What We Love in Home and Garden

With our eye on Home and Garden this month, VIE loves the idea of vintage, recycled, and colorful accent pieces to create a one-of-a-kind statement—anything to reflect the personal style that makes your dwelling distinctively yours.

Unique tabletop accents. A delicate tray crafted from recycled Italian glass features a recycled glass globe with a natural sea fan and decorative magnolia, making a simple surface instantly chic and stylish. (Beau Interiors. Grayton Beach, Fla. 850-534-0700)

Fragrances that make it feel like home. For us, the Seaside line captures the essence of our Gulf-side abode perfectly. Featured here: Seaside Body Lotion, Seaside Home Fragrance, and Seaside Aloe Vera. (Exclusive to Pizitz Home and Cottage. Seaside, Fla. 850-231-2240)

Coffee-table books that radiate style. Our favorite is the new 30A Style, written by Eleanor Lynn Nesmith and photographed by Jean Allsopp. It captures the heart of 30A through interior design. (Sundog Books. Seaside, Fla. www.sundogbooks.com)

Retro accent trunks. These medium and large vintage-style trunks are the perfect addition to any room, porch, or patio. Use them anywhere as decorative storage pieces or stack them next to a chair for an instant side table. (EJG Interiors. Grayton Beach, Fla. 850-231-6806)

Colorful accent planters. A yellow porcelain planter is the perfect pop of color in any home or garden. Display it empty or as a unique vessel to showcase your favorite long-stemmed greenery or plants. (Bastide Home and Garden. Santa Rosa Beach, Fla. www.bastidehomeandgarden.com)
