More ‘gothic’ plates by Mr. Paul…just in case you’d like to add to the others (Gothic Side Plates posted previously).

Dishwasher safe, not microwavable.
Measures 11″ in diameter.
Set of 4.

These trays/bowls are really something different. Sure, they’re made of buttons and border on something that your grandmother would’ve made, but I think the craftmanship and size make it more special (as well as modern).

“Ordinary buttons become extraordinary once they are stitched and knotted together to create these unique trays. These sturdy, yet pliable pieces are a versatile addition to any room.”

I’ve always been slightly intrigued by this piece of technology but I find it a LOT more intriguing now that it’s 25% off (temporarily).

For those of you who haven’t seen it yet, the MultiPot Personal Electric Charger serves as a charger for up to 5 portable devices, as a place to store all your charging cords and as an ambient LED light source. The Multipot can shine light for 60,000 hours by pushing the button on the lid of the bucket. That’s 7 years.

Also, do not be fooled by the photo. It’s actually a lot smaller in person. It’s only 7.5″ high with a 9.25″ Diameter. It also comes with a 50 inch cord.

Journals are a great gift because they tell the recipient “Hey, you have something important to say. Write it down.” And you could just give someone a 99 cent spiral bound notebook but then it wouldn’t really be a gesture. And maybe just having a journal that is well designed and thought out would encourage someone to write. And this journal is a good example of a well designed one. The first page is pure white, and each page gets progressively redder until the last page which is very very red.

Materials:
Paper in Various Shades of Red; Plastic Cover; 8.5″ x 5.75″

These really are pretty clever…

These handcrafted resin cube lights can be hung on the wall or used on a surface. Since the bulb is a 4 watt night light it doesn’t emit much heat.

The way the saucers act as a lid is a definite benefit, and I especially like the spoon/stirrers. I think this would be a nice gift for someone that entertains…

For those of you that are hopeless at tablecloths and fancy napkin folding, you need not fear. Laser cut lines provide a guide for any sort of table as well as adding a bit of decoration. The napkins have guides for two different classical arrangements. You might have to save up for the set, but it would be worth it.

This particular set of lights can be reconfigured at any time you see fit. Floor lamp, furniture, whatever you can think of…

“Use these bricks of light to build simple or complex forms in monochrome or multicolor light. A unique rotating plug system allows the modules to connect wirelessly to one another vertically or horizontally.
Each light comes with four reconfiguarable modules of the same color, and one cord, which can power up to 12 modules. Additional sets of four modules of one color are available separately.”

Just when you thought the wall vinyl category couldn’t get any fatter, here comes along a couple of playful characters…(I think you could get away with tucking the cat into a corner somewhere, but you’d sure have to be committed to buy the whole horse).

“The objective of Domestic is to create collections of articles devised by designers, graphic artists or artists whose common denominator is to offer a means for the end user to freely participate. With Vynil, an alternative to wallpaper, the principle of the collection is simple: literally hand over to users who are invited to transform their interior into an area for expression and design their own decor. Thanks to Vynil, the wall space becomes the playing field for composition and into which one can put a lot of effort and invention. Beyond the practical interest it represents (no longer any need for glue or a pasting table); the Vynil collection enables new thought to be given to the place and role of the ornamental pattern in our interiors.”

What a great gift for your favorite sushi-phile. Perfect little kimono inspired shapes highlight these delicate plates.

We’ve posted this before (because it’s a perpetual calendar, of course) but it is now half off! You’d be crazy not to snap one of these up for yourself or as a gift for a friend.

“Instead of designing a calendar that could only be used for one year, French product designer Jean-Pierre Vitrac developed one that can be re-used indefinitely, year after year. cleverly hidden numbers are defined by a magnetic cursor.”

50″W x 1″D x 50″H

Colors: grey/white, red/white

This cup bears resemblance to a cupcake, but I say that meaning it in a good way (for who doesn’t love cupcakes?). This cup is much more handy to have (than a cupcake) when handling hot or cold beverages. Would be a stand-out gift for someone that needs a new beverage-holder.

“Porcelain cup encased in easy to grip silicone sleeve. The silicone insulates the cup, keeping hot hot and cold cold, protects your hands from heat, and looks great too.”

Dimensions: 4.3″Ø x 3.5″H

Available in Mint, Plum or Carrot

If you or someone you’re fond of is a connoisseur of wine (or sake), this particular glass would be nice and special. It arrives in its own small wooden crate (which could be displayed on its own) that rounds out the whole ‘special’ package.

“The 8 oz glass is exceptionally thin and has a beautiful inverted droplet shape which, as you gently swirl the glass, helps to aerate the liquid and release the bouquet.”
