While wicker can often look too country when it's found in more traditional shapes, this sleek chair looks decidedly modern in this space. I love it when my preconceptions about certain materials or pieces are proven false!

Su Casa member RachelG recently decided to prettify the outdoor space directly outside her front door. Not only did she add visual interest, she also provided some great outdoor seating and entertaining space. Best of all, she didn't spend a lot of money doing so.

While I'm absolutely in love with Carrie's new apartment, there are many other aspects of the Sex and the City movie set that I'm equally in love with. One of these would have to be the wicker egg chair from the fab four's Mexico vacation.
I think that this chair is a brilliant casting choice; its design perfectly mirrors Carrie's emotional state in this scene in the movie, and provides welcome shelter to her, even as Samantha, Miranda, and Charlotte soak in the sun.

All right, so I never saw The Wicker Man, but these clips make it look like the most ridiculous movie ever. Though, to be fair, wackjob Nicolas Cage provides about 90 percent of the crazy factor. What do you think is going on in this movie?

I first saw these great wicker shades on eco-designer Danny Seo's blog. Since then I've checked them out at Ikea, both in-store and in the catalog. While I'm not a huge wicker fan, these lamp shades have a cool shape, and the extra-gigantic size for the larger shades—you could fit yourself and a friend's heads and shoulders under one of them—definitely makes an unexpected statement.

I'm on the fence on this one, readers. It's kind of cool, but it's also bizarrely spacepod-like, down to the porthole "windows" on the sides. The Palmetto Honey All-Weather Wicker Egg Chair ($1,299) is water-repellent, weather-resistant, and made from a durable-aluminum frame covered in wicker.

Su Casa member RachelG decided to add her two cents to my decorating with yellow post and give an old book table and wicker chair a makeover with a few coats of sunny yellow spray paint. She put the two pieces in separate rooms, which creates cohesiveness throughout her home, not to mention adds a bit of zing! Want to see the furniture in the bright new shade?

Give your girl and her dolls a wardrobe of their own! Before tossing the playthings' clothing and accessories in another plastic tub, consider investing in an authentic doll chest that will neatly hold the items and allow lil hands to access them without dumping everything on the floor. Like the trunks our mothers and grandmothers used generations ago, these armoires are designed to showcase the dolls' precious duds while teaching their owners about the importance of caring for their things.
