Another candle craving

I love Niven Morgan candles! Not only because Niven is a friend of mine, but because his collection's delicious scents truly capture an entire room.

My all-time fave is his "Gold" candle (above), but right now I'm crazy for the wintry "Spicy Patchouli" too, which makes my place smell like the holidays.

His collection comes in many shapes and sizes, but I like the $40 candles that come in the sleek black ceramic square because I reuse them for flower displays. Click here to check them out.

That's a wrap!

As many of you probably already know, Martha Stewart's hip home decor magazine Blueprint bit the dust earlier this week.

I am so sad because I really liked the rag. To pay my respects, I wanted to tout these cool black and white wrapping papers designed by the magazine that are available for free by downloading them here.

A fashionable gift

Everyone loves a chic candle.

Now I know $65 isn't cheap for one of the little wax wonders, but Jonathan Adler's "Muse" candle comes in a ceramic pot that makes it totally worth it.

Not to mention that you'll save on gift wrap since all its groovy box needs is a simple bow and note. Check it out at www.jonathadler.com.

Thrifty art

I just bought this abstract limited-edition $20 masterpiece at my favorite art site, http://www.20x200.com/.

I recommend the campy-meets-cute "Birdy" photo card above...

Quick gift idea

Here's a gift for the stylish hostess that has everything: monogrammed soaps and hand towels from Land's End.

The simple yet classy box set is only $24.50 -- yes, that's for all three soaps, 15 towels and personalizing! Check it out now under home furnishings at http://www.landsend.com/.

Horray for this tray!

A stylish tray is a decorator's little black dress: it works for all occasions and never goes out of style.

My new favorite is this faux snakeskin dandy that only costs $30! Visit www.jaysonhomeandgarden.com to dress up your bar or coffee table with it for the holidays.

Love this cheerful medallion doormat from World Market.

It's only $14 and will look great through Valentine's Day.
