Even if you don’t have the urge to snap this up and put it on display in your living room, surely you can find appreciation for the delightful design somewhere in your heart/head.

“Every book tells its own story. Every book has its own weight. By playing with balance, the See-Saw bookshelf visualizes the breadth of our home libraries.”

Walnut wood with powder coated steel parts.

What a great rocker for a baby. Available in wood and soon also available in plexi.

Rocks safely for birth to 20 lbs.

These have an interesting textural look about them, and, considering their size, would certainly add a nice patterned lighting effect.

“Made from re-purposed fishing line woven with vines around a strong metal armature, these super-sized spheres capture the light, not the fish. Each includes a 12′ cord set with a plug end.”

18″ dia.

Sure, there are tons of bottle openers out there, but this one also tackles screw-caps, which might bump it up on the list.

“this stainless steel opener from piet hein shows off the “super-ellipse” design in a new way. this attractive accessory makes opening either pop-tops or screw-caps a breeze. stylish, functional, and handy, all in one!”

If you’ve ever been to a party (or supermarket) where there was a wine carrier bag thing, chances are it was horrible. I’ve seen some that have been tasseled, glue gunned and glittered; others with really disturbing miscellaneous adornment attached to a otherwise simple bag. No harm done if you think those kinds of things are acceptable, but I encourage you to consider this particular one for its nice simple design and overall pleasing color. It will protect bottles just as nicely and you run less of a risk of offending someone.

“The latest in a series from JoshJakus, this wine carrier is a single piece of wool felt with an optimally-placed hole, stitched at the top and sides. Once a bottle of wine is inserted, the hole becomes the bag’s handle.”

materials:
100% industrial wool felt, nylon stitching. (Industrial felt is made from approximately 85% factory excess wool and 15% mixed fibers.)

16.25″ long x 6.5″ wide, when flat

Chic, simple platforms for photos and accessories. Wood construction. Mounting hardware included. Bamboo veneer.

4.5″d x 1.5″h.

If you get frustrated by the minimal amount of paper/drawings/menus that your current fridge magnet holds, then this would completely solve your problem.

“This little chap is made from a super-strong magnet coated in non-scratch plastic to protect your fridge and your photos. But what really makes the Endo brilliant is that is in effect a magnetic hinge – to use, you just press the top and the magnet frees up whatever it is holding, release and it and it grips again…all without any springs or moving parts. Combining neodymium, silicone and steel, the Endo clip is great looking, holds up to 20 pages or 1 lb and can be thrown in the dishwasher for cleaning.”

Each magnet is 2″ x 1″, pack of 3.

Belts made into a rug, huh? Sure enough, it does seem to take the look of a worn wooden floor and it would definitely be a unique addition to your home.

“This handsome, handmade floor mat is made of artfully assembled vintage leather belts that have been rescued on their way from waist to waste. Its rich tones, textures, and tread-friendly patina evoke the look of a wonderfully worn wood floor, albeit with a decidedly warmer under-foot feel. Each Vintage Belt Floor Mat is a one-of-a-kind creation, and as such, colors and characteristics will vary slightly from those pictured.”

27.5″ in diameter

Yet another interesting option for outdoor furnishings…and, surprisingly, the stripes enhance rather than detract from the overall design (my opinion of course).

“created by renowned designer david rockwell this series is made of woven nylon fiber making it ideal for either indoor or outdoor use.”

There’s something nice about this. You can write someone a postcard and then they can write on the other side and send it back to you. Much more personal than email.

This lamp seems to be a slight variation on the ubiquitous globe light. Might be just enough detail to add a little more ‘oomph’ to your living or sleeping area.
