it is with a sad heart that i say goodbye to my favorite comedian of all time, mitch hedberg. he was the funniest person i ever heard. the world is a little bit sadder and certainly not as funny without him. so, instead of a moment of silence, i’d like to share some of mitch’s…
dornbracht‘s name reminds me of mike meyers in sprokets. ah i miss the days when snl was funny. ok, sorta funny. ok, sometimes funny. anyway, make no mistake, dornbracht is no joke- they make seriously gorgeous accessories and fixtures for the bathroom. not exactly the kind i could afford, but i’m sure someone out there…
jocelyn warner makes purdy wallpaper. i’d write more but i’m verging on overload and fear i need some caffeine, stat! the long and short of it is: jocelyn will make your walls go from drab to fab (i’ve always wanted to use that expression in earnest) in no time flat. you can find her full…
ok, i saved the best for last when it came to today’s obsessive fred flare posts. i loove these placemats. i love them. they’re made by bob’s your uncle and they feature photographs of old school diners and diner memorabilia. you can’t lose with these. especially if you have someone messy in your life. plop…
cheep and cheap go together like peanut butter and jelly. especially for a bird nut like me. i love these chickadee pillows- looks like something one good bumblebee would like. hi, one good bumblebee!
i love fred flare. have i said that yet today? soooo trendy and crazy and fun. i wouldn’t go there to invest in lifetime pieces, but it’s a great stop for fun design that will spice up your humble abode. this week i love books from fred flare. first off, i love the pie book…
great store. great stuff. i love this little retro tokyo alarm clock. super cute and super sweet. click here to pick one up.
i love this light. it’s going to be exhibited by hidden art uk at the milan show this year (i wish i could go, boo hoo) and i LOVE it. nuff said. made by damdesign and it’s damn good.
my mom had a cat named reefer in the 70′s. i just had to share that. not only because it’s hysterical, but because it sorta relates to this post. these glasses from factory 37 are made from recycled reef glasses, which make them super environmentally friendly. “the green glass company takes original bottles that are…
it’s been way too long since i’ve posted about rena and wouldn’t ya know- she’s got new stuff up. such a busy bee. my favorite brooklyn jewelry lady is at it again with a gorgeous new collection of summer 2005 jewelry. i’ve posted by favorites here, but you can see the whole shabang if you…
yeah i know, that title’s from those obnoxiously whiny freelancer’s union ads, but it fits, i swear. new deal design makes some sorta cool designy gadgets that i’ve mentioned before, but i wanted to add these pieces. i saw this radio at target and looved it. it’s a bit ninties, but i’m still catchin up…
i’ve talked about kate storer before. her groovy touch pillows were sultry and oh so bad in the very best way. now she’s put out something with that’s a little bit sweeter- a cat duvet and pillow set that would be perfect for a little girl’s room or you know, one of those 30 year…
for some reason i have miami vice stuck in my head. the movie wanted to borrow some furniture from a client of ours and ever since i’ve had that cheesy 80′s style in my head. this chair from waazwiz reminds me of that style. rock on neon pink and yellow! crockett and tubbs forever!
don’t want to say it too loud but blogger might be back. hooray! real quick, ms. blue tea bag commented below and i like her stuff, wanted to share it. cute jewelry type accesories. click here for more info. thanks blue tea bag!
i saw nora from project runway this morning on my stop of the L. and what did i do? act like a goon and stare at her and do like 25 double takes to make sure it was her. i walked behind her for a block being like, small, cute, mohawk, stylish- it’s either naima…
sometimes i wish i could just live in velocity art and design. i know i can’t, but i wish i could. i’d love to wake up surrounded by all their amazing art and all sorts of rad design stuff. then i’d wander to their kitchen section and cook something delicious with awesomely designed spatulas and…
i’ve wanted to write something about adrian tomine for some time, but fearing both another melt down from blogger and the idea that adrian’s work is so widely revered i’d somehow mangle a review- i’ve postponed it until now. but today i decided, blogger is giving me a headache so if i’m going to struggle…
i’ve been trying to put this up DAYS and it’s driving me insane. so sorry guys. i don’t even have the energy to type it all. these are SICK plantariums by the same people who make the crazy futuristic art farm. i love it. gel instead of soil, so cool.
sorry guys, blogger has been down, i dont even know if this will post. im so sorry things have been totally dead the past three days. i have these posts waiting to go but it wont let me post. im so sad. im sorry guys. but, there is a a silver lining- i’ll be moving…
ac can attest to the fact that i frequently fall in love with packaging. maybe it’s because i’m the product of parents that were involved in advertising and marketing, as well as the “interior” arts, but i seem to be constantly pulled towards packaging, the aesthetic and interesting advertising campaigns. for this reason, my latest…
