The simple, ceramic Hookbox (2005) was designed for the entryway, bathroom or any other space where you can use a hook and a storage container for small items. The Hookbox works great in multiples and can hold 12 lbs on the hook and 2 lbs in the storage container.
I would like one for our little Ella, so I can store her sippy cup, binky and blankie. Oh, and to hang her coat. But $270 might be pushing the budget a little bit on that one…
I bought it

Onion Action Goggles with anti-fog and a foam seal against vapor. Hysterical. Silly. Definitely a conversation starter when you’re entertaining your friends…
Green Thing is a newly launched, not for profit community site. The idea is to unite people against climate change by making it easy and enjoyable to be a bit greener, with the help of London’s creative industries. Every month you get a different Green Thing to do – October’s is ‘walk once’.
Each month, Green Thing displays user-generated content (videos, photos, songs) which shows how people have done the Green Thing that month.
Collaborated to this project companies such as: PHD (Media Planning), Pentagram and Interbrand (brand identity), PR firms Shine, Cake, Bite and Mission Media (Pr and WOM). BigMouthMedia, Agency.com, Glue, Agency Republic, AKQA, Headshift and LBi are all bringing the ideas to life online.

I guess, I’ll stop posting for today! :)

Not that our little Ella is outgrowing her toddler bed yet, but I keep wondering what’s going to be next? I just fell in love with this uber-stylish bed: Bett dn43. Check out the smart hidden storage. But hey, why do I always like the really expensive stuff? Mom?
