Designers Tea at Rumba, Santa Monica


I want to share with you some wonderful photos of the Designers Tea that took place on Sunday at Rumba in Santa Monica, CA. First off, Rumba is an awesome store filled with art, home accessories, and refurbished vintage pieces. Everything old is new again with wonderful fabrics and finishes! You can read an interview with Kimba, owner of Rumba, from March on Apartment Therapy LA.


Second, featured at the Tea where Henry Road, Moye Thompson and Susan Fama. I originally was introduced to Henry Road in April on decor8. The bold patterns and colors are so fun for your table, couch or anywhere you need a sprinkling of color! I love the idea shown here of hanging a tablecloth as wall art.


Make sure you check out the store and each designer. They are all small businesses, run by very talented women who do it all themselves! They deserve our support!
