The good news is the Spin Stool from Swedese in now on sale over at the Finnish Design Shop.

If you need to refresh your bath towels, you need to look at Snowe's offerings. I ended up buying their Starter Bathe Bundle last year* and I can honestly say they're the nicest towels I've ever owned. They're soft and lightweight, and soo much better than the top-of-the-line towels I used to buy from you know where. I am still impressed with the quality, so much so that I ended...Read more
