Crushing on Chapeau, a set of porcelain serving and storage bowls that come with two different tops that can be interchanged. Their spaceship-y shapes are much more aesthetically pleasing than your everyday Tupperware! (Coming soon to Alma’s Room.)

LEIF is one of my favorite shops. You know, the kind where you can picture buying one of everything and know exactly where it would go in your home. Their new arrivals are killing it with a pitch perfect feeling of modern simplicity. And yes, I’ll take one of each. (I wish!)

Notice anything curious about these Stampo Cups? They were each kicked in the bottom with a boot during the molding process, leaving an imprint of the sole. These colorful glasses by Niels Cosman are each hand-formed and entirely unique, not bad for getting kicked in the butt!

I’ve been collecting glass bottles from seltzer, sangria, and sauces for months now. Last weekend I finally figured out what I wanted to do with them, make gold colorblocked home accessories of course! It’s really easy if you have a half hour to spare and makes a great display when grouped together. Wanna learn how to make your own?
What you’ll need:
• glass jar(s) or bottle(s)
• painter’s tape
• spray paint in the color of your choosing
• newsprint or garbage bag
Start with a clean container. I soaked them labels off of mine in the sink with a little dish soap, then used a green kitchen scrubber to get the glue and label off.
Next, figure out where you want your paint line to hit and use a strip of painter’s tape to make a clean line all the way around the container.
At this point move the whole project outside if you haven’t already. Lay down a piece of newsprint or a garbage bag and flip the container upside down. Spray a light coat of paint to cover the base.
Once it’s dry, flip the container back over and use a bit more painter’s tape to attach a piece of a paper that covers the part you don’t want to get paint on. Then stuff the excess paper inside the opening.
Now lightly spray the sides, making sure to overlap the tape and paper. Allow to dry, then go over again if glass is showing through.
Once the paint is completely dry remove the paper and tape. Tada! A super clean line. And now you have a vase, or pencil container, or insta-accesory.

Leftovers are boring at least 75% of the time. I think these kicky To Go Containers would make a dent in that statistic* for the better.
