New Arrivals...Clairebella & Tourance Robes


The holiday season is in full swing! Now is the perfect time to introduce some of our new products from Clairebella and Tourance.

Entertain your family and friends with these beautiful personalized trays that are perfect for any occasion. Clairebella’s large acrylic trays come in a variety of stylish patterns and colors, and each come with a laminated insert for easy cleaning. What I love the most is that you can select the font, pattern and colors to match your taste. So whether you’re organizing your desk, or serving food to your guests, these trays are sure to make a vibrant statement with an added personal touch. Aren't they just adorable?


Once you choose your colors and pattern, customize it some more with your name or monogram! 



We’re also pleased to introduce Clairebella’s personalized Holiday inspired cutting boards. Time to throw away those boring old wooden cutting board and spice up your kitchen with these festive beauties.




Be sure to check out even more items, like this Cookies for Santa plate, from Clairebella here.



With the winter months among us, you’ll want to cozy up with one of the new Tourance Lux Faux Rabbit Fur Robes, shown here in Blush (center), Ivory (left), and Chocolate (right). 




These luxurious robes are made to keep you warm with the incredibly soft micro fiber polyester. Robes have never looked so gorgeous!

Thanksgiving is next week, so keep your eyes peeled for gorgeous decoration ideas, healthy recipes and holiday gift ideas from our store.
BUT! Since I can't wait for the holiday, I'll leave you with a Thanksgiving inspired recipe to test out this weekend! I hope this vegan friendly dish is tasty. If you try it out, please share your experience with us in the comments below. We would love to hear how it turns out.


This versatile stuffing is good on its own or stuffed into winter squashes, or green or red bell peppers.  
Serves: 6 to 8
  • 6 cups firmly packed diced whole grain sourdough bread
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 cups chopped red onion
  • 3 scallions, minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 teaspoon each: dried thyme and rosemary
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt, more or less to taste
  • 1/4 cup toasted pine nuts
  • 1/2 cup dark raisins
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 1 cup apple or orange juice, or as neededPlace the diced bread on a baking sheet. Bake 10 to 12 minutes, or until dry and lightly browned.
Heat the oil in a large skillet. Add the onion and sauté over medium heat until golden.

Combine the bread cubes with the onion in a mixing bowl. Add all the remaining ingredients except the apple juice and toss together. Sprinkle the juice in slowly, stirring, to moisten the ingredients evenly.

Transfer the mixture to an oiled shallow 1 1/2-quart baking pan. Bake 25 to 30 minutes, or until browned and still slightly moist.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees.


Have a great weekend everyone!

Things We Are Loving Right Now...


Fall: marvelously rich and decadent, yet cozy and comforting.

That time of year where we prepare to spend a bit more time indoors and enjoy the comforts of home as we get ready for the upcoming holiday season. Preparing for gatherings with family and friends during this impending, busiest of seasons means paying a bit more attention to those little details. We've spent some time assembling a divine array of  products you can be proud to display in your home. Stop in to see all that's new at Lavender Fields for Fall. You'll find everything from home decor items like bedding, candles, furniture gifts, homekeeping and more.

Bring some of Autumn's breathtaking color palate into your home with these beautiful pieces. And don't forget  the candles. Nothing makes a house feel more like a home than the infusion of sumptuously scents of the season...and maybe some homemade pumpkin chocolate chip muffins.

We're just crazy about this Adagio bedding set from Bella Notte. It's divine hues of gold, deep red, ocean blue, navy and sage compliments so many styles. As with all of the products Lavender Fields offers, you can count on exceptional quality.
