INSPIRED BY NATURAL THINGS

Lately I've been craving natural elements for our house. This Bill Sofield twig occasional table designed for Baker combines some interesting materials and creates a very earthy and whimsical feel.























And then there is this noble stag head carved in wood. This would look fabulous hanging above the fireplace but I have yet to convince Nate that our home won't look like a hunting lodge. Something about horns is warm, unusual and inspiring; they remind me of the years I spent in Missoula, Montana and the weekends I've spent in Jackson Hole, Wyoming.























I'm still looking for a good resource for resin or ceramic coral {preferably white or pink} but here are a few accessories that add a bit of the organic to any room. Courtesy of Roost, The Curiosity Shop, Pottery Barn and Well Dressed Home.

Fun picks, Tonia. I love the ocean-inspired pieces. They remind me of the bathroom in the house I grew up in. Also, they have stag heads kind of like that at Campo in Salt Lake and they caught my eye, too. Though I don't remember the price.

I have those sea urchin vases in my bathroom. They're even better in person.

Pretty stuff...the Pottery Barn by my house has had some really nice resin coral for about $30 each piece. I haven't looked to see what they are like online, but in person, they are really nice. I want to get a few pieces for my house.
