My Spot Bauhaus Memento Display

My Spot Bauhaus Memento Display
Hey, how about a string, a weight, and some anchors to hold up your important photos and notes? That sounds dreadfully dull, but it's not, I promise. My Spot is just a very, very minimal approach to a pin board. Gravity keeps the string taut, allowing the anchors to hold your postcards, calendar pages, and notes within reach and perfectly displayed on a simple, horizontal line.

Hafod Grange Teasel Paperweight

Hafod Grange Teasel Paperweight
A spiny head of a hand-picked teasel doesn't sound pretty, but up close it's a beauty to behold. Dipsacus fullonum is the plant's proper name, by the way, and the prickly bracts are friendlier to inspect and admire when enclosed safely within polyester resin. It may be an excellent gift for anyone who appreciates botanical oddities, but I'd say you could justify purchasing one for yourself, as it is a...Read more

Scholten & Baijings Grid Pillows

Scholten & Baijings Grid Pillows
Spring has sprung, so you might as well clean out the cobwebs and bring in a little color in the form of a Scholten & Baijings Pillow or two. With bright colors and characteristic patterned grids, any one of them will inject a little pizzazz into a tired room. Now, on to the trouble of deciding which ones to get (the blue and pink ones are my favorite). Bright Cube...Read more

Do you remember the link to Folly Soaps back in January?

Acacia Honey Dipper

Acacia Honey Dipper
Hmm, perhaps we all need to upgrade our honey dippers- if we even have one to begin with, that is. The hexagonal shape of a honeycomb attached to a polished stainless steel handle allows honey to drizzle easily into your tea or toast. Designer Miriam Mirri brought this clever idea into existence, and we might just have to say it's the coolest honey-drizzling tool to ever cross our computer screens....Read more

Sound Grenade by ROBOCOPP

Sound Grenade by ROBOCOPP
You can either never leave your house, throw caution to the wind, or prepare yourself with a personal safety device. All sorts of scary situations exist, in the city (muggers) and deep in the great outdoors (bears!). The Sound Grenade by ROBOCOPP works just as you'd expect: pull the pin and you'll set off a 120-decibel siren that scares off impending danger. Replace the pin, and the sound turns off....Read more

Same Same But Different Glasses

Same Same But Different Glasses
These three glasses are shaped differently yet each hold the same amount of liquid, hence their name. The familial likeness combined with the slight shape variation would add interest and movement to a table top, and, best of all, they're stackable, so they'll take up less space than normal glasses. Designed by Norway Says for Muuto. Each glass holds approximately 10oz (300ml). Made in Thailand. One set includes 3 glasses....Read more

Holmes Sconce

Holmes Sconce
It doesn't take much deductive reasoning to select this Holmes Sconce from Schoolhouse Electric as one of the better options in the marketplace. It might be inspired by the classic candle sconce in the days before electricity, but the minimalist lines in its steel backplate marks it firmly in the present. Make it your own by choosing a specialty bulb, and know that the smaller size would fit almost anywhere...Read more

Concrete Desk Set
One thing is for sure, these desk accessories aren't going anywhere. They'll not be tipped over or jostled easily, as they're made of hefty concrete with subtle, curved edges. We first posted this collection back in 2011, so you know they'll not be lumped in with those 'trendy' sorts of office supplies. All pieces are hand-cast from solid concrete.
