Loving: Salt Pig


I've decided that I need a Salt Pig like this one from Crate and Barrel. No particular reason for this recent decision except the joy of hearing guests ask that someone "please pass the salt pig."

Loving: Army Style Medical Storage Box

Of course, every house should have a first aid kit, but I would love to have mine stored in this Army Style Medical Storage Box from Graham and Green. It's just so awesomely obvious so everyone would know exactly where it is, but oddly stylish enough to just keep out in the open.

Loving: Diana F+ Camera


I'm pretty happy with my current digital camera, but I would love to have an old school camera like this Diana F+ from Lomography at Velocity. It takes awesomely 70s looking photos, and you can actually get the satisfaction of bringing a roll of film in to be developed.

Loving: Martha Stewart Bloomery Rug


I totally heart Martha Stewart. I actually had a subscription to the magazine when I was a teenager (yeah, I'm a dweeb). So, I would naturally love to have an entire house outfitted with Martha furnishings like this Bloomery rug, a fully stocked craft room with every color of Martha Stewart Glitter and a kitchen with all of her pretty cooking tools.

Loving: Renate Flora Duvet Set


Everytime I see really sweet bedding, like this Renate Flora duvet set from Ikea, I swoon and start envisioning waking up on a sunny Saturday morning cuddled up in it. Then, I crash back to reality where I live with a guy who woule never go for something like this, and even if he would, the baby would never let me sleep that late and wake that peacefully. I can still dream though!

Loving: State-By-Celebrity Tote Bag


This State-by-Celebrity Tote Bag from Melangerie, Inc., at Supermarket HQ is so much more fun than those boring grocery totes you buy from the store. I would probably remember to actually bring my bags to the store because I would want to see the funny faces on the baggers.

Loving: Babushka Piggy Bank


These Babushka Piggy Banks from Studio Ooga at Emmo Home are a perfectly simple form of a piggy bank. They would look really cool grouped together on a dresser and you could label them for different expenditures (shoes, vacation, more piggy banks...).

Loving: Alphabet Cards


I love everything about these Alphabet Cards from CreativePlace's Etsy shop, especially those awesomely retro illustrations. I would probably have to buy two sets, one for the kid and one for me.

Loving: Coconut Laquerware Bowls


I love the contrast of the natural brown interior and the bright exteriors in these Coconut Laquerware Bowls from Branch. They seem like the perfect size to set everything up when you're cooking or to use as little storage bowls.

Loving: Papermen Coat Rack

This Papermen Coat Rack from Dutch by Design would look really cute in a kid's room. It's the perfect combination of practical and adorable.

Loving: Pia Wallen Slip-in Slipper

So when I was little I got it in my mind to make my mom a pair of slippers as a surprise. So I found some nice green fabric, traced my mom's shoes right in the middle of it, and cut them out. A little glue and some cotton balls later I gave them to my mom only to have her realize I'd cut up the fabric she'd just bought to make a new skirt for herself.

These Slippers from Pia Wallen at Velocity remind me exactly of those slippers, though without the glued on cotton balls.

Loving: Outdoor Hanging Candles

I love that these Outdoor Hanging Candles from Dutch by Design can be hung just about anywhere so you can have candle light everytime you have dinner outdoors without cluttering up the table or installing permanent light fixtures.

Loving: Walk Through the Woods Note Pad Set

I'm a complete sucker for cute paper like these Walk Through the Woods Note Pad Sets from Cicada Studio at Supermarket HQ. I even have stacks of stationary that's too pretty to write on and mail to prove it. So I would love to get these to jot down quick notes or shopping lists, but we all know they would just end up lying nicely on top of my desk.

Loving: Fifties Kitchen Hanger

This Fifties Kitchen Hanger from Graham and Green is really cute, and you always need all the storage space you can get in the kitchen. Of course, there's no rule that you would have to hang this in the kitchen, but it would probably just confuse guests if you hung it in the bathroom.

Loving: Open Air Contemporary Cutlery Set

I love the look of this Open Air Cutlery Set from Dutch By Design. I don't know how it would be to eat with, but it would make a really cool place setting.

Loving: Animal Farm Wallpaper

They say that this Animal Farm wallpaper from Ferm Living at Velocity is for kids, but I would put it up in just about any room. It would be really cute as a kitchen back splash or in a bathroom, or just a small strip along the bottom of the wall.

Loving: You Are My Sunshine Pillow Slip

I love this little pillow slip from Inklore at Supermarket HQ. It was one of my favorite songs as a child, and now I sing it to my little guy.

Loving: Lacy Bird Bowl

This Bird Bowl from Prince Design UK at Supermarket HQ is made from pressing a vintage lace doily into a porcelain bowl while it was still soft. I love that the affect is texture and not just painted on, and the teal color is just beautiful.

Loving: Night Carafe

So, I don't think I would pay this much for a simple carafe, but this one from Design Within Reach is really pretty!

Loving: Flensted Airplane Mobile

I love that this Airplane Mobile from Flensted Mobiles at Design Public isn't the usual cute stuffed animals. I would definitely design an entire baby room around this mobile, with blue walls with clouds just like in the picture.
