We kicked things off with a bit of spring cleaning: a fresh header and a lighter, brighter background throughout the site. We’re pretty happy with the new look and hope you are too. If anything looks off on your computer, try refreshing and then clearing your browser’s cache/cookies/data.
It’s been a while since our last window shopping post. As always, these outings aren’t sponsored — we simply stroll through stores with a camera and share what catches our eye. This post was overdue, but revisiting the photos has me excited all over again. We stopped at the Pottery Barn Outlet in Georgia while visiting Katie Bower and meeting Weston for the first time, and the store was full of inspiring finds. Let’s take a look around.
Right away we spotted a sweet heart chandelier priced at $14.99. It seems like an easy DIY — an embroidery hoop, fishing wire, and red paper or felt could get you a similar look. For a larger scale, you could even use a giant hula hoop as the base.
This small pink kids’ chair was $19 and really charming. It would make a playful pop of color in a subdued kitchen or home office.
These $35 kids’ chairs had a classic cottage feel. They were solid and neutral enough to fit into many spaces. Painting the legs in a bold color like red or turquoise would make them extra fun.
The red play kitchen was irresistible, marked down to $124 due to a missing dial. While it’s pricier than a DIY build, it’s comparable to some store options and the bright color makes it especially appealing. A small kitchen timer could easily replace the missing dial.
At $4.99, these little alligators were adorable — definitely one of those items I wish I’d grabbed that day.
There were some dramatic, chunky floor lamps that caught our attention. They were pricey, but would make bold statement pieces in the right home — think of the warm, lived-in sets from films like Something’s Gotta Give or The Holiday.
These substantial glass lamps were $49 each and really striking. If we had space, I would have taken both home.
This pendant was $49 and versatile — it would look lovely over a breakfast table or in a bedroom. Its long drop would work best in spaces where clearance isn’t an issue, like an entryway with high ceilings or a cozy breakfast nook.
Some chairs were priced at $267 each — steep, but very luxe-looking with leather, wood, and antique-style hardware. They had a Restoration Hardware vibe and felt effortlessly chic.
Rugs were plentiful, and I especially loved a bold red rug with a crisp white stripe. I used to think of red as strictly traditional, but it’s surprisingly contemporary and fun. I’m officially a red convert and wish I had space for that rug.
There was a dry erase calendar for around $40 that looked very useful. You could recreate a similar version at home with dry erase paint, stencils, or craft-store letter stickers.
An egg tray caught my eye as a festive Easter centerpiece — imagine it filled with colorful dyed eggs.
The train table, $49 each and stacked four high in the photo, was one of those items we wished we could fit in the car. It would make a great play surface or even a casual coffee table with a raised edge to keep crayons and markers from rolling off.
A $35 wine barrel tray looked much larger in person — basically the size of a barrel bottom. It would be perfect for serving family-style dishes on a large table. Adding a lazy susan underneath could transform it into an impressive rotating centerpiece.
This $49 basket was big, with chunky handles and an open weave. They were beautiful, though pricier than the cheaper storage baskets we use at home.
One standout piece was a $499 cabinet with lots of shallow drawers — very aspirational. It would be ideal for organizing art supplies, prints, and small items you want easy access to.
That wraps up our little virtual window-shopping tour. We love popping into different stores now and then — from Target and World Market to Ikea, thrift stores, and independent shops. What have you been eyeing lately? Any DIY projects in the works inspired by things you’ve seen, like dipped chair legs, paper mobiles, or custom dry erase calendars?
