Exotic Decor at Our Dallas store

We are fortunate enough to go on several trips a year to such exotic locations as India, China, and South America. During our journeys we stumble across unique items that might be vintage, antiques, or even the last one left. So, every trip, we're sure to bring our empty suitcases to fill with these rare finds so we can carry them back home.

Handmade Books in Jaipur, India

Making Books by Hand

This company was started when three young friends rented a booth at a trade fair 14 years ago to sell books and bags made of handmade paper. This Indian artisan has grown great lengths since then and now specializes in handmade paper, bags, books, and leather products. They are located in Jaipur, India and also have a small group of designers and workers from a small village outside of Jaipur.

 

Charley in her Owl Costume

You may recognize our newest Wisteria “model,” Charley, in our fall catalogs (She made her debut in our summer spreads earlier this year). In our Halloween collection, she is shown as a very adorable blue owl, and I couldn’t help but ask Paige, our Creative Manager, how she came up with this fantastic costume.

I was surprised to learn that it was quite simple. She cut out felt and fabric from an old men’s suit (she found at a thrift store for super-cheap) and hot glued them to an over-sized black t-shirt. That’s right, NO SEWING! Since you overlap the “feathers,” the glue doesn’t show. Even the mask was an easy task; felt glued to an inexpensive, basic black mask from the craft store.

Voila!
