so, after much purposeful avoidance, i finally went to target the other nite to check out their new line of Orla Kiely products. Orla Kiely is a an Irish-born, 'internationally adored' fashion and textile designer of whimsical, colorful and bold, simplistic patterns. (http://www.orlakiely.com/usa/) back in february, Target started selling a line of housewares/and other products featuring her designs.
to my chagrin, i could barely find any of these fantastic products-- they were wiped out (i guess?) save for 2 lonely pear placemats, sitting at the end of an aisle, on clearance. (!)
and so now, yes, i am the proud owner of these 2 pear placemats--
which look fabulous on my 1970's goldflecked table in my stop-sign red kitchen!
some more of her goodness:
OMG! I know what you are talking about. I have been looking forward to these! Love them!
