Decorative Trays You'll Love in 2020

August 6, 2020 Kara Brennan
Kara Theresa - Decorative Trays You'll Love in 2020 .jpg

ONE - This decorative tray is crafted in an organic shape from teak wood. Recommended Location: I would display this tray in the middle of your dining table or kitchen island. Use this ORGANIC SHAPED WOODEN TRAY to hold your fresh fruit and vegetables and it will be sure to add a gorgeous, natural touch of texture to your home!

TWO - I was drawn to this RATTAN DECORATIVE TRAY because of the mix of materials; the classic woven cane is covered in clear, acrylic, creating a beautiful blend of classic and modern! Recommended Location: Coffee Table, Nightstand, Dresser

THREE - This decorative tray is available in 3 different rectangular sizes and is ideal for entertaining! THIS BLUE BOTANICAL PRINTED TRAY is dishwasher and food safe! Use this tray to display and serve your next cheese platter! Recommended Location: Kitchen Table or Kitchen Island

FOUR - This CIRCULAR ACRLIC TRAY features cutout handles for easy carrying. Monogramming optional. Recommended Location: Bar

FIVE - This ROUND NATURAL SEAGRASS TRAY brings another texture to your coffee table or ottoman! Stack books on this tray or use this to display your linens at your next cookout. Recommended Location: Coffee table, Ottoman or Dining Table

SIX - This HANDWOVEN NATURAL RATTAN TRAY has a metal frame to give it plenty of structure and durability. The light wash finish will be sure to soften up any space in your home. Recommended Location: coffee table or ottoman.

SEVEN - Everyone needs some marble in their life! This MARBLE TRAY could be used as kitchen countertop storage, display your tabletop serve ware or as an added layer on your vanity table.

How To Style Floating Shelves

July 30, 2020 Kara Brennan
Kara Theresa - How To Style Floating Shelves.jpg

ONE - These thin striped place mats will bring a casual vibe to your table setting. Instead of stacking them in a pile on your shelves, try displaying them in your coffee mugs for some height and beauty! THESE STRIPED PLACEMATS are machine washable and sold as a set of 4.

TWO - Alison Junda is one of my favorite artists in Monmouth County and she has commissioned a number of pieces for me, including this bike painting. To see more of her ARTWORK click here!

THREE - These NAVY MUGS are on sale for ONLY $4! These ceramic mugs add an organic, textural feel to this shelving display.

FOUR - Use these door stoppers as decor on your shelves! These WOVEN ABACA DOORSTOPS will add a nautical touch to your shelves.

FIVE - Every cook needs trivets in the kitchen so why not opt for these fun yet minimal ones that add warmth to your shelf display! The acacia wood of these TRIVETS are arranged in a symmetrical grid that looks great stacked in multiples.

SIX - I’ve always been a fan of these CEREAL BOWLS! They are classic, simplistic and white, yet they have a playful, whimsical feel with the small dot detail on the top edge.

SEVEN - We eat most of our meals in LOW PASTA BOWLS so this is a must for floating shelves in my kitchen. However, if you use dinner plates more often than pasta bowls, display your plates instead!

EIGHT - These FLOATING SHELVES are available in 3 sizes (18”w, 36”w and 48”w) and three finish options (walnut, bright oak and white). Hardware included*

Outdoor Living In July

Kara Theresa - Outdoors in July .jpg

ONE - This acrylic drinkware comes in so many fun colors, perfect for outdoor entertaining. You can choose from the tumbler glasses, double old fashioned glasses or wine glasses, all of which are sold in sets of six! The coral, white and yellow are my favorite colors from this STRIPED ACRYLIC DRINKWARE COLLECTION.

TWO - Here is one of my favorite AMAZON PRIME BEACH COVER UPS that is only $19.99!!!

THREE - This set is made of hand carved, hand dyed teak, with ombre handles. THIS OMBRE CHEESE SET will be perfect for your next outdoor dinner party!

FOUR - I was on the hunt for beach towels a couple weeks ago and this TURKISH TOWEL was one of my favorite finds.

FIVE - I love this set of stacking chairs to have as extra seating when you are entertaining family and friends. Throw out those metal folding chairs and replace them with these weathered wicker CAFE STACKING CHAIRS! These all weathered wicker chairs are available in white (shown above), golden bronze, dove, and white/cobalt (striped pattern).

SIX - If you’re looking for a social distancing date night idea, buy this PICNIC BASKET and have a romantic meal outside. This wicker basket includes 2 x ceramic dinner plates, 2 x ceramic mugs and 2 x cotton napkins , 2 x sets of stainless steel flatware ( forks, knives, spoons), 1 x stainless steel corkscrew , 2 x salt and pepper shakers.

SEVEN - The chicest beach chair of summer 2020, available in 7 beautiful fabric options. This CLASSIC SLING CHAIR is made with a weathered friendly teak frame, that over time, will patina and look even better!

EIGHT - It’s time to add texture and personality to your outdoor living area. THIS PILLOW COVER is made from weather-friendly fabrics that can be used indoors or outdoors.

My Favorite Summer Throw Pillows and Blankets

July 9, 2020 Kara Brennan
Kara Theresa - My Favorite Summer Throw Pillows and Blankets .jpg

ONE - Yes please to the waffle fabric vibe that is so hot this season! Whether it’s a waffle sweatshirt or pillow I am all for this look. This WAFFLE PILLOW comes in two sizes; I suggest going with one 12” x 36” (shown above) placed on the center of a bed OR you can get two of the 24”x 24” and place them side by side. Another option, get two of the 24” x 24” in one color and then place one 12” x 36” in another shade right in front.

TWO - I love the look of this purposefully CRINKLED THROW. Choose from five color options, all of which are amazing shades!

THREE - This DOVE GREY THROW is high on my list this week! This blanket is hand-loomed from 100% baby alpaca and really is the prettiest addition to your living room or bedroom.

FOUR - Introduce some silk into your room with this sophisticated STRIPED PILLOW. Choose from three different sizes: 16” x 26” lumbar, 20” x 20” and 24” x 24”.

FIVE - This textured THROW PILLOW COVER with fringe and a contrasting stripe on two sides adds a fun feeling to your room! This 24” x 24” pillow cover comes in three color options: coastal blue, vintage indigo or ivory.

SIX - Here’s another waffled accessory to add to your living room. This THROW BLANKET is woven from cotton and the neutral black and white combination is perfect for a simple room palette.

SEVEN - I have two of these LINEN PILLOWS in the pewter color, 24” x 24 size, and they are placed beautifully on my bed. Belgian flax linen always seems to give a space a livable yet elegant vibe!

EIGHT - I constantly get asked my suggestions on CHUNKY WOOL THROW blankets and I recently came across this as a great option, especially this time of year! It has that chunky textural feel yet it isn’t too overpowering and heavy for the warm summer months.
