brass? Brass is a mixture of zinc and copper (making it an alloy), and because the amounts of zinc and copper varies, brass comes in a bunch of different shades (with different properties). Brass is strong and corrosion-resistant, so it makes a great item that needs to last a long time. Brass can be inexpensive, too!

Brass has been around for a LONG time and was really big in the 70s! My family still owns brass furniture from back then. I recently picked up a really cute brass headboard for my client from a garage sale. Brass looks great in all kinds of room, whether it's accessories, furniture, or even a wall finish. It gives even the newest items vintage appeal. I love to see brass used in the most glamorous and colorful rooms!

Here's some stylish rooms that incorporate brass. I've even included a product board of some of my favorite furniture and accessories made with brass...
