Sweet Detail

nmyra — Mon, 18 Oct 2010 18:43:19 +0000

Fresh. Modern. Timeless. What better way to “save the date” than to stitch it onto the inside of your wedding dress. Monograms have become so cliche as of late in wedding decor. If I see one more cake topper with initials, I might lose all remaining faith in people. Luckily, my faith is temporarily restored by this super sweet detail. I can’t help but love the incorporation of the ever-changing world of design into the deep-rooted traditions of the western wedding. My only minor tweak to this would be to model it after my (one and only) favorite calendar — the Stendig. Can we say the epitome of avant-garde chic?

As a huge Jackie O fan, this one makes me smile more than any other.

Not so ordinary

New ways to look at ordinary objects. Case and point: pencil salt and pepper shakers. A tongue-in-cheek way to season your food.

A great conversation starter when your guests come over and hang up their jackets.

Always On Time

The On-Time Clock fast forwards 3 minutes of your time so that you’re not constantly running out the front door. It may not get you there on time but I like the design and thought. On that note, I think it’s time to listen to Time by Pink Floyd.

Text Staircase

I saw this and my heart melted. It literally translates to “I climb, You climb, He climbs, We climb.” How French. I love it. Great idea that I’m going to steal. Not sure what text I’d choose but it would definitely be in French. Je l’aime.

Tea Time

I really like this teabag teaspoon cup and saucer set. For one thing, the black on white always grabs my interest. Additionally, I love the sketch/hand decorated look. Very organic. Very pretty.
