SCENTS AND FEEL


Seeing the new collection from
aways makes me happy.  They added
a new weave called wavy stripe in a soft
honeycomb weave.  It is the same
100% natural cotton fibre that we have
grown to love.  The more you wash it
the softer it becomes.

Beautiful canvas bag to match, great
for the beach or as a trendy accessory
with any casual outfit.

The color pallet is breath taking.
There is a mix of cotton canvas styles, that
can be used as a throw, shawl, tablecloth,
and the honeycomb foutas that are great for
drying after a shower or swim. Mixing textures
as well as patterns and colors, create
a unique look at home.






All of the new hot colors have been
represented thoughout the collection


Black, white, grey and nuetrals continue
to be big sellers

taupe is a new introduction and it
will become a staple

I have included some wonderful display
ideas collected from SCENTS AND FEEL
customers all over the United States.
I love the creativity that the line inspires.












Baby has not been forgotten.  A darling
gift set of four pieces are now available
in 3 colors.  Fun and sophisticated for
the chic baby of today.




Bath day can also be a little more
special with the help of a soft
absorbent fouta.  Zoe loves it.

PINE CONE HILL

There is no question about it Annie Selke,
the visionary behind PINE CONE HILL
has a way with color and she mixes
it with great design.

Bright, happy peppy prints, patterns and solids

Everything that is needed to make a
beautiful bed is provided.  Sheets,
bed skirts duvets, coverlets, shams
and decorative pillows





What you wear to bed has not been
forgotten

If bright is not your choice there are
so many other options to choice from.
The Bella Blue shown with the diamond
cotton coverlet


The new Ume Platinum combined with
the new Linen Mesh is a great look. 

I love the Cape Calm collection.  I think
the name is perfect. 

The stripe mixes well with the Batik
Blossom that makes you yearn for summer.

The striped linen sheets combined with
the checkerboard duvet add a tailored look.

The linen lounge wear is as comfortable
indoors and out.  Can see it with a
pair of sandals sitting around the pool.

The new Landon reverses to a grey check


If the bright sleep wear isn't for you
there are many other choices. 


Coverlets are a good way to add color
to your bedding as well as being very
functional.

The new Dunes throw is cozy as well
as decorative.

This is just a small sampling of what
is available in this life style line.
Annie has developed a thoroughly modern
approach that gives equal weight to both
the principles of home decorating and
your personal comfort and happiness.
You can read more about this in her
book Fresh American Spaces.
