I have a tendency to want to hibernate a little when Winter rolls around, so out come the blankets and the comfy throw pillows. I love spending a snowy day curled up under a blanket with a mug of tea and a good DVD.
I'm sure I'm not the only one who indulges in some wintertime hibernating, so if you have someone in your life who's known for cozying up on the couch, give them what they want: more ways to get cozy!

Curling up on the couch during Hibernation month? Amy Butler, my beloved go-to textile designer, has sent us two of her Jade Horizon Pillows ($37 each) for you to have and to hold from this day forward. The total value of the prize is $74. 
While I do understand that wide belts have been "in" for the last couple of years, I don't think I'd want one "in" my home, particularly on a pillow like this. For those of you who don't speak French, this Z Gallerie Mode Pillow is named "Mode" because that word means "in fashion." Do you think belted pillows are fashionable?
I have a martini- and olive-addicted friend who would love love love these pillows. But me? Not a fan. 
I used to live around the corner from Rose and Radish, so I'm glad the gallery/boutique/flower shop is becoming a major presence online. The physical store is a showcase for constantly revolving pieces: Every three months, Rose and Radish choses a different theme (such as "round" or "tea time") and curates a collection based on the theme.
If you're ever in San Francisco, I encourage you to stop by; the floral designs, in particular, are a must-see. 
In case you hadn't noticed, people are totally crazy for cupcakes right now: eating them, wearing them, and constructing them into wedding cakes.
But what most tempts my sweet tooth are all of the adorable cupcake-motif home items available, from subtle cake-shaped votive candle holders to pillows that look good enough to eat. Here are some of my favorite accessories to add some sugary style to your home. 
A fashionista can never have too many accessories, so why not apply that same philosophy to your home? Just as an eye-catching necklace or handbag can transform an outfit, one unique throw pillow can completely liven up an otherwise basic couch, bed, or armchair. And don't be afraid to mix and match unexpected graphics and patterns.
