Meet Ross Sveback… If you don’t already know his name I think you will soon. He sent me a note not long ago about his new line of dishware & I was instantly hooked to his website ~ Kon-Tent.com ~ which is full of ideas about how to maximize your lifestyle ~ from tips on buying linens, to DELICIOUS recipes, to his own line of products, Ross has a completely interesting perspective on lifestyle that this world needs!!
So first is Ross’ line of dinnerware which is really wonderful… there are three patterns ~ Faux Bois, Danish Fern and also Tweed. All three feature a rich chocolate brown & bright white palette which gives you the opportunity to mix and match the patterns creating your own unique tabletop. You can go to his website and purchase the dinnerware directly from Ross ~ he is also working directly with retailers who are interested in selling his merchandise.
Ross also just released a new line of jewelry inspired by TRAVEL and the open road… it’s a perfect reminder of those childhood vacations with Mom & Dad in the back of the station wagon, and even better reminder to make sure you also get your kiddos out onto the blacktop!!
In addition to all of his other enterprises Ross teaches cooking, and posts recipes that look truly DIVINE!! Check out his Summer Corn Salad ~ he has instantly solved your dilemma about what to take to this weekend’s BBQ ~ enjoy!!
