not your mother's accent wall

remember this brad ford-designed screened porch at the hampton designer showhouse? one of the things i loved about it (and that everyone else who trekked out to watermill loved too) was the strung porcelain cones that covered one of the walls.

so i think it was the memory of that screened porch that made west elm's hanging wood strands jump out at me. while i previously might have liked them but wondered what i'd do with them, now i know. i'd hang many of them all along a wall and enjoy the view.
