I’ve been getting my Christmas decorations out and decided I don’t like the majority of it.

So I’m longingly eyeing up this wreath by David Stark for West Elm.

I had seen these light switch plates awhile ago but I don’t believe they were actually on sale then. Now Bobby Berk Home is selling them.

However, every light switch near an entry in my house has more than one switch. Hopefully they come out with a multi one soon.

Lighthouse Ball

The Lighthouse Ball is available as a tea light holder or outdoor oil lamp, in glossy black or white porcelain.

I really like these… yet when I look at the outdoor oil lamp I want it to be really large, like at least 24″ round for use as a modern fire pit. oh well.

The Stainless Steel Letter Mailbox at Lushpad is a ”sleek and graphic mailbox, handcrafted out of marine grade stainless steel for a clean modern look, and tough to weather the elements. Featuring a real full-length piano-style hinge. The segments are welded together, and then the edges are hand-buffed.”

I don’t usually like many kitchen appliances enough to put them on this site, but the hand mixer by Philips is an exception.

Glass Markers Party People

Everyone’s seen the little jewelry for the bottom of their wine glasses…but I’m liking these Glass Markers better. They can go on any glass, instead of only ones with stems, and they are a bit more ‘manly’ then the jewelry.

A Drop of Water

Here’s a different take on the rain barrel…it looks a little like a pregnant belly but still better looking than a big plain barrel.

‘A Drop of Water’ is a rain barrel that makes saving water really easy by providing a watering can that is automatically filled when it rains. This way, the user doesn’t have to fill the can with our precious tap water, but uses ‘free’ rainwater instead to water the garden.

Snapalarm by Michael Olsson and Rickard Grönstedt is clicked into place, with no need for tools, on the cord of a pendant lamp, rod or chain. Snapalarm recieved the international red dot design award in 2005.

Kitchen Scrubbing Cloth

jenib — Thu, 03 Sep 2009 20:11:32 +0000

The Kitchen Scrubbing Cloth by Hiroki Hayashi is a ”natural abrasives in these scrubbing cloths make for a resiliant kitchen utility. No detergent is needed for use, though a tiny dab of soap can be applied for the greasiest of dishes. The scrubbing cloth can be used for several months, gets curlier and softer with use and resists odor and bacteria.

The yellow coarse scrub is made from recycled corn cobs while the red gentle scrub is made from peach pits.”
