As a general rule drains are kinda gross things. They’re not really “fun” things that you can jazz up and renovate to your little heart’s content.
Oh wait, yes they are.
Take your sink to a whole new level with designer Joana Meroz’s ornamented metal lace drains.
Super duper sweet personalized recipe cards for you or your BFF for Valentine’s Day! Love that vintage type and the layout.

Piece by piece my house is starting to take shape. Yesterday it was in the form of purchasing a few of these cute – and super soft! – grey stitch pillows for my bed. I love that they have a removable cover for clumsy people like me who are prone to spillage!
Who says melamine has to be boring? It’s a personal favorite of mine and Marco Cibola takes it to the next level with his The Middletons plate set. Meet Doug, Janet, Claire and Perry (seriously). Welcome them to your dining table and make them a part of your family.
Marie Garnier designed this beautiful sandstone Homo Sapien tool that can be used as a knife sharpener, crushing or grinding stone (pestle). The tool measures 2.75 x 2 x 6.5″. Funny that reverting is sometimes the way to go!

I completely and totally 100% heart Harry. I’d love him to be in charge of my favorite necklaces and baubles!
“Harry’s fun, unconventional yet functional design will creatively hold and organize your everyday, conventional stuff. His 100’s of flexible and sturdy wire “hooks” will allow you to form them to fit your needs, providing the foundation to creatively organize and hold your stuff. Just mount Harry or Harry Jr. securely to the wall or other flat surface using the provided suction cups or screws.”

A lovely little meal planner. Eight weeks or 56 days worth to be exact, each separated by a different patterned paper. For those of us who need to plan ahead in order to not eat cereal every night after work. (Guilty as charged.)
And equally lovely recipe jotters. A ring bound book with 16 hand-stamped 3″x5″ recipe cards. Use them for your favorites or your “I have to write this down now”s.

I heart toast. Plain, buttered or with jam. Peanut butter or cinnamon sugar are also regulars in my repertoire.
My toaster does an okay job, but the Dualit is the King of Toasting. They recently re-engineered their iconic appliance from mechanical to electronic operation. New features include one-side bagel toasting, a defrost setting, wider slots and electronic controls that operate each slot independently. Wowzah.
