It reminds me of the great see-all clutch that is out right now, except this is more of a showcase of beautiful things... I want to put silver painted sticks in it for Christmas, books for Fall maybe, and fill it with bouquets for Spring and Summer... the possibilities are endless. <br /><br />Love this post!<br /><br />xoSarah Klassenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10929770496186549808noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871878718824331017.post-4735486108607947032010-07-20T12:38:56.622-05:002010-07-20T12:38:56.622-05:00I really need to get something lucite in my apartm...I really need to get something lucite in my apartment asap, I just love it!LindsBhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00548424318705008557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871878718824331017.post-23323716522184643192010-07-20T11:42:45.592-05:002010-07-20T11:42:45.592-05:00truly fabulous examples, you're right about co...truly fabulous examples, you're right about contrast.

B...Awesome lead with the shoes! You are SO right :)<br />But when it comes to design, I can't get enough lucite. Love it.

I had the McGuire chair painted silver and have the 2 chairs on either side of a 1940's side board, accessorized with crystal candlesticks. This subtle, yet sparkly ensemble sits nicely in an alcove behind my sofa. Love a little lucite in an otherwise classic interior. Adds a little bit of whimsy, without being over the top!!Luxurious Lifehttp://luxuriouslife-mary.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871878718824331017.post-21243170911254220682010-07-19T17:43:52.873-05:002010-07-19T17:43:52.873-05:00Lucite works in so many interiors as shown by thes...Lucite works in so many interiors as shown by these fantastic images you collected.
