Passage to India

I’m seeing more and more Indian influences in the wild world of design. It’s a personal favorite of mine - especially when it comes to textiles. The colors are perfect for summer. Here’s a Friday afternoon tour.

These accessories are from my new favorite discoveries, Novica and Kaaya. The hand painted box, by artist Shivji Ram Mali, is $115. The hand crafted Mehendi candle comes in a variety of styles and is $98.

Saris make fantastic curtains and pillows. This hand embroidered sari is available on eBay shop Indian Delight for $24.99. The pink pillow cover comes in a set of three - all hand embroidered, for $32.99. The other two (also hand embroidered) are from Kaaya and retail for $62 (blue) and $72 (yellow).

Novica is associated with National Geographic. They sell products from six different world regions.
