Today's Need Read Greed picks, courtesy of the lovely Mandy Kellogg Rye from Waiting on Martha...
- Need: Lucite Trunk. I have a cozy little sitting area in my master bedroom that's in need of a coffee table and right now I'm having a major lucite moment. I've been mixing lucite pieces all throughout my home to add a more modern and fun spin to what is mostly a classic look. I love this because it will fit numerous places, like when I'm over it being in the master I'm sure it will wind up in my office. The question is, do I put anything in the trunk or leave it empty?
- Read: Kate Spade Things We Love Coffee Table Book. No one does color and fun as well as Kate Spade, so I can't wait to get my hands on her new book, "Things We Love". It will be the perfect addition to my expanding coffee table book collection.
- Greed: Dunes and Duchess Candelabras and Lights. Created by photographer Michael Partenio and stylist and editor Stacy Kunstel—these are major, major show stopping pieces for the home. They come in a multitude of colors and would truly complete any room. I'm not sure what I love more...the candelabras or the lights?
Fabulous choices, Mandy! And you can find some of my latest and greatest finds on Mandy's blog today.

Cool list! I think that the fate of the trunk lies in the hands of the room. Is it already busy? Minimal?
ReplyDeleteDepending on what's happening around it, I think it'd be awesome when filled with blankets. The plaid-er, the better. They would make a nice contrast of the traditional with the modern, and they'd add a ton of texture and color.
Ooh, great insight, Tommy! I'm loving the juxtaposition of the traditional and modern:)
ReplyDeleteI love the lucite trunk! We have a larger one in our home store that we fill with throw blankets. I'd definitely consider filling your trunk with beautiful coffee table books.
