Candles in Antique Places - Topanga Candles

 

New to Croft House, Topanga Candles!  An awesome idea that has been wonderfully executed,  Topanga Candles are antique containers filled with wonderful smelling candles.  The containers range from upsidedown-cake tins(shown above) to measuring cups to old sewing machine boxes.  Reclaimed Candles!!  The pieces make for great decor even after the candle burns out, and they can certainly be filled and used again.  Each piece is one of a kind so come down to 326 La Brea to check them out, obviously the images don't do any justice to their fantastic scents!

These two are an old tea cup and measuring cup.  These smell great and go for $30 each. Great candles for those small nooks in the kitchen and dining room. 

This two wick candle is in a Mellomints tin, a type of mint manufactured by the Brandle and Smith Company out of Philadelphia in the 1920's and 30's.  Only $35!

These candles are a great change of pace from your standard class jar, and are still great decor even after they burnout.  Come into Croft House to see the others we have in stock and keep an eye out for more!

5 Great Rugs under $500

Why We Love It: Indoor/Outdoor, Knotted Acrylic - Great for high traffic areas, or pets!

 Why We Love It: It might look like a lot of pattern from this angle, but when horizontal on a floor, this rug has a very classy 40's style to it.  Very reminiscent of checker board entry tile.

 Why We Love It:  The Feel.  This rug is a combination of wool and silk, giving it a multi-textural look, and has a soft 'lets sit and do a puzzle' feel.

 Why We Love It: Its hard to find good layered rugs at an affordable price.  This rug is straight park avenue, with a wal-mart price tag.

Why We Love It: These rich colors add character and intelligence to any space.  Just try to find such a distinguished rug under $500 - go on, we dare you!!

These are just a handful of rugs that we carry.  Come on in and flip through our iPad to check out the full line.  There is a rug for every size, budget, and taste!

Introducing: The Chambers Desk

The Chambers Desk deviates a bit from the Croft House norm.  Reclaimed wood is put on hold and the powder-coated white legs along with glass top create an airy piece than the others in the showroom.  But airy isn't the only way to go with this one.  The legs can be powder-coated any color, neon green, dark purple, VALENTINES DAY RED! Oh  yes.  The standard dimensions of the piece(always customizable!) are 60"Lx36"Dx29"H and it's affordably priced at $850.  Come check it out!!

Bethany Nauert - Hanging Art Above the Bed

Check out this great article on hanging artwork above the bed by Apartment Therapy's, and a Croft House favorite, Bethany Nauert!   Along with a wonderful shout out to the Railcar Platform Bed(which is still on sale!), Bethany has written a great piece on different techniques of framing your bedroom.  She calls the bedroom "the most intimate part of the house regardless if you live alone or with someone."  Couldn't agree with her more!

Personally, I like to place giant motorcycle crash prints above my bed.  Do I ride a motorcycle? No.  Do I crash my bike? Almost daily.
