object d'crave is being re-imagined ... be back in a second.

i love strong details, especially strong cephapodian ones. this lovely octopus vase is $40 at feel more human.

you gon hurt yo back

this $10 baby tote from bagladies just puts it out there what you're carrying around in there. i think this is perfect both for irreverent moms and vulgar dads.

you are a mere pawn

one of my favorite threadless designs has been reprinted ... click the picture above.

girlpowerafrica zine

please consider this zine. "350 preview copies of this book will be sold at $10 for this weekend only. Proceeds from the sale of this book this weekend will go directly to Odette Umurerwa, the care of her daughter Grace and the Girl Power Rwanda Trip (May 18-27)."

in lieue of red paint you can sport these ...

get these buttons from rue st. denis in NYC to make a statement and ward off the best intentions of PETA. word on the street says call 212-260-3388 to order. Medium button is $15, large button is $20.

custom order

vicki ambery-smith makes custom silverware and jewelery based on buildings and architecture, my favorites being these rings. the one on the right could also function as a pretty great set of brass knuckles (and i think i've found the commission to request if i ever attend a thug renn faire ...) -- also, check her list of outlets.

want

i'm seething with jealousy. please feast your eyes on this "labyrinth aquarium," which goes for a mere $5500 at opulent items.

kerplunk

these spash-themed bowls at MoMA are $40 for a set of three, and while i think the "splashiest" one is the best i do think these would look great for a sushi set up like they've gone for or maybe a salsa trio?

i want 2!

today's a woot off...'ware the impulse purchases.

music nerd sale

20% off the entire books & design section at turntable lab. including this poster by finest elements ($24 marked down from $30).

"you're strange and wonderful"

so i heard of zeichen press from a post over at moue magazine. zeichen is having a "buy five get 1 free sale" so head on over. most cards are around $4, like this one above.

for the wall

these ready-to-hang "lak hooks" are pretty sweet .... on sale at urban outfitters for $4 a pop (down from $6), you can't actually pick the colour you get, so i'm gonna buy two and hope for the best.

no sale but ...

there's some genius designs at threadless at the moment. click the images below to head over to the site, ya hear?

may 11th

if your relationship with your mother is just so, you might be able to harness the genius of this mother's day card. i, on the other hand, can't quite get away with calling my mom a "crazy old bitch." props to jeanfrancisbean. $3.50. there's a few other off-colour mother's day cards there too.

pulp

i'm not sure if i stumbled upon these magnets ($8) by radpanda at etsy on my own or through some other blog's tip, but, she basically makes cool magnets out of EVERYTHING. i'm pretty sure these images are similar to the chronicle books pulp comic postcard set, which i love as well.

what was i thinking?

so these photo albums are absolutely genius, albeit (as many nice things are) quite pricey at $25 a pop. the fake book covers have the following titles ... Friends and Family (in forest green), Travels Near and Far (brown), Memories (brown), Our Grandkids (maroon), Top Dog (maroon), What Was I Thinking (forest green), and I Can't Remember (maroon). from bas bleu.
