for some reason waking up this morning was a bear- so i thought i’d start off the day with three things that make me laugh, smile and think.

first off is the gorgeous textile hanging above by finnish design ritva puotila. i was reading libby anderson’s blog and found this piece and was instantly smitten. so much fabric, so much drama- i love it. libby titled her post about this piece “mille-feuille” and i couldn’t agree more- it reminds me of the beautiful dress carrie wore in sex and the city when baryshnikov takes her to paris. sigh…so romantic.

second is a piece that makes me laugh- jaime hayon’s chicken rocker. not sure what on earth i would do with a piece like this, but i can’t help wanting to ride it on like one of those playground toys that bob back and forth. [via libby]

and last but not least are sara‘s amazing posts on croatia on the d*s guest blog today. in addition to beautiful textiles, jewelry and architecture, she’s even sharing a delicious recipe for krafne, a traditional croatian donut. yum. click here to check out her posts for today…
