Cool, Stackable Bowls

Cool, Stackable Bowls

In this new old house, the kitchen is giant. Giant. But it really hasn’t been update since the 60s, and it has approximately 60 inches of cabinet space for dishes. No one knows why.
Also, related, I have a thing for coffee mugs and bowls that sorta resemble coffee mugs. I like them. I like to [...]

Soap Rings from Nancy Wu

Soap Rings from Nancy Wu

While I’m thinking about re-doing the bathroom in a super plain way, I’m looking for fun, different things to jazz things up.
These soap rings from Nancy Wu Design are high on the list.

Paper.li

Paper.li

I think this is super cool. Definitely a prettier way to read your news from Twitter. Paper.li makes a personal newspaper just for you.

Vintage New York Subway Signs

Vintage New York Subway Signs

Clockwise from the top: Gabrielle Rocha, Calvin Klein, Shelli Segal, RSVP Raina, Trina Turk, Silhouettes.

The Postmarks

The Postmarks

I don’t even want to admit how long I searched the interwebs for this band after seeing them on Yo Gabba Gabba. And, yes, that last sentence would sound pretty lame, if Yo Gabba Gabba wasn’t so ridiculously awesome.
Hooray for The Postmarks!
You can download their album here.
(I still think my favorite might be the one [...]

You tell ‘em, Doormat.

You tell ‘em, Doormat.

How much do I love this doormat from Perpetual Kid?
I usually don’t like mouthy home accessories, but I have to give this one a little more respect. Well done.
