ALL TIED UP IN KNOTS

One of my favorite design trends is KNOTS! Leave it to Kelly Wearstler to make a sailing knot cool! using a ground linen fabric with heavy cotton knot embroidery, the House of KWID turns sailing knots into high fashion for the home. The fabric comes in 3 colorways and works fabulously as an upholstry fabric or as a decorative pillow. At over $400 a yard, I’m sticking to pillows.

Ann Gish also puts her spin on “the knot” with her crushed silk napkins. They retail for $30 a piece, but you can re-create the same look on a budget. Just take some napkins made of thin material… wrinkle them up… then tie a knot in the center, and voila… A fresh new look for a tired table.

Dransfield and Ross have been trendsetters for years in the world of bedding and pillows. Their “Flagship” line of pillows just screams Nautical Chic. The “knot board pillow”(below) would be great in a little boy’s room by the beach.
