<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I LOVE wallpaper. Always have, always will. One day I will do a post on some of the amazing papers I have come across (they have come so far in recent years), but today <a href="http://www.blackcrowstudios.com/index2.php#/home/" target="_blank">Black Crow Studios</a> deserves the spotlight. I may be slightly obsessed, but with good reason I think. I'm a big believer in wallpaper being a statement piece, even if it's just in the texture; but I am literally searching for a house with walls that will do this paper justice. I want to wake up to this much fun and color every day! And as <a href="http://www.blackcrowstudios.com/index2.php#/rtext_5/2/" target="_blank">Tracy</a> says on her site...some people will get it and some won't...and I say boo to those of you who don't :) Just kidding...</span></div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">So, apparently black and white are the new IT colors for spring, and as much as I LOVE "color-color"; I love black and white just as much. There is something so clean and chic about it, it's classic, transitional and always looks pulled together (as did <a href="http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/02/10/beyonce-s-jumpsuit-at-the-grammys-designed-by-osman-yousefzada.html" target="_blank">Beyonce</a> last night at the Grammys).

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">2013 is off to a fabulous start with several exciting projects underway! The past couple of weeks have been jam packed, and I am off this weekend to New York for the <a href="http://www.nyigf.com/" target="_blank">New York International Gift Fair</a> and the <a href="http://www.winterantiquesshow.com/" target="_blank">Winter Antiques Show</a>! I am excited to share pictures with you and take you along for the ride, so make sure to follow me on <a href="http://instagram.com/gingerbrewton/" target="_blank">instagram</a>, <a href="https://twitter.com/GingerBrewton" target="_blank">twitter</a> or <a href="http://www.facebook.com/ginger.brewton?ref=tn_tnmn" target="_blank">facebook</a> for lots of eye candy.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">One of my favorite family traditions is the giving of ornaments every year. My grandmother started giving my sister and I ornaments each year at Christmas, starting with the year we were born. When she passed away, my mother took over the tradition and now gives ornaments to my sister and I, as well as to my niece and nephew. Every year, decorating the tree is so meaningful and brings back many wonderful memories<span style="font-size: small;">,</span> seeing all of the ornaments I've collected over the years. I was really looking for something special this year as gifts, when I came across these <a href="http://www.branchhome.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=1165&zenid=llp16tlv7ktvupdid4i4ik80i2#.UL0o1oXqKZQ" target="_blank">unique ornaments</a> from <a href="http://www.branchhome.com/index.php?main_page=index" target="_blank">Branch</a>. Made from solid walnut and hand turned, these are works of art to be passed down from generation to generation.</span></div>

<br /><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays and I'm always inspired by a well designed table setting.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">I know I'm not alone when I say I love the Novagratz family, and I was over the moon with their <a href="http://www.cb2.com/novogratz/" target="_blank">collection</a> for <a href="http://www.cb2.com/" target="_blank">CB2</a>. It's the perfect mix of vintage and modern, and the prices are worth singing about. The <a href="http://www.cb2.com/novogratz/novogratz/stick-around-side-chair/f7704" target="_blank">Stick Around Chair</a> is my favorite; available as a<a href="http://www.cb2.com/novogratz/novogratz/stick-around-side-chair/f7704" target="_blank"> side chair</a> in faux white leather or as an <a href="http://www.cb2.com/novogratz/novogratz/stick-around-side-chair/f7704" target="_blank">armchair</a> in faux grey leather with nailhead trim. Oh, and did I mention the frame is a high gloss lacquer finish? Yum!</span></div>

Hardware is a detail that can make such an enormous impact, even in small quantities. And when you are able to combine this beautiful, unique hardware with giving back to Mother Earth, it's a win-win situation.

First introduced in 1966 by Knoll, Warren Platner steel framed designs are iconic of 60s modernism. Platner used steel wire to sculpt graceful, yet glamorous pieces that are still in high demand today.

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">One of the greatest things about my job is discovering new resources. I love walking into a showroom and being completely blown away and inspired by what I see. <a href="http://www.reclaimeddesignworks.com/" target="_blank">Reclaimed DesignWorks</a> is one of those companies. Once I stepped inside their showroom I was literally in awe of the beautiful woods that surrounded me (not to mention the enormous saw hanging above my head). <a href="http://www.reclaimeddesignworks.com/" target="_blank">RDW</a> offers true one-of-a-kind </span><a href="http://www.reclaimeddesignworks.com/wood-products/" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" target="_blank">reclaimed materials</a><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;"> - (<a href="http://www.reclaimeddesignworks.com/products/floors/" target="_blank">flooring</a>, <a href="http://www.reclaimeddesignworks.com/products/beams/" target="_blank">beams</a>, <a href="http://www.reclaimeddesignworks.com/products/boards/" target="_blank">boards</a> and <a href="http://www.reclaimeddesignworks.com/products/mantels/" target="_blank">mantels</a> to name a few), in a variety of applications, and simplifies the process for you. You'll discover what you want, and they can ship it where you want. It's that easy and that unique.</span></div>

<span class="product_description">My latest obsession is finding a media cabinet that is not only functional but beautiful...believe me it's harder than you think! This cabinet from <a href="https://www.studioa-home.com/" target="_blank">Studio A</a> is a win-win having both looks and plenty of storage space (drawers AND cabinets)! The exterior is covered in a natural linen (GORG) and the interior is entirely oak-lined. It's also available as shown with silver hardware, or in a limed-oak exterior with silver hardware. Worried about dirt and spills? No need because it's sealed with a clear matte topcoat (genius). Who says you can't have beauty and brains...</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">Inspiration is always a hot topic and there are endless sources that spark my creativity, but film is one of the most fascinating. For me, it provides the opportunity to escape and experience another time, another world, another life. It's been a while since I've posted a "Book of the Month", but this is an all time favorite I love revisiting. </span><br />

<a href="http://designsonfilm.com/Designs_on_Film/Welcome.html" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" target="_blank">"Designs On Film: A Century of Hollywood Art Direction"</a><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">, is a stunning and insightful book by journalist and interior designer </span><a href="http://www.cathywhitlock.com/cathywhitlock/Home.html" style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;" target="_blank">Cathy Whitlock</a><span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">; which showcases the history of art direction and the most notable set designs in film history. These rare photographs are accompanied by the process of production designers - imagining, creating, building and decorating sets ranging from <a href="http://designsonfilm.com/Designs_on_Film/Purchase_the_Book.html" target="_blank"><i>The Graduate</i></a> to <a href="http://designsonfilm.com/Designs_on_Film/Purchase_the_Book.html" target="_blank"><i>Something's Gotta Give</i></a>.

<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: x-large;"><span style="font-size: small;">Last year at <a href="http://www.scottantiquemarket.com/" target="_blank">Scott's Antique Market</a>, I came across some beautiful tortoise shells that I had to have. I don't know what it is that I love about them so much, but they are beautiful accents pieces for any decor.</span></span><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: small;"> I ended up purchasing seven of them and hung them on the wall above my bed. Although mine are of average size compared to some of the ones below, I love the idea of a large shell to hang in the center. <a href="http://1stdibs.com/" target="_blank">1stdibs</a> has an excellent assortment in several variations, which gives you the option to hang, display on a chest or a stack of books.</span><i><span style="font-family: Georgia,"Times New Roman",serif; font-size: x-large;"><br /></span></i><br />

<span style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif;">In a guest room, I don't feel that you necessarily have to have storage space in the bedside tables, unless you really need it. (In a master, I think it is essential in order for things to look clean and uncluttered). What I love about this piece (besides it's perfect dimensions), is that even thought there is no hidden storage, there are still shelves to display pretty little items.</span></div>

Friday, the design world lost one of the most brilliant and creative minds of all time, who I had the honor of meeting when I attended the New York School of Interior Design. Mr. Hadley's designs have been considered genius, appealing to a broad range of both modern and traditional tastes. His legacy will continue to live on indefinitely.</span></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br />
