Enough with the boring traditional vase, it’s time for change. When decorating a room you want to create an environment that is more appealing not only to the eye but also to the mind. Check out the Bud Vase from Styles In Clay. With its donut shape, it’s far from ordinary. You can either fill your vase with fresh cut flowers or a bulb. The bulb is neat because you set it on the top of the vase and watch it grow into a living floral arrangement! Everything is blooming outdoors in the spring, why not bring that kind of beauty inside? stylesinclay

If you like modern and unusual furniture, then you might want to check out this unique chair by Ultra Modern. The Galileo Chair comes in black or orange. It has a very sleek design, but I’m a little skeptical about the comfort level of this oddly shaped seat. It would look amazing in the right room, and for $317, I’m sure the designers took comfort into consideration.

Having a dinner party and need some edgy decor? Maybe you just need to add a little something to you kitchen? Here’s a great idea from The Spoon Sisters. The Swiss Cheese Candle ($16), made from bees wax and is so realistic, it looks like a real block of cheese! But if the candle doesn’t seem to be enough for you, there are also Olive and Wine Cork Candles to go along with your theme. Next time you have a dinner party make sure that before you announce, “Bon Apetit!”, you warn them that the candle and not part of the cheese tray!
