Clutter Be Gone

We’re all guilty of it – you walk in the door and just want to drop all of your stuff right there in the hallway. Before you know it, shoes, hats, bags, umbrellas, and your favorite pair of black pumps that have been missing from your closet are all piled up right there next to the front door.

Eliminate the clutter and add some pizzazz to your entryway with the Powell Heirloom Cherry Hall Tree with Storage Bench. The beautiful dark cherry piece not only provides a back panel and hooks for hanging coats and a top ledge for plants and collectibles, but the bench lifts to reveal a large storage chest as well.

So, instead of creating your own tower of “stuff,” use the Hall Tree to keep things tidy. If you’re really tempted to just drop your bags and head for the couch, the bench provides a perfect seat for a 20-second time-out before the long trek down the hall and into the TV room.

Your Room Never Looked So Sweet

Honeycombs...mmm, cereal. Think again. Yes, they look like them, yes, they have the same great appeal as they do, but no, they sure don't taste like them!

Quinze and Milan Honeycomb's are inspired by flexibility - providing a unique and stylish approach to shelving. A fun and convenient way to store your belongings, these shelves provide an enhanced structural capacity that allows stacking up to 7 meters in two directions and even allows the removal of units within a built wall to create "windows."

While honey might be a best selling color other "sweet" options include black, white, mint, cherry and light grey.

So, for all you busy bee's out there, this is a great way to get organized and keep your honey hive fashionable.

The Gamer's Lounge Chair

Inspired by the “desire to touch” is the best way to describe the Offi and Co. Coosh Lounge and Ottoman. Cut from a single block of high density foam, this lounge chair and footstool come together to create a comfortable interlocking chaise perfect for laying back and chilling out. When not in use, the two pieces fit together to form a striking, space-saving sphere that just begs for attention.

This kid-friendly piece is safe, breathable and can be moved to any room to provide a perfect seat for hanging out, watching TV or of course playing video games. So grab the Playstation, X-box, Guitar Hero or old-school N64, unroll your Coosh Lounge, and you’ll look so cool playing that it won’t matter if your 7-year-old just beat you.

Summer has come and passed...

Summer's gone - there's no denying it - but now you can savor the last few delightful nights spent in the backyard without getting the tiniest bit cold! With the Umbrella Halogen Patio Heater, time spent outside during the months of fall will feel just as pleasantly toasty as a night in July!

The halogen patio heater runs on normal household electricity, unlike other heaters that require expensive propane fuel. The unit is also very adaptable - simply attach it to any standard umbrella center pole indoor or outdoors and voila - the area is magically heated!

So grab the family and head out the back door for one more barbeque in the great outdoors - until next summer that is.

Doing Your Part - One S'more at a Time

Trying your hardest to be green? Well, here’s another eco-friendly thing to add to your energy-conscious list. The Fireside America Impulse Wall Mount Bio Fuel Fireplace is a bioethanol smokeless, ventless fireplace that adds an environmentally friendly hearth to any room. The easily mountable, high-tech, clean-burning fireplace uses continuously fed ethanol to burn for 12-15 hours. At a rate of 10 s’mores an hour, that’s roughly 120-150 delicious ooey-gooey s’mores.

It gets better – this fireplace not only cool, but it also serves a more practical purpose (yes, appearance and s’more making aren’t the only important things in life). With rising energy prices and harmful impacts on the environment, the Bio Fuel Fireplace offers a clean, safe and environmentally-friendly heating option for homes with no harmful gases, smoke, ashes or soot.

So stock up on the graham crackers, chocolate bars and marshmallows, because there is a new fireplace in town and things are about to get hot.
