Inspiration 4.12

Loved these shots from the latest Anthropologie catalog...

Last Look: All is Calm

I am adoring this simple, country table setting discovered on The City Sage. With the craziness of holiday shopping and parties in full swing, this makes a quiet, Christmas dinner for two seem positively dreamy...

Artist Spotlight: Nathalie Lete

I'm sure many of you have already fallen in love with Nathalie Lete's ceramics currently commissioned by Anthropologie. I own an adorable octopus plate that I use to corral stuff in the bathroom, and I've been following her designs since that purchase. The especially gorgeous nautical platter above inspired me to learn a bit more about her.

Lete is a French artist who makes just about everything you can imagine. Prints, postcards, children's books, toys, sculptures and rugs, but here ceramics are definitely where she shines the brightest. Check out more of her charming designs below:
