The Hive Coffee Table, a lovely way to spend LOTS of money.

The "Hive Coffee Table" is really.. well.. cool. I love the geeky use of name, but mostly I just think this is really a gorgeous piece of artwork for your home. Here's the thing. This gorgeous piece of artwork COSTS as much as a gorgeous piece of artwork. This is not a table you'd sit your kiddies at with cryons and coloring book (not JUST because the crayons would slip through the holes).

$1,650.00 is a bit steep for something like this (IMO) but personally I think it's pretty inspiring. Why not buy a cheap glass top table and paint it like this? Hmm.. may be a good idea.

Anyway.. the colors are neat, and the table is super cool and can be purchased at Yliving.com.

2 Cute 4 Words - Why not go cute in da house?

Shanalogic's Mini Birdcage Pillow makes me want to squeel with joy!

Check out this adorable mini throw pillow by mymimi! It features a unique illustration of two super-sweet birds hanging out in their lovely birdcage! Each mini pillow is 7.5"x6"x 2.5" deep and would add cuteness to any room! Buy one or mix and match!


I want to buy 10 of these and wallow in cuteness all damn day! $18.00 is not a bad deal, either!

 I realize cute is in the eyes of the beholder, and yes, this little mouse is dead (as made obvious by the x's for eyes, which everyone knows means your dead) but seriously? It's got pom pom trim! Almost anything is cute with pom pom trim (not huge pimp cars though. Not cute)

The Cherry Box has an entire obnoxiously adorable line called "Plushkill Forest". I would like ALL of them. I'd line my entryway hallway with them, complete with small plaques denoting what each one was. SO scary cute!
$48.00

I have no clue why you would want these. But they are cute. And I happen to be a big supporter of toast. Personally, I think sharpening the edges of toast turn plain bread into a scary weapon. Just think of it. Biodegradable Japanese Throwing Toast! Scary.. not kidding. BUT.. these aren't scary. They're just cute.

I love Etsy for "Cuteness"..I also love Etsy for the sheer pleasure of finding some wacky people making really odd stuff.

These are created by toshiiiko for $16.00.

Fire Burning in the Living Room

I may be irrevocably in love with this fire table by Planika Fires. Can you imagine this on a cool fall night? Or maybe instead of candles on date night? I think adding a table top fountain nearby would be perfect. They have outdoor models too, all modern and gorgeous and wish list worthy!

According to Planika Fires, they use a special liquid FANOLA®. The fire is free of smoke or smell and is a biologically clean product of plant origin. Only water vapour and CO2 are emitted - in proportions similar to those contained in the air exhaled by humans.

Their website states "FANOLA®, burning in Planika Fires as well as in other equipment with open fire requires a regular provision of air (room ventilation system in a good working condition). In apartment conditions (with small cubic capacity) a slightly opened window will do."

All I can say is DO WANT!!!

Mushroom Forest Coffee Table

Honestly, I'm not sure if I would consider this adult or kids furniture, but I'm thinking that placing this in my garden would be FAB! Can you imagine how adorable it would look surrounded by flowers and such? What a great place for a tea-party. (Although at $995 per table I'm guessing I'd have to by a box of $1.99 Lipton)

Pile of Books - Table

Functional and Intriguingly beautiful Book Table!

I absolutely adore this. I'm currently working on a way to 're-do' this on the cheap! I love the cubbies.

Global Bazaar

I STILL Love Target....

To go along with my past "budget furnishing" post, I have decided to post my severe weakness for the Global Bazaar at Target.

This years Global Bazaar is being listed by color rather than location. I love that!! Make sure you check out their website to see some of the cool things you can look at. Below were my three favorite (I so want the Red!)




I did a little research. For me to get the same look in my living room I'd have to spend roughly $1762.80. Not great, but not too darn bad, really!!

Budget Furnishings -

Since I'm on a tight budget as of late, I think its important to add a few of the "budget furnishings" I've found around in the less pricey stores (Yes, Walmart... I hate the fact that you need to disinfect yourself after exiting the store, and that you always run the chance of contracting some hideous skin disorder by shopping there, but it's CHEAP dammit!)

Simply amazing. Tree bed from slmetalworks.

Lucite Love!

These chairs from sipuredesign are simply incredible. Sipure Design represents many of Europe’s top contemporary lines.

Seriously.

I do get the Modernist feel.. the whole idea that beauty is in the eye of the beholder.. but seriously.

Who wants to feel as if they're being smothered by huge boobs, and have their feet up on a ball of yarn? Ok... perhaps a slightly pervy knitting nut... but.. well.. ew.
