Last week, my friend Jeni came to visit from California and I took her to some of my favorite places in Houston that I knew she’d love. Among them, was Boxwood Interiors, a charming store featuring an amazing selection of pillows, furniture, lighting, decorative accessories, and paints and wallcoverings by Farrow and Ball. I’ll let you in on a little secret, we sourced a few items from Boxwoods for a High Gloss photo shoot that we can’t wait to share with you! But more on that later. First, I’d like to share a visual tour of this amazing shop. Boxwood recently underwent a major makeover. The store nearly doubled in size and they added a ton of fabulous new vignettes, brightened the space, and added some show-stopping details.
{It was quite appropriate that we visited Boxwood on the same day that we heard Miles Redd speak. This amazing octagonal partition is painted in Miles’ favorite color, Hague Blue in Full Gloss finish by Farrow and Ball. It is such a gorgeous shade and this image doesn’t even begin to do the amazing partition justice.}
{Boxwood mixes styles so well. There are plenty of things that appeal to the French and Belgian loving set as well as a great assortment of pieces that appeal to those who love a more modern dose of color.}
{Pillows, Glorious Pillows!}
{So Many Lovely Details}
{I love the mercury glass lamp, subdued color palette, and Donghia suzani pillows in this vignette.}
{How gorgeous is that mirror?}
{I love the framed abstract paintings here. Sally Wheat has some similar ones in her home. Sally, if you’re reading this, what is the artist’s name?}
{This console is bananas! The photo doesn’t even begin to do it justice. It is covered in what looked and felt like seagrass and studded with nailheads.}
{I loved the gilded wheat sheaf table and these neat stools.}
{These Kobo candles smell so nice and feature such lovely packaging.}
{Gorgeous Mercury Glass Lamps atop a Beautiful Console Table}
{There is literally eye candy in every corner of this store. I am crazy about this fabulous end table with Greek key detail.}
{A Pretty Table Setting and Chandelier in front of Gorgeous, Hand-Painted Wallpaper by Farrow and Ball.}
{I love the simple lines of this furniture. It would be great in an outdoor area.}
{Another Beautiful Vignette}
{More Mercury Glass Lamps – Love!}
{A Fabulous Assortment of Farrow and Ball}
{A Nod to the 1950s via a Wheat Sheaf Table and Cute Poodle Lamp}
{Yet another lamp I was dying over! I wasn’t kidding when I said I was a total lamp tramp!}
{I wish I’d gotten a better picture of their gorgeous cash wrap /check-out counter. You can see it up close in the previous picture. It features carrera marble and antiqued mirrors. I doubt there is a prettier one in existence. This celadon and blue lamp totally reminds me of our High Gloss editor, Kyle!
{So, the gorgeous Hague Blue octagonal partition from the beginning of this post separates the retail part of the space from the offices in the back. Boxwood also provides interior design services.}
Thank you, Mimi and Jenna for being such gracious hostesses and treating us like old friends during our visit!
