This little bird looked so perfect in my parents barn in Massachusetts, I just had to snap a picture of it!

I promise this is not just an excuse to post a photo of my adorable little niece! We just got these new baby sheepskins in the store. Caroline adores it and so will the baby in your life! The baby sheepskin is all natural and fully washable. The natural wool keeps baby warm and cosy in cold weather and in warm weather, wool absorbs moisture, which is then released into the air keeping baby dry and comfortable. It also makes a fabulous baby gift! $87

We’re crazy about these new indoor/outdoor mats from Sweden. They’re woven from 50% recycled plastic and polyester, are resistant to rain and mold, and–here comes the best part–the smaller sized mats can be washed in the machine! We think they’re perfect for beach houses, kitchens, porches, mud rooms, gyms.

I just got back from 2 weeks in Asia. I meant to blog while i was away but I was too busy enjoying myself and soaking everything up! Matthew and I went to Singapore to meet my brand new nephew, then to Bangkok and Laos. We fell completely in love with Laos and came home feeling so inspired by everything we saw and experienced. Now we are back and I am feeling totally rejuvenated and excited for spring at the store! Isn’t travel the best? Here are some photos from our trip:

If you find yourself in Luang Prabang, check out my friend Tara’s museum dedicated to the ethnic cultures of Laos, http://www.taeclaos.org/. And if you are looking for a very special place to stay in LP, www.residencephouvao.com is amazing.
