The Lace Vase by Milk Design Shop is a turtleneck of sorts that fits over glass or plastic containers, giving something that was perhaps destined for the recycling bin a new purpose in life. (via CMYBacon)

Slightly more refined than the actual wine bottles I used to hold candlesticks in college, one might say. These were inspired by the iconic spaghetti dinner scene in Lady and the Tramp, which only makes me love them more.

I have a mantle. I have no mantle clock. This one is modern perfection.

By the time you’re reading this I’ll be Seattle-bound for a little event I’ve been invited to attend. I’ve never been to the PNW before and am incredibly stoked. Not only to get to do a few awesome things I’d never be able to do otherwise, but also to meet up with some bloggers and my BFF from junior high during the two days I’ll be in town. This girl’s got a good life. On that note, I’m leaving you with an extremely fantastic/extended list of links you’ll want to be sure and click on.

I can distinctly picture the set of brown agate coasters that sat on our coffee table when I was a kid. I hated them. And now I can’t seem to get enough of the stuff, my how times change. Although I’m certain the jewel tones don’t hurt either. (via Alice)

Archival Clothing is the perfect example of the sort of style I prefer in everyday life – clean lines, subdued palette, classic feel. I honestly couldn’t find even on thing in their shop that I wouldn’t love to call my own. My bed is crying out for one of their MacAusland’s wool blankets and my shoulder would love a plain musette.

These sectional globes that you put together yourself are fantastically abstract in shape, I’d love to hang one from the ceiling in the corner of my living room. (Psst… you can even color them to your liking!) (via Design For Mankind)

I’m so jealous of Canadians right now. Not only do they have an awesome medical system they also have the Hoot Vase, which doesn’t ship to the US. I love the handblown glass shape, and because of the owl’s beak I’d be tempted to use the green one as a pitcher as well. (via Lauren Martin)
