My ideal sink: one for him, one for me, and marble as far as the eye can see. So handsome.
I’m back from New York, refreshed and brimming with blog fodder.
One of my favorite finds this go-around was Urban Archaeology, a store specializing in salvage, vintage, antique and reproduced home furnishings, which I visited on the recommendation of food writer Heather Atwood. Heather writes for the Gloucester Daily Times and the lovely local-food-focused EatBoutique. See how these worlds collide? I don’t know how I could ever untangle the webs of food, fashion and decor. The point being, Heather’s good taste obviously roams far beyond the culinary.
See below for some of my favorite pieces, and visit their site for more info. In addition to New York they have showrooms in Chicago and Boston.
