Room & Board‘s online clearance sale includes discounts of 30% to 50% on discontinued furniture and accessories. Some great deals that caught my eye: a Danish modern style Jasper Left-Armed Corner sofa, discounted from $1,650 to $999.99; a sweet (but not too sweet) Lulu bumper, skirt and fitted crib sheet in lilac and leaf, reduced from $495 to $229.99; and a concrete-topped Parsons cocktail table, reduced from $1,149 to $599.99.

This colorful, 6-foot-wide umbrella in charcoal and blue (slashed from $179 to $99.99) could make one feel like summer could go on indefinitely. This is California. Buy two.
