If you are a country girl (or boy) at heart this is a great catalog for you.  It has lots of items for the kitchen inclduing dishes, cookbooks, recipe organizers, baking mixes and more. Every page of the catalog is just packed with items.
There are ideas for Halloween and Christmas in this particular catalog. I […]

The latest Pottery Barn catalog is advertising savings of up to $200 on rugs throughout the catalog. I actually have a rug from them, I’ve had it for several years and I still like it. My dining room set is also from Pottery Barn and I love that as well. I have the Megan chairs […]

The ios or individual original style catalog has some fun items. It reminds me of Chicos if you like that store. I like how outfits are put together and grouped. I also like the fun colors, patterns and textures of clothing. Everything has bold colors and/or patterns to them. These clothes are not for the […]

If you like funky and off-beat this catalog might interest you. In all honesty it’s not my style, but I can see how some people would really like it. The idea behind the items are geared towards personal growth and exploration. If you like fairies, renaissance festivals, science fiction movies, gothic themes, witches and dragons this […]

I really like the Plow & Hearth catalog and I’ve ordered several items from them in the past. There is a wide range of products offered for decoration or furniture or window treatments. The items are definitely geared towards a more relaxed sense of style.
I ordered window treatments and hearth tools. I’ve also ordered Fatwood […]

For the traveler or adventurer this is a great catalog. It offers women’s and men’s clothing in relaxed styles. I have never purchased anything from them because the style is a little “woodsy” for me. However, it does give great gift ideas for that person who has the right style.
Lots of flannel shirts, jeans and […]

This is one of those catalogs I think just about everyone gets. Crate & Barrel is a great place for basic furniture, rugs and kitchen items. I have always gone to Crate & Barrel for glassware. I think their prices and selection of stemware and glassware if excellent. It’s also an awesome place to register […]

This catalog situates itself as a catalog that has “style with a conscience.” The items are manufactured by people who do not work in sweat shop type conditions. The company seems to have good ethics behind it. It’s nice to support a company that supports those types of values.
The clothing is classic, timeless and quite […]

If you love artistic and jewelry that you can’t find at any department store I would recommend this catalog. This company was started by James Avery and the pieces are artistic, earthy and high quality. When you see these pieces in real life you will be surprised by their weight, texture and quality.
I have a […]
