Omigosh you guys, British decorative arts history is now available at Target! Earlier this week a couple of us grad students ran over there at lunchtime to geek out over the Liberty of London line. Arthur Liberty's department store attracted members of the Pre-Raphaelite movement, and later formed partnerships with Art Nouveau artists. The early store was especially known for its printed fabrics . When I was in London I visited the store near Oxford Circus, a fabulous 1924 Tudor revival building. Sadly, I could not afford the luxury accessories inside.
But I could afford the $5 pink floral coffee mug I bought on Thursday! Its bright colors make me smile and look forward to spring.
