This reminds me of the Candle with matchbox (which, btw, I can’t find for sale online anymore), in that it conveniently integrates the match box into the design of the candleholder. No more searching for random matchbooks in the kitchen drawer every time you want a little candlelight.
Design: Kristina Stark Design
One box of matches is included in the price.
Length: 6 cm, Width: 4 cm, Height: 2 cm, $17.00

Drippy wax might be annoying to some, but this candle creates an interesting piece as it melts.
Unlike a typical candle, this column candle can simply be placed as an interior decor with its detailed and antique look. Even after usage, the candle will only burn 1/3 of the top, creating an original piece as wax will melt over to drip down the column base.

A while ago we had an email from a reader asking about modern menorahs. This one fits the bill quite nicely, as well as some others from the same shop.
Arrange the pieces in a circle, a line, or form whatever shapes you desire each night. The graded well holds either Hanukkah candles or standard Shabbat candles. During the year, restack your pieces to form candlesticks for use on Shabbat . Pieces come packaged in a velvet pouch for travel or storage. Made in Israel.

Yes, the holiday season and its wares has now officially flooded the retail marketplace. The upside to this barrage of tinsel, ornaments, and singing Santas (some put out in October, for goodness sake) is that Marcel Wanders has done a few festive design things for Target, and considering that they are quite affordable, it’s easy to catch the holiday bug. Check out the some of the collection here. (Some items aren’t yet available, but look promising: a Jingle Bell Wreath, some Decorative Stockings, etc… will try to post those once they are available to purchase.)
Titled Marcel Wanders for Target, the new exclusive tabletop and home decor limited-edition collection portrays the designer’s whimsical style on the more than 40 decorative pieces, such as dinnerware, ceramic vases, pillar candles, stockings, ornaments and wrapping paper. Prices will range from $2.99 for place card holders to $39.99 for a tree skirt. – Home Textiles Today
Martini Shaker (Material: Plastic), $14.99, Buy it here.
