"Attn., Angelenos: make your own hand-built vase (and other workshops). Still looking for a gift for the moms and mother figures in your life? Look no further. (Alternatively, Margot suggests breakfast delivered on a bentwood tray, such as Alvar Aalto's Siena Tray or a Josef Frank design from Svenskt Tenn.) File under Niche Interests: a delightful little book on the humble tea towel."
"Intrigued! The early 20th-century folk woodworking technique known as tramp art, "carved from layered scraps of wood," over at John Derian (hat tip: Margot). And a new exhibit in NYC is inspired by the idea that, embellished with patterns and paint, "everyday, unremarkable furniture and objects become revelatory.""
"Annie's bookmarking this list of Scandi retreats for future trips (the ones in Norway especially). Ooh... We love when gardening and fashion worlds collide. See Niwaki's just-launched limited-edition collection of camo-print gardenwear here."
"We are big fans of Pamela Anderson's garden goddess era. Her latest launch: The Garden Within Journal, "a guided journal for tending the self the way you'd tend a garden-slowly, patiently, and with room for imperfection.""
A weekend roundup spotlights design and lifestyle ideas. NYC Design Week is upcoming, with options for attending and for making hand-built vases and other workshop projects in Los Angeles. Gift suggestions include breakfast delivered on bentwood trays, a book about tea towels, and a Netherlands-based artist’s line drawings translated onto ceramics and lampshades. Travel inspiration includes Scandi retreats, especially in Norway. Craft interests are expanded with tramp art made from layered wood scraps. A new NYC exhibit focuses on how patterned, painted everyday furniture and objects become revelatory. Gardening and fashion intersect through limited-edition camo-print gardenwear and a guided journal for tending the self like a garden.
