It may be nearing the end of summer, but that’s no reason to head inside just yet. This weather is perfect for spending relaxing evenings on the porch or hosting a Labor Day shindig out-of-doors.
My favorite things this week are inspired by nature and perfect for some late summer gatherings.
The Portland Collection dinnerware by Thomas Paul is a great way to serve guests inside and out.
Handmade Cheese Plate by Luna Reece. A great serving piece year-round
The Reed organic flannel blanket is perfect for a cooler evening.
Often overlooked as a useful object, Tweet the bird would come in handy for holding down napkins or tablecloths on a windier day.
These beer bottle votives are great on the deck and easy to carry when it’s time to bring the party inside
These weighty tea towels can be used in so many ways – as placemats or napkins, to cover less-than-perfect outdoor seating.
Happy Monday!
So Much On Sale
| August 16, 2010 | Posted by Linsi Brownson under accessories, announcements, redefine home, weekly favorites |
In Lieu of my weekly list of favorites, I’m going to shamelessly promote our first big sale at Redefine Home
I’ve marked down almost everything on the site and I’m really excited to see what kind of response we get. Even as I was changing things throughout the day I got sales, which seems to me like a good sign of things to come. I love sales, and clearly I am not alone 
But wait, there’s more! (I’ve been wanting to do that for awhile…) We’re also giving 15% off my favorite collections by TAG Home, Luna Reece and Relight Candles.
I’m also excited because we have loads of new things coming in, so I’ll be busy getting all the new inventory set up over the next few weeks. So stay tuned, and go check out our sale!
Happy Monday.

Something Old, Something New
| August 2, 2010 | Posted by Linsi Brownson under accessories, Flea Market, found objects, lighting, redefine home, weekly favorites |
I love finding unique, vintage and just plain weird things when I’m traveling or out shopping flea markets, but one thing that I always have to stop and think about is how it can be worked into a more modern decor…naturally. The new to old ratio of 3:1 seems to work well to make a home feel comfortably worn but not overly stuffy and museum-like. This also gives room for buying larger or more, ahem, eye-catching pieces that will stand out amongst the crowd of new or modern.
A great book for some inspiration is one called Flea Market Style, which I covered in a post back in September. Click here to read.
All this inspired me to showcase a mix of old and new items for our Weekly Favorites at Redefine Home. See if you can guess which is which…
This week we’re giving 20% off all Weekly Favorites, using coupon code FOUND20.
Happy Monday!
Spotlight On Tag Home
| July 26, 2010 | Posted by Linsi Brownson under accessories, redefine home, textiles, weekly favorites |
I love pillows, but not as much as designer Kellie Avakian of Tag Home Design. Kellie has a passion for textiles and an eye for luxury, which is why her collection for Redefine Home is so amazing. Her pillows are gorgeous to look at and amazing to touch, not to mention her endlessly creative ways to turn reclaimed and scrap materials into something wonderful. She is one of our favorites in the store and I decided it was time to give her some props.
So this week I’m doing a 20% discount to promote her pillow collection – they’re a bit of splurge but worth their weight in gold (or scrap denim). Each one is handmade in Los Angeles and Kellie has a hand in every step of the process. Here are a few of my favorites – and our customer’s faves too!
People drool over this waxed linen and leather pillow. Can you really blame them? It’s shiny and has a beautiful texture to the linen that I have never seen before. David is even designing a lamp with this linen, he’s obsessed.
Black and White is a classy combo, but the bold pattern on linen is pretty unique. Kellie is all about the texture!
The perfect pillow for an upscale patio (or the yacht, darling). It’s made to be outdoors.
I still consider this the best purchase I’ve made in a while. From scrap denim, this looks awesome on a white slipcovered chair or sofa. It’s totally casual but luxurious at the same time. My fave!
People are going nuts right now with the vintage bus blind signs, and this creative twist is a great way to hop on (pardon the pun) without a big commitment. Kellie has a whole slew of stops, from Manchester to Champs-Elysees.
Visit our Tag Home shop to see the whole collection and use coupon code TAG20 to save 20%, plus free shipping.
Happy Monday!
