Pictures

I have a problem with hanging pictures, and I have the blank walls to prove it. So I’ve been collecting inspirations for the day I get brave enough to pick up my hammer and actually hang something. Thought I’d share them with you, in case any one else has my problem.

I just saw these oil lamp sticks by Duo Design Holland over at NotCot, “the design is much like a metal straw with a wick inside which soaks up the oil”.

Afroditi’s Ring has a rubber stamp set on the ring just like a precious stone, secretly leaving imprints when shaking one’s hand, touching, on paper, etc.

Vintage Belt Floor Mat

September 2, 2008

This handsome, handmade floor mat, by Inghua Ting, is made of artfully assembled vintage leather belts that have been rescued on their way from waist to waste. Its rich tones, textures, and tread-friendly patina evoke the look of a wonderfully worn wood floor, albeit with a decidedly warmer under-foot feel. Each Vintage Belt Floor Mat is a one-of-a-kind creation, and as such, colors and characteristics will vary slightly from those pictured.
