Friday's Favorite Product: Ruffled Glass Bowl

One of our most versatile pieces!  Perfectly sized for a fruit salad, cold pasta dish, or an easy centerpiece.  The foot gives her a little bit of height to make her (and your buffet or table) interesting and the ruffled edge makes her beautiful.  She is the perfect gift and is a steal at the sale price of $17.96.  Click HERE to order yours!

Friday's Favorite Product: Berry and Bow Door Bucket

I'm nuts about door buckets!  They can be used indoors or out and I love their versatility and the way they dress up a door.  This Friday's Fave is our Berry and Bow Door Bucket, new this season.  I love its rustic finish!  I have mine hanging on my front door (tutorial on how I did it coming Monday!), full of greenery from around my yard.  But I also envision this gracing a back door, a mudroom door (it would make a great catch-all for mail and newspapers!) or even a guest room door.  Fill it with a couple of recent magazines, a pair of slippers and a rolled up bath towel to say "Welcome" with holiday flair.  When the holidays have passed, the bow can be removed and our fleur de lis component from our Mix and Match Hanger slides right into its place.  Best part?  It's one of my Merry Markdowns this month-- only $26.96!  Click HERE to place your order.

Friday's Favorite Product: Herald Angel

Because who doesn't need a beautiful angel as part of their holiday decor?  I must confess, I keep mine out all year long, because she is too lovely to pack away-- nobody puts Baby in a corner!  She goes from my foyer table, to my sideboard when I've set up a buffet dinner, to the mantle in the family room, to my kitchen island.  She's a beauty and with her neutral color palette she makes a wonderful gift -- mother, sister, niece, newlywed couple, teacher, friend.  And at the sale price of $19.96 you should pick up several.  Remember that you'll get a free cookbook from me when you place an order on my website.  Click HERE to order.

Happy Shopping and Happy Decorating!!

Friday's Favorite Product: Framework Urn

She's a beauty!  What I love about this product is that you can display her year round.  She is beautiful on her own (24 inches tall!), but with her open metal work, you can fill her with items for each season:  ornaments for the holidays, moss covered balls for spring or summer, fruit of any kind any time, pine cones (use the cinnamon ones for the aroma!), pumpkins, artichokes, birds' eggs or Easter Eggs... the list goes on and on!  And even better, she's on sale until December 15th.  Only $41.96 for now. :)  CLick HERE to get yours!

Friday's Favorite Product: Yuletide Votives

Today's Favorite is our set of Yuletide Votives.  I love these little goodies!  The set of four are glass votives nestled into rustic metal sleeves featuring a snowflake, reindeer, snowman, and a tree.  These are not just festive decorations (I line them up on my mantle!) but are excellent for serving small treats like peppermint sticks or miniature marshmallows for your hot chocolate bar.  Split them up and fill with treats for special little gifts for teachers or friends.  And a bonus?  They're on sale this month for only $23.96.  Click HERE to place your order online.

Friday's Favorite Product: Kensington Platter and Stand

After my reminder in yesterday's To Do List to pull out your serving pieces for the holiday dinner, I thought this workhorse of a product combination was the perfect Favorite for today.  Our Kensington platter is generous in size (16"x12") and a versatile creamy white so it will coordinate with any dinnerware you already have.  I love that it's dishwasher, microwave, and oven safe and is still beautiful to look at.  This month you get the platter and its mate, the iron handled stand, for only $49.96.  The graceful scrolled stand makes transporting the platter from oven to table safe and stylish!  Click HERE to order yours and you'll have it well in advance of Thanksgiving!

Friday's Favorite Product: Roxy the Reindeer Ornament

I just love this little product!  She is the perfect addition to your tree, a sweet little gift, or a creative add-on to the bottle of wine you're giving your hostess.  Not only is she on sale this month for only $10.86, but for every ornament you purchase, Willow House will donate $2.00 to the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.  Great price, great cause, perfect gift.

Friday's Favorite Product: Eyelet Ribbon Plate

I love pieces that I can pull out year-round and this beautifully crafted glass plate is just that.  The eyelet edge allows you to weave ribbon through for an added decorative touch.  Change the ribbon based on your occasion-- team colors for tailgating, raffia for a fall gathering, pastels for spring... you get the idea!  This versatile plate makes the perfect gift, too, especially at the sale price of only $29.96!

Friday's Favorite Product: NOLA Entertaining Bucket

She's a beauty!  I love that she comes with a tray and a stand to protect your surfaces and elevate her just a bit on your buffet.  And the fleur de lis motif adds a touch of style.  She's not just for serving beverages.  Keep her on your hearth for kindling and firewood.  Put a collection of fall plants in her, such as an autumn fern, a good size croton, and some trailing ivy.  Or fill her with pumpkins of all sizes for instant fall decoration on your front porch.  Only $109.96 for this gem and you can order her directly on my website now.

Friday's Favorite Product: French Wire Tiered Stand

This hard-working product has won me over! The openness of the wirework gives the French Wire Tiered Stand a light quality without sacrificing substance.  It transitions easily from a three-tiered stand to a two-tiered stand or you can use all three tiers separately.  The possibilities are endless... use it to hold fruit on your kitchen island or toiletries, wash cloths, and hand towels in your bathroom.  I picture it as an arts and crafts station in your home office or playroom.  The individual tiers are perfect for serving snacks or organizing remote controls on your coffee table.  What about mail and keys by the back door?  What else can you think of?

Of course, it's also ideal  for displaying and serving food while entertaining! My girls over at Plate and Pattern created a pirate themed children's party using the FWTS.  For $51.96, this is a steal that you will treasure.  Great gift idea, too!  Click HERE to visit my website for more or comment here to be contacted for your order. 

Friday's Favorite Product: Annabelle Iron Votives

My favorite new product today is our lovely Annabelle Iron Votives.  The ironwork is finished in a beautiful and versatile rust-brown and the glass inserts make them especially hard-working.  Use one or two to hold a beautiful bud in water and use the others with your favorite tealights.  Split them up to give as small gifts or party favors!  Fill them with a sweet treat like peppermints or chocolate kisses and then wrap in a cellophane bag with a festive ribbon.  Think teacher, neighbor, and hostess gifts! These are a great bargain at $29.96 for the set of four.  Click HERE to visit my website or contact me to place an order. 

Friday's Favorite Product: Lady Jane Bottleneck Vase

I did not expect to love these like I do, but these are gorgeous!  They are each handblown and I think you can see in the photograph the bubbles and slight imperfections in the glass that make each one unique.  Modeled after the demijohn botttles used in wine making, the Lady Jane Bottleneck Vases are statement pieces.  Because they are so simple with just a hint of color, they stand alone beautifully.  But picture them with flowers or fall branches for instant beautification.  They are the perfect accent for a sofa table, coffee table, or your dining room table.

The large vase stands a full 15 inches tall and is priced at $79.86.  The small apple green vase is not so "small" at 11 1/2 inches tall.  She can be yours for $49.96.  Host a party or catalog show and earn them both for free or 70% off.  Click HERE to visit my website and place an order.

Friday's Favorite Product: Roxy the Reindeer

I love our Roxy Reindeer Accent Towels!  These are super soft and generous in size (27x18 inches) and are only $26.96 for a set of two.  What a sweet touch to bring the warmth of the holiday season into your home.  I'm envisioning one for the kitchen and one for your powder room. 

But I'm also thinking these would be fanstastic little gifts!  Wrap a loaf of homemade banana bread or a bottle of wine in one, tie it up with raffia, and you've got a delightful gift for a hostess, teacher, neighbor, or friend.  Click here to visit my website or contact me to place your order.  Are you feeling the glimmers of holiday spirit?

Friday's Favorite Product

This week I'm beginning a new feature called Friday's Favorite Product.  This will be a fun way for me to introduce you to my favorite new Willow House products, without putting you into Willow House overload.  Can you tell I'm excited about our new Fall catalog??  Not only will you get an image of the product along with pricing information, but I'll also provide you with some great ideas for decorating, entertaining, and/or organizing with each product.  Consider me your personal product consultant. :)

Today's favorite is our beautiful Morningside Caddy.  I love the iron swirl accents and the antiqued blue-gray finish.  So fresh!  She would be lovely on a casual buffet holding your flatware, napkins, and disposable plates.  Use one of the smaller sections to pop in a few flowers-- I use a regular juice glass tucked inside the section to hold water and support the flowers.  This would also be a great organizer in your home office or your command central space to hold pens, notepads, mail, etc.  But think outside the box, too, and put this product in your guest room stocked with a magazine or two, small soaps and basic toiletries, plus a fresh wash cloth and /or hand towel.  Imagine how special your guests will feel to have this welcoming them.

Our Morningside Caddy sells for $49.96 plus shipping.  With this purchase you also qualify for a half-price special.  Choose any product in the catalog priced $40 or less for 50% off!  Comment here with your email address if you'd like to order!  Click HERE to visit my website and view the entire Fall catalog online.
