Rajboori Now Available in Calgary!

Andrew and Riva Mackie of Riva's The Eco Store in Calgary recently opened the doors to their new location in Calgary.  Just before Labor Day we delivered the Rajboori collection to their store and they were received with much appreciation! Now the products are on display in their lovely store and the design savvy of Calgary can now find their favorite Rajboori piece for their homes.

Rajboori now available at Riva's - The Eco Store

The Rajboori collection was delivered to Riva's - The Eco Store in Calgary, AB earlier this week and you can now stop by their lovely store to make your selection from our collection!  You'll have a choice of pillows, coverlets/throws, and quilts for the upcoming Fall/Winter.  Remember, silk is an all season fabric.

To rejuvenate my spirits and to say farewell to summer, we're heading out to Jasper-Banff-Yoho!  I hope to return with more colors and shades imprinted in my memory for our future collections!

Rajboori featured in Trend Bible, UK

Trend Bible, a publication based in the UK (http://www.trendbible.co.uk/blog/) featured our collection in their Lifestyles for the Home, Autumn/Winter 2011/12!  They spotted us at Maison & Objet in Jan, 2010, and decided to feature us as one of the trendsetters in design and colors for the future.  Needless to say, we're thrilled!

Special Note: Our Jolie pillow was featured as a "Key Item"!
Here are some images from the publication....

Moca and Jolie sold from Provide!

The weekend is here and I'm off to Seattle for a day to meet an old and dear friend.  This summer has been a summer of guests, meeting friends, and enjoying some great moments. Isn't that what life is all about?

Our Moca and Jolie pillows have found new homes after leaving their comfortable shelf at Provide.  I'm starting to get my creative juices flowing so that I can start conceptualizing the new collection for 2011.  This is the best part of my job!

Rajboori products in photo shoot in South Africa for Room39, London

Our Rangoli Quilt and pillow and the Holi 12" pillow were part of a photo shoot done in South Africa recently by our client, Room39, London. The photo here is a part of that and I just love how "luxuriously lived-in" our collection looks in this setting!

Rajboori will soon be available at Room39 this Fall!

Spreading the Rajboori story...Eastward

I had been planning a trip to New York and surrounding areas to meet with some buyers/owners of a few stores that were interested in the RAJBOORI collection.  So, I took my samples and headed out Eastward to NY-CT towards the end of June.

It's always great to meet new people, learn about their entrepreneurial stories, and to see their unique styles be expressed through their collections in their stores.  I loved the following stores and more so, the people behind them:

King's Road Home - British owned by Christian Carlsen and inspired by the trendy and fashionable King's Road in London, this large SOHO store has a great collection of one-of-a-kind furniture produced by artisans.  It can be described as eco-chic as most pieces are made from salvaged wood.  They also have a fantastic collection of Moroccan designed lamps that I loved! Soho, NY - www.kingsroadhome.com

Homeward Bound - New Milford itself is a cute little town where a bridge forms a street and is conveniently called Bridge Street!  Homeward Bound, owned by dynamic duo Kathy Walsh and Trip Rothschild, has two locations, New Milford and West Hartford.  A wonderfully eclectic store with furniture and decor pieces from local and global sources placed casually all throughout the two level store. We're looking forward to seeing Rajboori pillows as part of their assortment soon. New Milford, CT, www.homewardboundstyle.com

The Drawing Room - Is it a cafe, is it a home decor store?  It's both!  Located in Cos Cob, CT, the Drawing Room is such a lovely boutique store with a cafe where you can sit and enjoy a cup of tea with friends while nibbling on some delectable finger food.  Once you step inside the store, you can see the amazing creative expression of husband-wife duo of Mike and Kenleigh Larock.  Each piece is carefully selected by the owners and the vibrant mood in the collection really resonated with me.  Needless to say, Rajboori will find a happy home here!
