The classic Empire style lampshade comes in two sizes, $100 and $160.
The fan-shaped seaweed lampshades are available in small ($125), medium ($175) and large ($200).
Suzanne Duin's Maison Maison boutique has always been a place to shop for unusual household items and personal items such as jewelry or small handbags. Duin is also known for her one-of-a-kind lampshades, and her latest collection uses natural materials-such as seaweed, water hyacinth and rattan.
The new lampshade is shaped like a fan or a modified drum in the classic empire style, with a bottom width ranging from 5 inches to 16 inches. Prices for small bells range from $50 to $200 for a large lampshade with fan-shaped edges.
Duin’s new products are made by members of a women’s cooperative in Vietnam and include darker-looking colors and other colors with a stucco appearance. Inspired by Benjamin Moore's "Aegean Blue-Green" back then, she will also launch some blue-greens.
Looking forward to her natural fiber collections will continue to grow. Duin has designed a bathroom tissue box containing a box of facial tissues and two rolls of toilet paper, and hopes to create a Louis Phillipe-style woven frame that can be used as a mirror.
It can be purchased at Maison Maison, Matt Camron Cottages, 3014 Earl; or Courtney Barton, 603 N. Washington in Round Top.

While paying respect at the monument outside NRG Park, some attendees asked more questions about the chaotic scene even 48 hours ago.
