OM home Inventory Clearance Sale

We're still reeling from the fabulous press we received from HGTV a couple weeks back. What a thrill to say, "As seen on HGTV!" We're also super excited for our new line of bedding, to be launched in time for the NYIGF next February. We just finished the new designs and love, love, love them!

With all this activity, we're clearing out some inventory to make room for all the new goodies!! From $15-$65, that's up to 50% off on select items from now until the end of November!

With the holidays approaching, OM home products make great gifts for your co-workers, friends and family with a sense of style and social responsibility! All of our products come with a little pamphlet detailing the story behind our line. Just in time for the holiday season, these are gifts that give back AND are easy on the wallet!

Mullen Street Line
This is one of our most popular products. We've reissued the Mullen Street Pillows in linen and have discontinued the white and natural varieties. 14"x14" or 18"x18", 100% cotton, hand embroidered, hidden zipper closure, solid fabric backing, poly fill insert. Pillows originally $90, now only $65 and small pillows originally $80, now only $40!

New Market Line
We love the amazing detail behind the New Market line, the embroidery is exquisite! We sold out of this line several times throughout the year and we're sad to see this one go. We think the new color will be pretty great too, change is good!

This makes a great gift for a teenager!

OM home in Silent Auction


It's that time of year again and I'm happy to announce that OM home has once again donated some of our product line to help a wonderful school located in New York, the East Harlem School.

Located in East Harlem, a poverty stricken area of New York where many talented youth are unable to receive the education they deserve, EHS provides a unique program for students.

This is the second year OM home has donated items to their annual benefit and silent auction, last year we had multiple bids and the winning bid was over $300.

We're so thrilled to be a part of this and we hope this year will be even better!

As seen on HGTV!

The incredibly nice and talented color forecaster, Catherine B Stein from The Color Council, stopped by our booth at the NYIGF in August. During a phone interview sometime later, we spoke about everything from color to Aurora Borealis to the colors in Aurora Borealis, it was a real pleasure to speak with her.

It was an even bigger pleasure to see the posting on Caren Baginski's HGTV design blog this morning, New York International Gift Fair: Asian Style. What a thrill, thanks Catherine and Caren!

Etsy Buy: Ceramic Owls

While I was away visiting family in New Jersey, I received my next etsy purchase, lovely Ceramic owls from Fruit Fly Pie out of Tabor City, North Carolina. A popular shop with lots of vintage style ceramics and embroidered linens, Wendy, the crafter behind Etsy, was a pleasure to buy from!

Ceramic Owl Spoon Rest Vintage Design Spring Green, $14

Ceramic Owl Scrubby Holder or Ashtray 70s Orange, $9.99

I wanted something vintage, colorful and crafty for the kitchen to go with the scheme of our open concept living/dining/kitchen area and I think these are a great fit for the space. Sanj thinks they're too crafty for his taste, mainly because the brush strokes are visible and the glaze isn't opaque (unlike the picture) but we both love how unique and colorful the pieces are, a great addition to the space! Nicely done Wendy!

Poppytalk Handmade is Live!


"Poppytalk Handmade is a monthly online street market to showcase, buy and sell handmade goods of emerging design talent from around the world."

Thanks to Jan at Poppytalk for including OM home in her first ever online market, we're very thrilled to be a part of such an amazing group of talented indy designers!

They're still working out a few kinks, but what I see so far looks really great, check out our table here!

Etsy Buy: The Spicy Pumpkin Scarflette



Unlike the spicy pumpkin latte at Starbucks, this has no calories! Meredith, from SnipSnap Designs, is the creator of the lovely item and I was very happy with the whole process. Her packaging was so sweet too, I felt like I was opening a gift from a friend!

Only $16 for a unique, handmade, high quality scarflette? Thanks Meredith!

My First Etsy Buy: Chickadee Fabrics



I received my first etsy purchase in the mail today from Chickadee Fabrics out of Virginia. I was happy to see the picture was very close to what I received and now that I learned how to use my sewing machine (thanks to Nathalie-Roze's Workshops), I can use it for curtains and a seat cover!

Thank you to Judy from Chickadee for making the process so painless, no wonder she has 100% positive feedback on Etsy, I'll definitely order from her again!
