This Just In (017)

This Just In: Green Velvet Loveseat.

Perfect Fit: I really love this guy for a formal living room. He is just the right amount of funk to add to a space with some traditional/neutral pieces to give you that wow-moment. Don't be scared off by the green...you can either find some beautiful new upholstery, or tone it down with some simple throw pillows if it's too much for you!

How Much: $325. Only at Clutter!! Come see us or call (912.354.7556) for details!

Get Right For The Weekend Playlist #12.

Kicking off 2014 with some mellow, laid back jams. Here's what we're listening to this weekend:

365 Days of Fab Furniture: Day Three

West Elm's Steel-Armed Bend Chair is a perfect little occasional chair for any room. Shown in Persimmon, this chair gives a (sometimes much needed) pop to a neutral heavy space. West Elm, you had me had Steel-Armed...#love.

The Steel-Armed Bend Chair is available at West Elm for $799.

Color Coded: White

Image from You're Welcome Savannah's Open House (011) of Lynn and Jimmy's bedroom.  

From Miami-beach chic, to French Country, to somewhere in between...white is a powerful color choice. White can be a difficult color choice to tackle in your home, though...but when it works...you can pull off an extremely dramatic moment in any space. 

White is one of those exceptions that you can over-do it in a space and still have it work. If you're going white on white on white (as is oh-so on trend), you'll see that throwing in even a small pop of color on top will make a huge statement.

White is especially tough with children and pets so if you are in that (happy) predicament, work in white in signature pieces that are also easily cleaned (vinyl, leather, slipcovers...etc.). 

Here are just some pieces in white that we LOVE that would make a great statement in your home.

365 Days of Fab Furniture: Day Two

The holidays are over (unfortunately), but that means that there is plenty of time to prepare for next year's festivities. Start your purchases with the Cheval Bar Cart by Jonathan Adler. This beautiful combo of brass and glass is the perfect addition to the sophisticated dining room and your Chambord will look amazing atop it. Or go whole hog and buy two...they would make an awesome pair of side tables or nightstands.

The Cheval Bar Cart is available for $1950 from Jonathan Adler. 

Dream Home of the Week: 27 East 56th Street, Savannah, GA

Our premiere Dream Home of the Week is this lovely two-story on East 56th listed on Trulia at $499,000. Great curb appeal and that pool is a very pleasant surprise. Really love the floor plan.

There are these GREAT Design Within Reach outdoor sofas that would look perfect around that pool!

What do y'all think?!

365 Days of Fab Furniture: Day One

The "Orleans" Mirrored Chest for Horchow's John-Richard Collection is the perfect addition to any bedroom. Function meets sophistication meets feng shui...mirrors are great in a small room to make it feel bigger and in a big space to tie all things together. 

This beauty is available from Horchow for $5179.
