Pop Quiz

HomeGoods Score

This is a pop quiz. Do you like the gilded palm lamps I scored yesterday at HomeGoods? If you answered no, please unsubscribe from Chinoiserie Chic. LOL

Just kidding - we welcome people of all decorating faiths here. I dropped the pups off for their spa day yesterday and it is on the same road as my fave HG. So guess where I headed? I spotted these and almost fainted. As soon as they were in my cart, the lighting department manager came over and told me he had put them out literally five minutes before. He told me they have a line at the door every morning.

I am going to hide the cords with those little Command clips, but couldn't wait to show you.

Here they are lit.


Lots of questions on my vessel sinks. They are so inexpensive you will not believe it. And free shipping. And a really nice company to work with. And excellent quality.

Here you go. I have used them in two homes and love them. With the current 15% off sale and free shipping the cost is $185.00. A serious steal. Someone asked about height - the height will be perfect - you do not need to lower your countertop - most vanities are too low and you have to bend over. Just make sure the faucet is tall. I chose a quartz in white with a very subtle gray marble veining so as to not compete with the sinks. The quartz countertop was a remnant as I mentioned, so this project was so inexpensive and I simply love it. My master suite is such a retreat - you enter it through eight foot tall double paneled doors - very dramatic!

Today is garden day at Casa Chinoiserie Chic - pruning palms, garden cleanup, and selecting mulch. I am really picky with mulch. If there is time, I plan to go to a couple garden centers as well to start getting ideas. I am thrilled that I am ahead of schedule on the house and can start on the garden. The timing is great right now with all the snowbirds away.

Scale

Mary McDonald - Veranda

One of my favorite things about Mary McDonald's style is her sense of scale. In this beautiful dining room,  traditional furniture, rug, chandelier, and art are made much more modern and dynamic by the use of very oversized ginger jars on the skirted table, massive blue and white Chinese porcelain lamps and blue and white Chinese planter on the sideboard,  and a huge potted palm.

Lamps have become real focal points in rooms. These dramatic, oversized Blanc de Chine lamps are great examples.

The Chinoiserie Entry

Jill Goldberg - New England Home
 If you love color and Chinoiserie, this entry is one for you. The walls are covered in a blue Phillip Jeffries grasscloth. The stair runner is leopard. A Bernhardt leather bench is upholstered in spring leaf green. An Osborne & Little fabric covers the colorful bolster. A sea urchin sculpture is a fanciful note. Chinoiserie elements include a beautiful pagoda mirror with bells and a black and white dragon lamp whose lampshade echoes the green of the bench.

Double Gourd Lamp High/Low


I love this Bunny Williams brushstroke double gourd lamp above, but it retails for $950.00! The one below reminds me of it, and it is sold in pairs for $184.95. It is available right now on Joss & Main. It also comes in black, red, gray, and blue - this is the navy. A pair would be wonderful on a console table or on bedside tables.
