NYIGF 2013: Watermelon Pink

Last weekend, I attended the NY International Gift Fair, and soaked up a bit of NYC.  Around the corner from our hotel in Chelsea, is one of the Remains Lighting showrooms, which is closed on Saturdays and Sundays.  Tracy and I were drawn to two of the lanterns hanging in the window:  a turquoise Marlowe, and another one with antique rondelle glass.

Through the gate you can spot the turquoise lantern on the left and the one with antique rondelle glass on the right.  At first we thought the gate was sort of annoying, making it difficult to peer in further into the showroom, but it’s amazing where inspiration shows up — as the wavy pattern cast a shadow onto the glass door.

The watermelon pink door frame was so pretty, and stuck in my head as we walked through the Javits Center and Pier 94.  There are lots of fun pops of brights to look forward to this Spring and Summer — turquoises, reds, yellows and oranges.  But I’m digressing a bit to Honeysuckle pink, and have listed some of my favorite things from the NYIGF.

      Hillary, If I wasn’t on the pink train, I also love your Careless Whisper & Back in Black finials. Who doesn’t need a little George Michael & AC/DC to rock-out to in their homes?
