Best of the West
Desert Chic
Rattlesnakes and tumbleweeds aren't your typical home-decor references, but Coral & Tusk's designer Stephanie Housley pulls it off with panache. For her latest textile collection, the designer (who splits her time between Brooklyn, New York and Bondurant, Wyoming) created embroidered linen goods with fanciful depictions of desert natives - flowering agaves, blooming barrel cactus, and curious armadillos that cavort across cocktail napkins, tea towels and pillows. Housley immersed herself in the study of the Southwest flora and fauna to produce the hand-drawn illustrations that serve as the basis for the intricately stitched designs.
