Colour Block Book Ends

Colour Block Book End-1-Design Crush

 

Loving these simple Colour Block Book Ends, equally apropos for children or adults in my opinion. (Which I love, because who wants to deck out their entire home in bunnies and teddybears?!) Crossing my fingers that the whole alphabet becomes available eventually so I can snag a K for my collection!

unihook

Unihook-1-Design-Crush

 

I first spied the genius unihook in Alyson Fox‘s Austin home this past April and fell in love. I meant to ask her where/who they were from, but I was having way too good a time to remember to do so. Now I’m happy to report that they’re by Pat Kim and each one can support up to 30 lbs! I love the versatility – use it to hang dish towels in the kitchen, hand towels in the bathroom, or even coats.

Periodic TableWare

Periodic TableWare-1-Design Crush

 

Good barware is a staple in my life, which is why I was immediately drawn to Periodic TableWare. It’s a line of drinkware based on the look of classic laboratory glass. Can you imagine how fun it would be to host a mixology party featuring this collection?! If you’re into it as much as I am, pop over to Kickstarter and give ’em a little support.

Feliz

Feliz-1-Design Crush

 

Are you brave enough to bring some neon into your home? The trend doesn’t seem to be going anywhere, and I for one am a-okay with it! These killer bedding pieces from Australia-based Feliz pack the perfect sized punch that won’t make your room look too kiddy or teeny bopper. The white acts as a neutral to even out the look, and I gotta say I’m feelin’ it! (via Anthology)

PS: I know the last one is gold not neon, but I couldn’t resist!
