Are you a bike enthusiast? If so, you’re probably going to like the Tattly we launched yesterday: Red Bike by Katie Evans, Let’s Ride by Mike Lowery, Pixel Bike by United Pixelworkers. Yay for spring and bike weather!

Rolognese Spaghetti Fork
The Rolognese Spaghetti Fork would definitely put a smile on my daughter’s face.
Fliders
Fliders are like slippers for your mouse. They are supposed to make gliding across surfaces smoother, sans mouse pad. Totally going to give these a try.

YES!
This check cotton twill bow-tie by Alexander Olch makes me wish it was a mandatory accessory for all Studiomates. How can you not smile when wearing one of these?

Beast
I have just fallen in love with Beast Pillow no.164. I dare you not to smile while looking at this little fellow.
Pig Planter
I give this handmade ceramic Pic Planter two thumbs up. Also comes in white and yellow.
Airplane Doorstop
This Airplane Doorstop made me smile. It probably also decorative when you are not actually using as a doorstop. Totally ordering one for our apartment.
Zig Zag Baskets
These Zig Zag Baskets make me happy.
The Egg Carton
You might not realize but Easter is approaching fast! April 8th is just around the corner.
That’s why we launched the Tattly Egg Carton today! It includes one dozen white plastic eggs, two each of Floppy Ears, Nerdy Bunny, Red Kicks, Freckles, Funny Bunny, and Good Bunny, and a cute carton to hold it all together. The eggs can be reopened in case you want to add a little extra fun in them!
If you’re not into plastic eggs, but more into handwritten notes, you can also buy Easter Card Sets.
Check out the entire Easter Collection. Bunnies make me happy!
Puzzlus Puzzle
Puzzlus Puzzle is a perfect gift for the color loving puzzle enthusiast!
Tattly for Coffee Lovers
Today’s Tattly Tuesday is dedicated to all coffee afficionados. (1 Tattly with 4 Coffee Illustrations by the amazing Julia Rothman)
Nerd Valentine
It’s that time of the year again: Nerd Valentine! YES!
hi. postcards. ok.
There are *a lot* of people that would have every reason to send me that first card, on the left, ‘hi. i sent you an email. ok‘.
(via found it loved it)
Magnatab
My kids are completely crazy over this Free Form Magnatab Toy. They draw and write with the magnetic stylus, which raises metal balls to the surface of the sealed Magnatab base. And erase their creation by pushing the magnets back down with the back of the stylus or their fingers.
To me, it feels like taking designing for screen, pixel constraints, to the analog world.
Corkers
Next time you’re invited for dinner at a friend’s house, don’t just bring a bottle of wine, bring Corkers as well. They are a pack of adorable animal parts that turn any cork into a bunny, buffalo, bear, monkey or deer.
Soft Maps
It always puts a smile on my face when I see friends featured on blogs that I love. My studio neighbor Emily Fisher is currently featured on Herman Miller’s blog.
Emily creates stunning Soft-Maps, quilted maps of cities and neighborhoods that represent someone’s unique place in the world. She recently added baby quilts to her collection, such a fantastic gift for (designy) parents.
Maps on Quilts, made in Brooklyn? Yes, please!
Liz Openheim
What a beauty of a ring. Hat tip to the designer, Liz Openheim.
What Time Is It?
Apparently not everybody is always running late; with this in mind, Team Tattly asked Julia Rothman to put a positive spin on her bestselling You’re Late Tattly to make Love Watch.
Wear it on a date, wear it to remind yourself that everyone needs a little more love in their life, or give one to a special friend. (Valentines Day is february 14th!)
Yay for new Tattlys! Love Watch!
Double Dish
Finally, a unique solution to that age old problem of what to do with the pit after the olive has been consumed. Yay for the Double Dish.

Burning Man 2011 X Dr Seuss
In case you haven’t heard of the amazing kids book Oh, the Places You’ll Go Pop-Up. It’s a fantastic book.
And I admit, I am not the Burning Man Type. But this mashup-of-the-two moved me.
