My hat goes off to whoever does the photo styling for the Pottery Barn catalogs. While other catalogs are fated for the recycle bin almost before they're through my door, P.B.s tend to stick around my office long after the items in them are sold out--simply because they're chock full of creative ideas. This photo, which is a detail of a larger photo that appeared on page 15 of the November 2008 catalog, includes a great example (I added the arrow and text). I'm always a sucker for old black and white photographs, and displaying them in large apothecary jars gives them a sculptural quality. Love it!
