Sound Of Music

I live in a very quiet home. It is sooooo quiet around here! The only sounds I hear are the ticking of my clock and the weird noises that my fridge makes. Oh yeah... and let's not forget the noises coming from the telly when I'm watching it. But there's no sounds of music, no melody, no rhyme, no nothing.

This is what I need and what I want! This would make an end to the two years of silence at my home! Maybe someday...

Tivoli Audio iPal.

Or maybe this one... Tivoli Audio Model One.

In white, of course!

Any Day Now...

A little niece of mine will be born soon... any day now possibly. I have promised to the mom-to-be, that I will take care of teaching something about good design to her little princess. I think I might start with these ones.

I love these classic wooden toys from Brio and their new(ish) bright and glossy outfit! BTW, the photo above is from one of my daily reads, NOTCOT.

Round And Round It Goes...

Look what I just found... What a cool space saver, especially for those with many or should I say countles pairs of shoes. Just spin the wheel and choose the pair of the day!

Shoe Wheel by Rakku Design is a mobile storage unit with 20 expandable pockets that can hold up to 30 pairs of shoes depending on the type.

Rakku Design has also a storage for the large footed men. The Shoe Pod accommodates sizes up to 14-plus and holds up to 12 pairs of shoes.

And for the kids there's a mini version of the Shoe Wheel, the Rakkiddo. The Rakkiddo can store up to 20 pairs of children's shoes depending on the type and size.

Easter

HAPPY EASTER!

I'll be back on Tuesday.

Saimaa

These look pretty.

Saimaa is a brand new tableware set, designed by Paola Suhonen for Finnish Kermansavi. A beautiful embossed butterfly evokes the lacework traditions of Finland. The design is both nostalgic and modern. Products are 100% Finnish, designed and manufactured in Finland.

Have You Heard The Good News?

Yippee!!! FINALLY... this is what we've been waiting for and now it's true. I read the news from the new interior magazine Divaani. Yep, Habitat is coming to Finland! HOORAY!! Less than two months wait and after that we just need to make our way to Stockmann. From there you can find the nice little shop-in-shop full of cool things from Habitat. I can't hardly wait!
