I came across the portfolio site of Stephan Schulz today and these concrete bowls made me do a double take. They reflect the light just like polished natural stone, they feel comfortable and smooth cradled in your hands. The lips of the bowls – only a few millimeters thick – show that concrete is a material that can be used for the finest work, at the same time demonstrating where...Read more

Here's a fun screensaver for Mac or PC. Also available is the 1980's Mac calculator. If I still had a copy of the 1983 version of Lode Runner I'd be all set for my daily dose of Mac nostalgia. If only I had bought Apple stock instead....Read more

The stoneware crock became a houseware staple around 1720 in the North East United States, typically bearing a salt glaze and cobalt oxide blue stamps of the potters who made them. They're incredibly sturdy, relatively inexpensive and simple in execution. The wide mouth and base make the 1 gallon crock perfect for kitchen utensil storage and it's heavy enough that I don't have to worry about it tipping over. Image...Read more

I received a Kindle for my birthday (thanks M!) and I was thinking I was going to make a little case for it by buying some 2MM felt from Fitzfelt, but at $19 for an 18" square plus tax and shipping, it's almost more economical to buy it already made. Snug fit and simple design; no closures, no snaps, just thick wool felt. Perfect for protecting your ipad while you...Read more

This handmade, steel hook measures 5 inches down and extends 2.5 inches from the wall and comes with a leather base plate riser. Let's face it, whatever you'll be hanging has to be pretty spectacular to be spending $75.00 just for the hook. But, if for some reason you've been needing hand forged steel hooks with a leather base plate riser...here you go....Read more

I'd like to say this console would be easy to build, but I think that's being more than a little optimistic. The leaning design cuts down on visual clutter, seeing as there are two legs instead of the usual four, which would help a small space appear to be just a little larger. There's also a Leaning Man Side Table (£175.00) if you need a smaller sized occasional table. Designed...Read more

Don't think for a minute anyone is too old for balancing blocks. It would do many of us some good to spend a little time concentrating on something other than regular work, even if it is only for just a few moments (and even if it does just use a tiny portion of your brain). Of course, they'd make an excellent kid's gift as well. Hand made in Red Hook...Read more
