Wig

Sometimes concept pieces have a way of breaking your heart when they aren’t available for sale. I’m crazy for Wig, a white ceramic vase by Tania de Cruz that allows the user to create insanely artistic headdresses through the placement of florals and greenery.

Bread Spoons

These bread spoons from Niels Datema are only a concept, but they have massive amounts of potential. Who doesn’t love fresh bread? I, for one, am a little too intimidated to try baking it myself. The idea behind these spoons might help with that, just fill each one with the ingredient it’s labeled after then knead. Kinda of brilliant, yes?

Bottle Humidifier

Though this winter has been so mild, my skin has been ridiculously dry. It was suggested (after copious amounts of moisturizing) that I get a humidifier to add some extra moisture into the air. The thing is… most are hideous. At least most that I can actually afford. My ideal would be something like this Bottle Humidifier designed by cloudandco. It’s the perfect mix of form and function, and wouldn’t look the slightest bit ridiculous when not in use. (via core77)
