Top Picks from Arteriors Home

For those who attended the recent High Point Market, one thing was clear, "metal" is still really big. Seen on everything from lighting to mirrors to furniture, in smooth or hammered finish, metal is here to stay. Whether creating an entire industrial look or just adding a piece here and there for that hip vibe, we've picked our top 5 favorites from Arteriors Home that will give you the look so desired.

Small and Wide Hayden Pendant Lights from Arteriors Home are classic and simple shaped lights for the kitchen. They are ideal when paired with stainless steel appliances, especially because of the textured hammered finish.

Next up is the Hayes Mirror from Arteriors Home. The quatrefoil shape is an immediate eye catcher for any room. The zinc frame around the bevelled mirror inset is the perfect look for a modern powder room. Another look we like is grouping them (possibly 4) together for an art display that reflects at the same time.

We had to include the Hill Lamp in our list. Even though it's not metal, it will no doubt be a favorite for designers and home owners. The red color of this ceramic light from Arteriors Home fits right in with the metal craze. This table lamp infuses the perfect pop of color to brighten things up, don't you think?

Finally we picked the Halton Table as our fifth favorite from Arteriors Home. This interesting piece of furniture features a galvanized surface topping a natural wooden "x" base. With a diameter of 41.5", it's versatile for a home or office. Certainly a striking look for an entry way, small kitchen or arts and crafts area.

Of course there are many more favorites from Arteriors Home new Spring collection, so be sure to check them all out here at Clayton Gray Home!

Thirteen and South Blog - More Industrial

Thanks for the mention....

Naomi of Thirteen and South blogged recently about "industrial goodness" and featured the Metal Production Table (shown above) and the Rivets Chair (shown below) from Clayton Gray Home.

Isn't it nice to be mentioned? It just really makes our day around here! So, after taking a few minutes to poke around the Thirteen and South blog, we were immediately grinning from ear to ear. Naomi has taken on a fun renovation project -- her own home! Even though the project is in the "not so fun stage" of electrical and AC ducts, readers can see a play-by-play of the entire project as directed from a design professional.

Certainly not a novice in this area, Naomi and her dad, Andrew (shown above) run the construction business Design Manifest in Philadelphia, PA.

The family-run business has 35 years of experience under their belts, so we're pretty sure they can handle this project. In the meantime, we'll stay updated with her blog to see how things are coming along. Don't worry Naomi - we still think you are cool!
