Big Deal: Hable Construction Stocking Sale

Erin Behan — Thu, 11 Dec 2008 21:59:00 GMT

I love Hable Construction stockings a lot (in fact, I wrote about them in last year's 5 days of Stockings feature). So, I'm super psyched to find select styles on sale at more than half off. The coral felt stocking, normally $135 is now just $65. There's four more stockings that are just $65, but act quickly because the stock is limited and the season is upon us. Hable Construction's handmade felt stockings are put together by a women's cooperate in Hungary and use traditional applique techniques.

Choose a polar bear, Christmas tree, penguin or reindeer. Designed with embroidery and felt appliqués and available in kids’ sizes.

Find the Holiday Rollneck Sweaters at Garnet Hill for $78.

Big Deal: PB Lullaby Rocker on Sale

elizabeth leach — Wed, 30 Jul 2008 14:30:00 GMT

We've written about the Pottery Barn Lullaby Rocker in the past and now some of the fabric choices are on sale. This rocking chair is very comfortable and the slipcover is machine washable. There are many rockers on the market that look cool but comfort is more important when you're feeding your infant at three in the morning. But you don't have to buy one of those eye-soars at the baby store. This rocking chair gives you both comfort and style. Fabric choices on sale include:

red flowers or turquoise basketweave - $850 (was $949)

black stripes - $999 (was $1149)

chocolate crosscheck or navy crosscheck (photo above) - $1499 (was $1749)

orange checker - $1499 (was $1749)

Nursery Rockers that Rock

At last. A comfortable nursery glider that is also attractive. (Dare I say “cute”? But not too cute.) Sure, there are plenty of cool, sleek modern gliders and rockers but try curling up on one of those at three in the morning to nurse your newborn. Pottery Barn Kids is now offering gliders, rockers and ottomans slip-covered in Hable Construction fabric. Choose from kelly green or espresso beads, black and white boxes (think Jonathan Adler), pink poppies, brown with pink dots and many others. With Hable’s clean graphics these chairs aren’t in danger of looking too “shabby chic” and if baby spits up… no worries because the slipcovers are removable. These rockers will complement your nursery’s fab design without compromising comfort. (And should I remind you again about the three in the morning part?)

Hot for Cots

Lisa Mulcahy — Mon, 07 Apr 2008 13:10:00 GMT

Since the invention of the ubiquitous Aero Bed I feel like old-fashioned cots have fallen out of favor. But really they are quite handy for kid sleepovers, camping or simply a night on the lawn looking at the stars. Until I saw this one, I didn’t think there was such a thing as a modern looking cot.

Most cots are reminiscent of something you would find at a second-hand army navy store next to the hunting knives and canteens or, on a more mainstream level, the camping aisle at Wal-Mart. Either way, not appealing. This lily pad cot, $195, from Hable Construction just might change the “cot” image for good. I can see the branding campaign now, “Dump Your (Air) Pump, Cots are Cool.”

5 Days of Stockings: Warm-Weather Trio from Hable Construction

Erin Behan — Thu, 06 Dec 2007 15:00:00 GMT

As much as those of us who live in the Northeast hate to admit it, there are some people whose Christmas involves sunshine and shorts. Well, do I have the stocking(s) for you. Hable Construction has three sea-themed stockings--a coral ($135), a mermaid ($135) and an emerald sea horse ($96)--that capture the holiday spirit without the use of snow or Santa (because who has a chimney in Florida?). To soften the monetary blow, know that part of the sale price supports the women's cooperative in Hungary that produces the fun, wool felt stockings.
