Wood Dressers

The search is on for the perfect wood dresser for a client's bedroom. She needs a darker piece to break up the white walls and I think any one of these pieces would do the trick.
Gorgeous, n'est-ce pas?

Fabric & Handle Tote Bag Giveaway!

Beach season is upon us and I'm certain this week's giveaway is just the ticket. Fabric & Handle's tote bags combine simplicity and style in a way that any design darling would appreciate.
Gingham never looked so good. Sur la plage or en route to work, Fabric & Handle totes are perfect for carrying your everyday necessities.
Call me boring, but I will forever love tan and bright white. Oh, and see those chic button straps? They're completely adjustable. Now that's a design I can get behind!
Want one to call your own? Good — because two of you will be winners! Fabric & Handle is kindly giving away two tote bags from their vast selection and the winners will be chosen randomly this Friday. All you have to do is become a Design Darling follower, check out their site, and leave a comment letting me know which tote you'd choose. Look at that... simple and stylish.

Cocoa & Hearts

As you may recall, one of the goals on my 101 in 1001 list is to invest in my first piece of original art. You can imagine my delight when Jen of Made By Girl announced the opening of her art site, Cocoa & Hearts. Her paintings are colorful, modern, and simple in the best way possible. While her larger pieces are a fantastic resource for large-scale decorating projects, I'm most drawn to her 10" x 8" canvases, which retail for $95.
