AT Editor Picks January 12 2024
“I’m already scoping out V-Day decor for this year (it’s never too early!) and this cute coupe from Anthropologie has officially won my heart — and a spot on my bar cart. Choose from pink or lilac colors for the perfect under-$20 Galentines gift or dinner party dessert glasses.” —Blair Donovan, Style Editor
“I know, I know … checkerboard patterns aren’t feeling as fresh as they once were, but I couldn’t help snagging two yards of Lulu and Georgia x Sarah Sherman Samuel’s Hi-Lo Checker Velvet Fabric, which was on sale after the holiday season (and still is currently discounted). What can I say? I love checkers! I ordered the olive for a bench cushion project, and it’s gorgeous in person. What you can’t quite see from the photos is the amazing play of textures between the velvet squares and the base material. Check out the ivory colorway, too; it’s a real bargain at 40% off!” —Danielle Blundell, Executive Home Director
“After being gifted four sets of the Sabre Bistrot Vintage Finish Flatware (shoutout to my mom!), I can definitely say that holding a gorgeous fork elevates any meal. I could be eating takeout on my couch, and this silverware makes it feel like I'm eating at a fine-dining restaurant. Plus, the silverware comes in several colors to match any aesthetic.” —Cullen Ormond, Home Associate Editor
“This $30 milk frother from Target is making me feel like a barista in my own kitchen. It’s perfect for making at-home coffee — or, like I’ve been doing lately, hot cocoa — feel a little fancier.” —Sarah Everett, Assistant Home Editor
“I was looking for an easy way to refresh my kitchen and inject it with a fun print (I can never get enough patterns!), and this vinyl mat is the missing puzzle piece. It comes in tons of different sizes, styles, and colors, but the black-and-white diamond pattern mimics real floor tiles, and adds a touch of flair without being too flashy. Super durable, easy to clean, and pet-friendly, it works in any room of the house as a functional staple with style.” —Quinn Fish, Staff Writer
