tom rossau lighting + world’s smallest valentines


when it comes to lighting, i tend to prefer things that are highly decorative and shiny. for some reason the smaller size makes me more adventurous. but when i saw these beautiful lamps from tom rossau in denmark i was reborn as a minimalist lighting girl. charlie at tom rossau sent over the TR15 lamps that the company is showing in sweden this week. this series of lamps (both hanging and table) are based around a magnetic ball so that the shades actually swivel in whatever direction you want. all that clean wood makes me want to clean off my desk and embrace a more minimalist space. click here for more info on the tr15 collection. thanks, charlie!



lea, the lovely postmaster of the world’s smallest postal service is taking on valentine’s day this year with her “world’s smallest valentine’s packages“. i love the play on small things with a “cute as a button” theme- it’s such a sweet, and unexpected, way to send someone you love a little hello. click here for more information and to place an order. thanks, lea!

I had been meaning to purchase one of the world’s smallest letters for a Valentine’s Day gift, but this is even better. Thanks for the reminder!

I’ve used Lea’s “postal service” and it was such a fun little gift for my husband’s birthday — complete with mini magnifier. Love the Valentine’s Day concept!!

Oh I love it! How quaint! I’m not sure how my partner would have gone reading the teeny tiny letters though…
