Today, I’d like to share a few of my favorite new house-related purchases. One of the places I religiously visit when I’m in New York is Fish’s Eddy, which has the best selection of dishes, both vintage relics from restaurants and airlines in addition to clever new offerings.

I was flipping through this month’s Domino when an offer near the back of the issue caught my attention: Modern Dose was offering a buy one, get one free special (with free shipping!) on these S shaped chairs.
