In The Wood

Wow, this shop just takes my breath away!
Inspired by the forest, and made with things from the forest like antlers (which fall out naturally of the pretty creatures every year), In The Woods transforms materials into pieces of functional art.
Unless you have a tree in the middle of your house (isn’t that sooo cool?), this [...]

At Uncommon, you’ll find everything you need to retrofy (? lol) your home: clocks, mirrors, furniture, art and objects, in all your favorite greens and yellows and blues!

Add-a-Plant

How great are these block plant houses from Erde Designs?
Made from all kinds of different woods like oak, cedar and even some reclaimed, they are perfect for little greens like cacti, succulents, herbs… even candles (but not at the same time as plants! Ouch! lol).

Curvaceous

I think I can say now that I collect handmade mugs, since they take enough space in my cupboards to say it’s a collection.
Wouldn’t these cuties by Jennifer Fisher Designs be a wonderful addition? If you like cuddling up on the couch with the warmth of that morning coffee cup in your hands, these are [...]

I’ve found some fabulous vessels recently, have to share them!!
Vessels can save our spaces… Make your room pretty when actually you can just put what’s lying around the house in them (balls of yarn, branches, rocks, jewels, fruit!). Pratical & pretty :)

Unemployed Designer

In these hard economic times, it isn’t really a shock to find a shop called Unemployed Designer! It’s a creative way to put a positive spin on the situation!
“Most everyone else just laughs out loud when I tell them the name of my new shop. Let’s face it, when life hands you lemons, you make [...]

Jill Rosenwald

If you like bold shapes and mod designs, you have to check out Jill Rosenwald’s work! Add some mod style to your decor smoothly with some light colors and pastels.
The only sad thing is that if you are outside the US, Jill’s work will not reach you… And that’s enough to cry our eyes out! [...]

Nest

Have you visited Nest recently?
I had blogged about Nest a while back in French, but it’s such a wonderful site with great goals, can’t pass up blogging about it again!
“Nest is a nonprofit organization dedicated to changing the lives of women in developing countries. The mission of Nest is to support women [...]

Treat

Made out of recycled lampshades and yarn, these bowls from Camilla Halvorsen, called Treat, are exactly that: a treat for the eyes!
The yarn used is called Mirasol Yarn, and each ball purchase helps supports the Mirasol Project. Yep, you can make your home look good AND help out communities in Peru at the same time!

99 Feelings

Did you know there are at least 99 feelings one can feel? I didn’t! We usually stop thinking after the happy-sad-angry-mad. lol!
A little while back, the super friendly Mitsy of ArtMind decided her next project would be to represent 99 feelings with her ceramic work. I had the joy of following every one, one by [...]

Silhouette Mobiles

Why should mobiles be only cute and without humour? Salty and Sweet understands that!
With themes like PinUp and MisStep and Riot, and made out of mat board, now adults can customise their own ceilings :)

Floating Pompoms

I’ve never been a cheerleader (so NOT for me… lol), but I’m always impressed with cheerleading competitions I see on TV. Those girls and guys got it going on!!! Anyway, I’ve always thought the pompoms lacked some style… I know, I know, tradition!
Anyway, I’m totally enjoying PomLove’s shop. And I mean litterally! Looking at the [...]
