Poppy Cotton Home Accessories
All of us know someone whose taste we envy, and for me that friend is New York designer Melissa Cotton Womack. When she told me she was launching Poppy Cotton, I could hardly wait to see her ideas unfold. True to form, her line of home accessories–fashioned from vintage textiles–is unlike anything else out there. The colorful pillows, lamp shades, and wall hangings really make a room pop. If you have someone on your list who’s so unique that you never know what to get her, get her a gift certificate, and let her pick a little bit of happy for herself.

Pink and Brown Down Throw
A few weeks ago, I go a note from Jay Arnold gushing about these down throws from Target. He called them a “steal” and noted that they’re super soft and warm. They come in several colors, the cover is made of a polyester micro-fiber, and the fill is 75 percent duck down and 25 percent fiber. Also, (and you know I’m a sucker for this), you can throw them in the washing machine.
