Lulu & Georgia + A Cranberry Drink Recipe

Today, I'm excited to share some fabulous items from Lulu & Georgia with you all. They are one of my absolute favorite places to shop for home decor online! Everything from lamps to furniture to accessories to rugs, they have it. And their selection is goooood. It's all gorgeous and stylish, but at the same time it's quirky and fun. I think that's the best balance--beautiful, but not stuffy. If you ask me, every room should have at least one cheeky item that makes you smile. You're not boring, right? So your home should have some personality, too!

Bedside styling

For this post, I picked out a few accessories that I wanted for myself--but would also make great gifts. My favorite is that Jonathan Adler phone dock. It's SO CUTE, right?!? And it totally makes me smile every time I look at it. I've also been wanting the metallic zebra dish for awhile, so I got one of those too.

Now let's talk about that candle. The scent is teakwood & tobacco and it smells sooo good. I would have never guessed that I'd like a tobacco-scented candle (I think cigarettes stink), but I smelled one out of curiosity when we were on our trip to the South and really liked it. I regretted not buying it then, so I was glad when I saw that Lulu & Georgia had the same one!

Cranberry fizz recipe + cute glassware and tray

I also got a few things for our dining room. My favorite is that “fancy another?” tray. I love it! And I'm pretty obsessed with the glasses and pitcher too. Give me everything pink and gold.

I also thought it would be fun to share the recipe for the drink I have in these photos. I made it after Thanksgiving with some leftover Martinelli's and cranberries, but it would be good any time! It’s quick and easy, refreshing, and not too sweet (and did I mention, really easy?). If you prefer something a bit sweeter, you could always add sugar or lemonade.

Ingredients:
One can of cranberry juice concentrate
One bottle of Sprite or ginger ale
One bottle of sparkling cider (or sparkling wine)
Fresh cranberries

Just mix together the top three ingredients and top with cranberries! Easy.

Fancy another?

Whether it's something you picked up on a memorable trip, a funny art print, or a cheeky accessory...what are the items in your home that make you smile whenever you see them?

    The phone stand is so adorable! I'm checking it out...curious if it's a charger or speaker!
    • Posted by Aileen on Tuesday, December 9th, 2014

      Thanks! It's a charger, not a speaker. The cord feeds up through a hole on the bottom :)

    Smart idea for a phone stand! Is it also a charger? I feel like I've got plenty of quirky things... Our anniversary thrift store find for starters, the pixelated tiger print, vinyl letters on everything! No point in taking design to seriously!!

      Yes it is! And yeah, your home has lots of personality :) I love it.

    Jim calls me the nick-nack lady! The things right now that make me smile is a huge giraffe my grandbaby's love. (A mothers day gift from Jim I wanted to send back ;)!) I also love many of my little Heart sculptures, and of course my birds. Your phone charger is perfect.

      Aww, that's so funny! Glad you didn't send that giraffe back. Yeah, when I got that zebra dish Ben told me "you know you have a problem when you get a trinket to hold all your trinkets." Haha!
