Behind the Baubles: Karen Hsiang

December 10, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

image

Beautiful, sensual curves are a hallmark of Karen Hsiang’s jewelry collection, so it wasn’t too surprising to learn she was a former dancer! Her delicate designs are meant to be worn everyday, but they’re even more breathtaking layered with other pieces from the line—or with pieces from your own jewelry box. Better yet, each item can be customized with the metal and stone choice to suit your style. 

Karen is offering a 30% discount to B&B readers through Christmas with code BKAB. I’m actually pretty eager to add a piece to my own collection and finally settled on the crevice ring (gold-plated, moonstone) after spending the better part of an hour winnowing down my choices! Tag me on Instagram (@bedknobsandbaubles) if you place an order, I’d love to see what you pick out!

Outfitted in Joules

December 9, 2013 by jessica 1 Comment

When Joules sent over a pair of wellies last week, I had no idea I’d get the opportunity to wear them so soon! Aren’t they just the cutest way to brighten up a blustery winter day? I’ll admit that the color sucked me in initially, but the practical features made me truly fall in love with them. The boots have a slim ankle, but still adjust for shapely calves with the buckle at the side. And, while I was skeptical of the website’s claim to “exceptional cold weather resistance,” I was comfortable in the snow with just a pair of tights underneath. (That’s not something I can do with my Hunter pair without a thick pair of hiking socks for extra warmth.) Bottom line: thumbs up. Check out the full range of patterns and colors here.

Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until la Our guest room wasn’t a design priority until late last year when we finally bought a bed, mattress, and a set of sheets. We used some of our own extra bedding (tucking in the generous overhang of our king blankets under the queen-sized mattress) and old bedside lamps from our bedroom: functional, but not quite the charming space I’d envisioned.
 
That started to change when I purchased the Popcorn Grid Coverlet from Schoolhouse — an item I’d been eyeing for years — plus some graphic floral pillows. Then came a bright blue round cushion and the sweetest Teig lamp, both generously gifted by Schoolhouse, and the room finally started to come together. You can shop my picks here: https://liketk.it/5f322

Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hi Growing up in northern Wisconsin, lilacs always hit peak bloom right around my birthday on May 30. My mom would fill a large crystal vase with fresh-cut stems, and their scent would waft through the house. 

Now that I live a few hours south and lilac season wraps up earlier, the blooms actually mark the start of my birthday month.

• Spent quality time with my favorite cat

• Biked for Pacificos, chips and quac, and tacos at @bandit.tacos 

• Loved how the rain collected on the Lady’s Mantle I planted last year

• Dipped my toes (quite literally) into this year’s mesh shoe trend

• Snapped a lot of Lily content

• Drove home with a new lilac in the passenger seat
Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours Finishing our guest room has been a focus of ours this year, and the cute Teig Lamp from Schoolhouse is such a charming addition to the space. It’s named for the German word for “dough,” which is perfect for its soft, petite shape.

I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog I’m challenging myself to get through a backlog of travel photos before we book our next trip. First up, photos of the gothic York Minster. I’m not religious in the slightest but I can’t resist stunning architecture and the opportunity to climb hundreds of cathedral stairs for a city view. This one only had a single rest stop about halfway up the flight of 275 steps for a closeup view of the flying buttresses — and a waiver you had to sign before your ascent to promise you’re healthy enough to make it.
