When I got home, I googled and found that ABC Carpet & Home has identified this as a trend already and launched their “Color Reform” collection. Check out these rugs, stunning! Brilliant! I want a pink one now…
About the collection, each vintage rug was put through a process to neutralize the original colors while still retaining the essence of its design and then each rug was over-dyed to create a solid color with dimension.
“The Color Reform Collection by ABC Carpet began as a vision to salvage imperfect, vintage carpets and resulted in a revolutionary movement of color. Inconsistencies are the nature of this product and make each piece unique. A carpet once traditional is now a contemporary work of art.”
What do you think of these carpets? I LOVE them.

Looking for an easy way to update a room? Grab a can of paint and give your table a makeover! We love the unexpected use of bright color seen on tables lately. This trend is a simple (not to mention affordable) option if you’re looking to spruce up your space. We recommend transforming a table that’s already the focal point of a room (think: kitchen tables, coffee tables, or even desks). Select a vibrant color to compliment a neutral environment, but be careful about adding color elsewhere in the room. Small accessories in similar tones, such as accent pillows or vases, will tie the look together in no time!
Dear Supporter,
On behalf of the Celadon and Celery, I would like to thank all of our floral students from LA for supporting the “”pop-up” shop. We had the pure pleasure of meeting so many enthusiastic, inquisitive, and kind students at our workshops. The outpouring of support was astounding, and never in our wildest dreams did we think the concept of “celery on the run” would be so well received. Thank you for coming to our classes, for being honest with us in your reviews, and most of all, for your continuous support.
I would also like to take this opportunity to thank my staff, both in NY and in LA, for the exceptional dedication and hard work each of you has shown to CC over the months. I truly feel fortunate to have worked with every single one of you. Sarah, you are the most sincere, patient and compassionate assistant and I am truly appreciative. Dana, Ted, Dolores, Evalina, Hayden, and Marisa, you are the team of CC, and you are all just absolutely magnificent – each and every one of you. I really appreciate your willingness to help out wherever needed. It’s that kind of flexibility and dedication that has allowed this company to grow to its full potential.
The Laughing Heart
Your life is your life
don’t let it be clubbed into dank submission.
Be on the watch.
There are ways out.
There is a light somewhere.
It may not be much light but
it beats the darkness.
Be on the watch.
The gods will offer you chances.
Know them.
Take them.
You can’t beat death but
you can beat death in life, sometimes.
And the more often you learn to do it,
the more light there will be.
Your life is your life.
Know it while you have it.
You are marvelous
the gods wait to delight
in you.
