Why aren't there more electronics like this? It's a radio with two simple buttons for volume, two toggle buttons for on/off and am/fm and a rotary dial for the stations. Perfect for NPR or kickin' out the jams at work. Did I mention a state of the art amplifier and that it's AC rechargeable?...Read more

It's a collapsible funnel. Why all funnels aren't collapsible is beyond me; it makes total sense and completely eliminates any storage challenges that one would have in the kitchen. You just fold it flat and stick it in a drawer. Boje Estermann, the man behind the magic, got the inspiration from his reflex camera (the accordion-like shape). It's made of Santoprene, which is a durable/flexible material that can withstand those...Read more

This is such a nice rug for such a nice price. And 8' square! Not bad. Plush wool/jute/cotton pile; cotton back. Rug pad recommended. Imported. 8'sq....Read more

Look at these crazy chairs! It's upholstered polyurethane with polyester filling. The cover can be made with your own material. That means you pick out fabric or leather from anywhere in the world and you give it to them. They'll make the cover for you. Nice....Read more

For you non-perpetual calendar types (sorry Katie) Vignelli offers this visual beauty for a wall near you. As the numbers are close together, there's scarcely enough room to write, so I suggest getting a red wax pencil for you to inscribe cryptic circles and x's on certain days. I leave the decision of which days to choose to you. Ed. note: I honestly do love perpetual calendars though. Much more...Read more

I imagine this would be stunning in a room with some nice chairs and a rug and a coffee table and not much else. Understated yet entirely imaginative. available in 3 sizes in white, black, graphite and grey....Read more

This mirror is something to make note of, as it's got lots of tiny names all over it. I'm assuming the foggy gentleman is present only to show the mirrory-ness, so don't fret. Unfortunately the designer is "not known" at the moment, so if you'd like to take credit, certainly let us know. measures 16" x 24"...Read more

Made out of solid mango wood, this little stool could be considered a steal for the price. Yesterday I saw something really very quite similar for about four times as much. It had a little bit more character to it, and a slightly different shape, but I'm guessing if you're pinching pennies certain sacrifices are necessary. Made in Thailand. 12" round x 18"h...Read more

Perfect for an entryway or any small space, don't you think? The two-legged design allows for space to be utilized to its full potential- since it mounts to the wall you avoid baseboards getting in the way (that little inch can actually be a lot when space is tight). The table includes all mounting hardware for both dry wall or stud mounting and of course a little assembly is required....Read more

Here we go again with the 2d to 3d design. This in/out box would be perfect for all your work-pile separating needs. It has a unique dual-surface mechanism which prevents the mingling of paperwork that has yet to be worked on with paperwork that needs to be worked on....Read more

This is hands down my favorite perpetual calendar. I've got a page featuring this calendar torn out from a 1998 Elle Decor (the UK edition) somewhere and I've been intending on finding a local source when I just stumbled upon it today. Thank you, Dumb Luck. If you can't tell from the photo, the black circle is a magnet which reveals the date when it's placed in the right spot....Read more

So has anybody bought any of this yet? I'm really quite curious to know how it looks. Is it of decent quality? For those of you that haven't seen or heard about Target's new take on furniture (or rather, it's forray into the affordable modernish crowd of furniture), this is a sample of some of the "Vintage Modern" collection. It looks pretty promising, but who knows....Read more

Kinda cute and kinda not so expensive as to give anybody a heart attack. "Handy for desktop or nightstand use, the table lamp adds a lipped base that serves as a way station for clips, change and other small items. Each lamp comes with an 11W energy-efficient bulb, which provides light equivalent to a 60W incandescent bulb." Available in Black, Dark Brown, Pink, Red, or White 6" diam. x 20"...Read more

I absolutely love these plates and I know that they are way too expensive (at least for the average person). But they're so completely lovely; the hand painted insects were taken from a famous Cumberland pattern designed by Joseph Zachenberger from 1760-1765 (I'm such a sucker for historical replicas). hand painted, glazed porcelain bisque underneath. Insect fruit plate (one insect), $290.00, Insect fruit plate (two insect), $350.00, Insect fruit plate...Read more
