100 Days.

For 100 consecutive days – October 30, 2008 to February 6, 200 – Rachel Berger picked a paint chip out of a bag and responded with a short write up associated with the selected color.

I’m sort of obsessed with Rachel’s 100 Days project for a few reasons. First, I have a thing with collecting paint chips like mad. Second, I find it so interesting that color can evoke memories. I’m seeing a possible 2010 New Year’s resolution emerge as I type…

Reflect Mirror.

I love the seemingly obvious, yet absolutely brilliant twist in this design. The perfect piece to hang inside my entry way. I’ll take one Reflect Mirror, the black please!

The reflect mirror with its 90° angle can be used as a tray to place your keys, sun glasses, jewelries, coins etc so that you won’t forget to take them with you after checking yourself out in the mirror. For men, the angled portion of the mirror allows you to see below your chin when shaving, which can come in handy as well. Also, with a total of 8 holes on the rear of each mirror, reflect mirror can be placed almost anywhere on the wall, including corners.

Corey Holms.

See these beautiful, serene photographs by Corey Holms? They’re made out of food dye, vegetable oil and water. All things you can find in your kitchen. I’m tempted to try my hand at something similar, but have a feeling it would only end in tears and a rainbow colored kitchen floor. So for now I’ll content myself with the fact that a few of Corey’s are for sale here.
