gift boxes by Iittala






With the holidays ahead you can't get enough inspiration for gifts. Most of you probably already know Iittala from it's beautiful glass and tableware collection.



Iittala started as a glass factory and today it offers a collection of objects that are made to last a lifetime. They don't just create beautiful objects but believe in timeless design that will never be thrown away. All the Iittala products can be combined in so many ways depending on your taste and style.



For the upcoming holidays Iittala offers the perfect gift by 3 unique gift boxes with different themes: A toast to us, Let's enjoy good taste and Light up your life. We used the products from the box Light up your life for the above pictures. The box contains the Alvar Aalto bowl (designed in 1936!) and 3 different glass candle holders. The beautiful color blue, shapes and details makes this an ideal gift for someone special.



You can find all the gift boxes here and with the 3 different themes there is a perfect box for everyone.

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

I hope everyone has a lovely Thanksgiving! I am grateful for all of you and for your friendship!



Bad ideas in baby fashion




Found these yarns in the clearance bin last week and wondered who had the brilliant idea to dress babies in camo -- particularly pink camo. Although maybe a pink camo sweater would complement the pink gun that you'll no doubt want to get her for her third or fourth birthday.



Besides, the color combinations are ugly, if you want my professional opinion.



For feminine weaponware, perhaps you would prefer this camo colorway, which has its own trademarked name: Muddy Girl Camouflage.
