Where to find the good stuff

Now that the holidays are behind us and we are into the new year, you may have an itch to refresh your interior. No need to spend hours going from one showroom to another to find that perfect rug or coffee table. Why not do your browsing from the comfort of your own sofa.

There are so many web boutiques to choose from now. All have high quality products that are delivered to your doorstep and ready to settled into your interior.

Here are a few of my favorites:

• MyFab - A collection of furniture, lighting, art and accessories. Orders are collected and made in bulk mostly in China. Don't be fooled, MyFab tests their products from quality and safety and their prices are competitive for well designed furnishings.
  

• Made in Design - If you are looking for the real thing, this is the site for you. They have all the latest goodies by top designers such as: Stark, Kartell, Alessi and many more.
  

• Le Pelican - They've got everything from teacups to tables. Often featuring new design trends such as ethanol burning fireplaces and the latest in wall stickers, the Pelican can help you add a finishing touch to your interior or allow you to revamp it from top to bottom.

• Bonjour Toile - This site transforms your snapshots into works of art. After uploading your photo, you choose the size, the finish and even have the option to add an effect such as sepia or a funky background. A 60 x 60cm photo reproduced on a canvas then stretched over a wooden frame goes for 52€. Not a bad price to immortalize yourself or your favorite photo for your wall.

• Ikea Hacker - For those of you who are DIYers and fans of IKEA, this site is a must see. They don't sell anything, but you couldn't pay for better ideas. This blog shares creative transformations on any and all IKEA items. This site is one of my favorites as it truly shares my passion for relooking and reusing.
  

I hope these sites provide a resource as well as inspiration for your interior. Good luck!
