When my boyfriend asked me yesterday what these things were, I promised him he would learn it soon on my blog. It’s been ages since I saw a furniture that was born to be featured here.

The collection named The Chankley Bore was designed by Marteen Baas for the british brand Established & Son.

The collection debuted at the Milan fair last month, and will be seen again in the autumn in the gallery of Established & Sons.

One of the happiest things in life is cheese. And here’s the proof: the smiley cheese knives set.

Through my LSD experience and my new picture of reality, I became aware of the wonder of creation, the magnificence of nature and of the animal and plant kingdom. I became very sensitive to what will happen to all this and all of us.

Draw a chair without lifting your pen. Draw some zig-zags in it! The result will be something like this:

The Zig-Zag chair might not look comfortable, but the aluminum frame is covered with a thick layer of foam. It will be available to buy only from the summer 2008.

Even though today we prefer to send e-mails or e-cards, there are certain occasions when we want to make sure that the message stays with the receiver longer than a click.

Of this happens, use the cards from Zeichen Shop. They are made of 100% recycled paper, and there are one for every occasion. If you don’t find what you’re looking for, they’re also open for custom work.

Robert Bradford was born in London, and he’s the king of making the most of things unwanted. Now I know what to do with all the little toy figures, with all the broken matchbox wheels, with all the broken dolls eyes that gathered up throughout my life.

Although I’m afraid my talent is nowhere anywhere near his.

My endless search for the best hand cream led me to wear gloves that come from a bottle. It feels like that, anyway, when I use Gloves In A Bottle.

gloves_in_a_bottle.jpg

Gloves In A Bottle is a shielding lotion – it bonds with the outer layer of your skin and helps lock in your natural oils and moisture. And also it is in a friendly relationship with eczema; the use of this cream doesn’t irritate your skin in any way.

Good news: Gloves In A Bottle can be also applied on the face and on the body as well.

Anderson Horta is a brazilian designer. First he grabbed my attention with his Cloud salt shaker that is made of rubber, so you can literally squeeze the insides out.

A bit less funny, but very expressive is his Smash doormat.

Finally, his latest work: the Jesus money-box, that is ready to sacrifice itself once more… for your new notebook!

Genius.

If you sleep like me… actually, you don’t even need to be asleep; if you loll about like I do, the Forever Blanket is for you!

You can move about as you wish, the blanket will never run out. Moreover, it is a blanket, a mattress and a pillow all in one.

My all time favourite parisienne, Nicole Locher is finally back with her new collection. Since we found her website last year, we’ve been die-hard fans!

Amongst the new styles with new embroidered texts you can also find the most popular pieces of last years collection. That makes us even happier!

Ok, ok, it might be just a bit too rude, but on the other hand, it might be just the most efficient thing ever.

The idea is from Mike Barnes. We wouldn’t recommend it to those who lack self-confidence.

Violise Lunn danish fashion designer is making her one of a kind pieces of clothing in her studio in Copenhagen. But alongside creating wearable items she has another obsession: unwearable items.

violiselunn1.jpg paper dress shoes

But these aren’t unwearable for the same reasons haute couture clothing is. The reason is the material: these dresses are made of paper.

And even though you can’t wear paper dresses, you can see them on different exhibitions all over the world.

Are you trying to give up cigarettes, but you terribly miss cigarette-breaks? Well, why don’t you have a cuppa every time you want to smoke? Of course it’s not the same, but maybe you get closer to the real experience with Cigarettea, the tea bags that look like fags.

The idea is by Schnaider, who believes it can be also used as a great ice-breaker.

It’s always worth it to re-visit the websites of the designers. Jasper Van Grootel, who designed my favourite tiles that make your bathroom look like a computer game, is here with another collection called Plastic Fantastic.

In this collection he upgraded old classic furniture to a modern design by coating them with a soft rubber. They can be used both indoors and outdoors.

The sofas and armchairs are available in a whole palette of colours and are all individually crafted.

Recycle, recycle, recycle. I hear it so much, I literally have a bad conscience if I don’t put the plastic, the paper or the glass in the right bin. Which is good. But what is even better is all the creative ideas that come from recycling.

Although I’m not convinced about the practical use of this handmade coat rack made of recycled bottles, it is eco-friendly and it is a beauty.
