Katie Lindquist, Katie Lindquist Interiors Known for her delightfully eclectic interiors, designer Katie Lindquist says her favorite products for the home currently include timeless linen hemstitch cocktail napkins, miniature oil paintings and whimsical candlesticks. An antique silver bud vase with a floral arrangement adds instant warmth and elegance. For a splash of color, she suggests serving beverages in Estelle colored glasses. When not in use, simply arrange them on shelves in glass-front cabinets or on the bar to create an eye-catching vignette. Perfect for cooler nights, an Alicia Adams Alpaca throw inspires you to cuddle up near the fireplace with a good book. For more inspiration, visit katie-lindquist.com. Monica Lavin, Lavin Label With thoughtful craftsmanship and heritage design inspired by Southern hospitality traditions, Monica Lavin’s lifestyle brand, Art of the Entry, offers timeless pieces for exteriors and entries. When it comes to refreshing home decor, Lavin recommends venturing beyond the front door. To set the stage for a dramatic entrance, she suggests hanging a series of green hand-painted Portuguese tiles with house numbers and laying a braided jute doormat with handdyed edging in either signature green or wrought iron black. Create further intrigue by considering a solid brass heavyweight vine door knocker and solid brass hand-carved tassel door stopper with lattice and rope detail. Shop the collection at lavinlabel.com.
