For several reasons I really love lucite. Most importantly it is clear and shiny and easy to clean. The only problem is that it is often times expensive. So I have found that little bits and pieces of clear acrylic does the trick. If you have been over to my details page, you have seen that I am obsessed with
The Container Store. They have such an amazing array of acrylic items for organizing.
Here are some fun examples I have seen that do a great job of mixing traditional decor with a more modern aesthetic.
I also love City Southern's post "Lovely Lucite"! So fun. :)
