Bedding company House Inc. has branched out with decorative pillows and a home collection of candles, laundry detergent and more. Ruched velvet pillows round out with texture and a European-inspired vintage feel. "I feel like people are going to change their bed like they change their clothes in the future," said owner and designer Annette Tatum. "If your duvet is the skirt, you want a different top to go with it." The new designs allow consumers to dress and accessorize the bed with coordinating pieces. In January, House Inc. will extend the line with velvet throws and duvets, satin flanged pillows, and synthetic rabbit and satin offerings. Additionally,Tatum created light, fresh fragrances for home (she's sensitive to scents) like Toile, Pool and Fleur that are subtle enough to spritz the house every day. Retail prices range from $62 to $88 for pillows; $7 to $26 for the home collection. eLink 546

Creating luxury items for living and entertaining is the credo of new home vendor Joseph Thomas. True, the company's first collection of candles and fragranced botanicals, scored a "smash success" with its chocolate suede boxed candles and organic arrangements, according to owner Craig Stephenson. Complex, perfume-based scents like Willow, Thistle & Moss, Lychee Nut and Jacaranda are among the original nine offerings that layer in any (or all) combinations. Snow, a mix of peppermint and cucumber, debuts in January as the final fragrance. "I eliminated food scents from the line," Stephenson said. "If you want your house to smell like pie, bake a pie." Complementing the decidedly distinctive fragrances, the masculine, luxe look of the packaging has drawn both male and female shoppers. Up next, Joseph Thomas plans to roll out bath and entertaining collections ($40 to $50, candles; $60 to $70, botanicals). eLink 544
