Joan Hornig Jewelry, Beauty for a Cause

This idea is tremendous, jewelry designer Joan Horning has created a jewelry line where 100% of the profits on each piece go to the purchaser's charity of choice. The Joan B. Hornig Foundation provides support for registered charitable organizations throughout the world. Purchasers are able to direct the donation to a charity of their choice, in their honor. Sales have generated contributions to over 200 different organizations around the world. The designs include gold and silver earrings, bracelets and necklaces. You can also tell the world how you feel with the black lucite bracelet shown above which sells for $245.

The Translucent Lucite Mobile

by Rigel Celeste (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Decor

I am a huge fan of mobiles -- something about them is so peaceful and tranquil, plus they bring unique interest and movement into a room. Mobiles are available in every style, color, and size you can imagine, but one of my new favorites is this Translucent Lucite Mobile by Michele Varian. It consists of aluminum rods holding different sized clear discs and circles hanging on clear cords, and is available in both small (2 1/2' X 4') and large (4' X 5 1/2') sizes. Selling for $625 and $1250, respectively, it's definitely not an impulse purchase -- but then unique accents like this rarely are anyway.

2120, A Store For Palm Beach Modern

by Deidre Woollard (RSS feed) —

Filed under: Decor

Modern design seems to have a natural home in Florida, sunnier climates seem to be a better setting for clean lines and spare style. 2120, a modern design store in West Palm Beach is a haven for lighting and furnishings that are contemporary, witty and highly individual. Their website reveals many design finds including plenty of Philippe Starck, a splash of Eames and the sleek and simple pieces of Jasper Morrison. I am enthralled with this lucite armchair which sells for $3,750.
