Martha Stewart Gets Busy... Again

Filed under: Shopping, Your Home, Gardening, Tools, Design, etc, News & Trends, Furniture

Martha Stewart's just launched new home and gardening lines -- plus she's found a crafty way to make going on vacation even more fun.

Can't get enough Martha? Neither can we. Nor, it seems, can the rest of the world. In addition to overseeing exclusive collections for Macy's, EK Success, 1-800-Flowers.com, and Bernhardt (oh, and running a magazine empire, plus hosting a daily TV show) the country's most popular multi-tasker has branched out into new territory once again. Here's what Martha's been up to lately:

The big news: Martha has teamed up with Home Decorators Collection for two ranges of bedroom, dining room, and office furniture, inspired by classic Swedish design. The whitewashed Ingrid Collection (above) is distinctly feminine, with curved lines, delicate wood turnings, and antiqued hardware.

We like how feminine Ingrid contrasts and complements the ebony-hued Larsson Collection (top photo and immediately above), which has a clean, almost Shaker-like simplicity. Both lines include a bed, desk, console table, bookcase, mirror and dresser -- making it easy to Martha-fy practically every room in the house!

The Home Depot's gotten in on the action, too. While they have already begun offering Martha-branded paint, rugs, patio furniture and accessories, the home center's website has expanded its collection to include garden tools. Ergonomically designed, featuring cushioned handles in Martha's signature robin's egg blue, the 12-piece collection contains everything you'll need to flex your green thumb, including bypass pruners, a trowel and even a small weeder.

Now that you've given your home and garden that special Martha touch, what's a girl to do? Why not take a little trip -- specifically to a Beaches Resort, where you can lounge around the newMartha Stewart Crafts Studio. Developed specifically for Beaches, this series of classes teaches glittering, stenciling and scrapbooking, among other techniques. When Martha previewed some of the Beaches crafts last week on her show, it was revealed that the resulting handmade souvenirs are distinctly better than anything sold on the boardwalk.

If that's not enough for you, we hear Martha's also going to the dogs. She's got a new line for PetSmart hitting stores soon! And for all you crafters, a fresh set of spring paper punches is on its way.
