Some of my favorite things: CB2 edition

cb2

I just got the new CB2 catalog in the mail & loved so many things, I decided to make a post out of it! Hopefully by posting some of my favorite items, I can inspire some of you. And, for those that have never heard of CB2, welcome to the wonderful world of both class & fun! Without further ado, here are my picks for must-haves:

Comic appetizer plates
Comic appetizer plates

$1.95 ea.

How amazing are these little plates?? The comic appetizer plates definitely speak to the comic book fan in all of us and are perfect for summer cookouts in the patio. Plus, you can’t beat the price – grab them now while they are still on sale! I know I will be.

Bash party tub
Bash party tub

$24.95

We have a lot of parties at our place. With a lot of beer. So this galvanized metal tub would be perfect for us!!! Plus it has the looks to make it fashionable when it’s not in use. Yes please!

Formosa tray
Formosa tray

$49.95

This tray is amazingly awesome. If you are into the whole mod revolution like we are, it’ll most likely make you drool. Perfect for those martini glasses & comic appetizer plates! I would love to get one in white to coordinate with our current patio layout. I’m seriously considering adding some astroturf as well to complete the kitschy vibe!

G-nome
G-nome

$24.95

I love gnomes. The Travelocity gnome, David the gnome and even the Amelie gnome. Give me some gnomes and I’ll be happy. This one is no exception! How cute would this look in our patio?? And I especially love that instead of being colorful, it is a sleek white gloss making it both cute and stylish. Hooray for gnomes of the garden variety!

Astro balls
Astro balls

$3.95-4.95 ea.

I can’t help myself. I love round hairy things as decoration. Think what you may. Again, these Astro balls are no exception to that rule! I would love to sprinkle them around our patio just for fun. One can never have too much green in my honest opinion!

    Well in that case I saw vinyl record coasters at Target that I loved, and thought you might love as well. 🙂 I heart you too. <3

    If you know of anyone or anywhere that has these plates – PLEASE let me know. I am doing a comic book/superhero party for my 4yr old and this would rock!!!

    Thanks! – Jenna
