My Own Cloverdale

Thursday, January 13th, 2011

I love the casual elegance of Kate Spade’s Cloverdale Rose Bowl, pictured above in the bedroom of Lonny’s founder, Michelle Adams. Unfortunately, the gold polka dotted beauty is no longer available (please bring it back Kate Spade!) so a few months back I decided to improvise and create my own for our Thanksgiving table. My amateur version was incredibly easy to create with some gold paint and a little patience. Better yet, the most expensive part was the $3 I spent on the vase which was found at HomeGoods. So there you have it, my very own Cloverdale to hold me over until (fingers crossed) Kate Spade re-introduces it.

    That looks wonderful! I LOVE the Cloverdale vase- yours looks lovely!

    Yours is just as beautiful; I could barely tell the difference! I hope I could pull this off, because I’m now obsessed with the Cloverdale Rose bowl.

  10. Oh, I could just kick myself for not getting the gold dot one back when it was available. I have two huge ones w/ clear dots (they actually don’t have the huge ones any more either…the “large” now was originally the medium). So I thought it would be silly to get a third. But I regret that decision every time I see it. I love your version – how clever! I think you should name it your Cleverdale rose bowl. xo

      Ooh at least you have two clear ones! I’m kicking myself for not stocking up on any.. Maybe if enough people comment they’ll bring it back? Wishful thinking… xo
