This rotary calendar, by Toronto based designer named Chris, caught my eye.
Inventive Toilet Paper Holders
This toilet paper holder post over on Wallpaper is delightful.
Mobiles by Yuko Nishikawa
These ceramic mobiles by Yuko Nishikawa made me gasp.
You Are Enough Mirror
Jessica Hische had a heartbreaking conversation with her daughter: Her daughter told her that sometimes she looks in the mirror and wishes she had a different and more beautiful face. It inspired Jessica to make this piece with the message “You Are Enough”. For the full story, see her instagram post about it. Wonderful.
You can pre-order it here. (Love her experimental pricing.)
Birch Wood Hooks
I love the simplicity of these woo Birch Wood Hooks. Also comes in a row of 4.
Selfportrait (Quarantine)
What a stunning self-portrait by Ingrid Emaga. (You can buy it as a print!)
Floating Plant Hanger
Give the illusion of floating plants with this plant hanger hook.
My Life in Weeks
My life in weeks poster is a powerful visual reminder how short life is. Each box corresponds to one week in an average 88-year lifespan, and every filled-in box is one that you have already lived.
Massimo Vignelli Subway Posters
This series of six posters was designed by Massimo Vignelli, Beatriz Cifuentes and Yoshiki Waterhouse in 2013. Each is a tight crop of the New York City Subway Diagram at matching scale. Lovely!
(Thanks Jesse!)

It’s almost March, I know, but this hyper minimal calendar is too pretty not to share. GAH!
Kelly Knaga Print
Limited edition screen print by Kelly Knaga. Lovely.
Maple and Leather Wall Hook
A wall hook I’d welcome in my home. Also comes in black.
Not The Moon
NOT THE MOON is a pancake, digitized as a high-res, film quality scan, its texture applied to a true-to-scale sphere representation and virtually photographed with a 600 mm telescopic lens using minimal shutter and small aperture. Post-production (brightness & contrast, positive/negative) has intentionally been kept to an absolute minimum. Each variant is available as a limited edition of 100 silkscreen prints, signed, numbered and coded in reference to how minor planets are formally designated: e.g. 129 PNCK, while “1” indicates the variant/edition and “29” describes the amount of pancakes it took for that perfect one to make it all the way through and into the final edition.
Made me smile.
(I asked the internet which small shops/makers I should support. This was one of the suggestions.)
Andrew Zuckerman Prints
Andrew Zuckerman launched an online shop. His prints are stunning. Absolutely stunning. This Mandrill Monkey won my heart.
Extruded Blob
I am a huge fan of Zach Lieberman and am so happy to see he started selling prints now. This extruded blob won my heart. If you haven’t seen his talk from the 2017 National AIGA Conference, it’s well worth 30min of your time.
Only Love Banner
Yes to this message. Only love. Banner by Rayo and Honey.
(I asked what small shops/makers I should support. This was one of the suggestions.)

Create A “Noticing Wall” For Your Kid
I love the idea of a Noticing Wall – a zero-pressure space for parents and kids to write notes to each other, ask questions, jot down fun things you learned, and make plans. I’ll definitely give this a try!
Please Wash Hands
Please Wash Hands. Pretty, please.
Ceramic Rainbow
A ceramic rainbow to hang on your wall? YES PLEASE! It’s by artist Lorien Stern and at this point unfortunately sold out. Let’s hope she brings them back! I am definitely wishlisting this!
