From the PearsonMaron people, Knobs sells knobs. Made from cast aluminium in such things as dinosaurs, dogs, stars, cats, horses all in cool colours and very very nice.

A most brilliant way to transform a piece of furniture or a room.

Yay for knobs!

This has to be the coolest thing I’ve seen in ages.

It’s the mobile ideas factory from PearsonMaron who I’m now truly and utterly in love with. They also make cloud factories and heart factories.

What clever people !

I got one of these for Christmas – a snap it up organiser, which comes in my favourite of all things, rainbow colours. Such a great design store MoMA Store – I’d quite like to just move in.

A paradise for scandophiles in the UK, Skandium is a haven of good modern design. They are the exclusive agent in the UK for Asplund, iittala, Le Klint, Marimekko, Muuto, Pia Wallén and Woodnotes. Skandium is also the UK distributor for the lighting brand Louis Poulsen.

They’re in Marylebone High Street and Brompton, with a concession in Selfridges. We just love to visit every few weeks and buy something small to add to the collection.

Hooray for Skandium indeed.

We just love Alison Tauber’s lovely screenprinted tops. In organic cotton, they all look so soft and pretty. Done by hand in her Brooklyn studio.

Just beautiful.

Yellow Owl Workshop

Found via Angry Chicken, Yellow Owl has some really neat stamp sets, as well as cards, journals, prints and paintings.

Just think of all the fun you could have stamping away with this little set. They’d be great with fabric stamping ink would they not indeed!
