Behind the Bar: Tina Frey's Negroni

Have a great weekend :) R+A

IDEA & Hay - Just in!

We just received a shipment of great new products from Japanese design collective, IDEA. My personal favorite is the Rechargeable USB Card Speaker which puts off excellent (and loud) sound when connected to your iPhone, computer, iPad, cell phone, et al. The sleek design and tough metal construction makes it perfect for the design-conscious traveler.

We also received a container of furniture from the design collective HAY. The container is still being unpacked but we did get the indoor/outdoor DLM Side Table up on the boutique as quickly as we could. It comes in yellow, green and black and the handle on top makes it portable enough to take along with you. Made from lightweight powder-coated steel and is made for either indoor or outdoor use. Check out below for an image of another cool design from HAY that will soon be listed in the boutique... super cool, eh?!

Hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend.

I can't believe it's Friday already. Check out our post on Design*Sponge's Behind the Barcolumn for a recipe to create some Friday night goodness! And if you haven't heard about Barbara Merritt's "chelliswilson." please go to the website and blog now. But beware, you may spend hours clicking through her inspiring posts. Don't say I didn't warn you!

Thank God it's Friday!

Today, after work, I am heading to our Trader Joe's to pick up some Blood Orange Soda. I don't know about you guys but it has been a long week at HORNE Headquarters. I have never been more ready to make one of our Behind the Bar creations than I am today. This month's drink is courtesy of Dia Rao and Patrick Haynes, the Sardinian Blood Orange Mojito.

Dia & Patrick are dear friends of ours and had their drink featured over at Design*Sponge on our Behind the Bar column. Check it out for the full recipe and a nice start to your Friday evening.

Jieldé

I stumbled across this image while perusing some blogs yesterday. It is a great example of how two different styles of Jieldé lamps can be used in one room. I love how they used magazines to raise the height of the desk lamp!

It's been too long...

Hello Again!

We know it has been awhile since we have updated our blog but fear not we have many exciting things in store for HORNE. We have been busy finding the coolest gifts for the holiday season and working on a new addition to our website. Plus, not only did we move to a shiny new warehouse but Ryan and I also moved to a shiny new condo!

We will soon be adding new products from Suki Cheema, Joseph Joseph, IDEA International and Harry Allen. All of these items would make great holiday gifts so check back soon!

Have a great weekend!
