You know designers are running out of ideas when they start creating products derived from a sleeping aid icon. I'm sorry, but West Elm must REALLY be desperate if they are selling products with green butterflies on them. Up until the Lunesta ads came out, I'm sure that it was not in most Americans' vernacular that there are green butterflies. Yellow, blue, orange, maybe, but certainly not green. Evoking the Lunesta lunar moth, which was one of the most recognized icons in 2006, West Elm is selling green butterfly wall art and dipping dishes. It's even in the same subtle pale green. What's next? Green butterfly curtains and bed spread? The Lunesta folks would be VERY happy. Metal Butterfly, $19 for a single, $29 for the triple. Butterfly Dish, set of four for $24.
