This vintage Steiff chicken is fantastic.  Not that I really need a stuffed chicken when I have live ones, but great condition.

My next ring will be wood.  I think this site is great.  Wish I would have known about them 4 years ago.  Chicago-local.

I don’t know why we received the Frontgate catalog, but we did.  And everything in it was ridiculous - except for this recliner.  Super lightweight and portable.  I think it would be perfect for the city backyard.  At it isn’t completely horrible looking.  $129 for the standard.

Another from House 8810 - I think this device will be perfect once we get our laundry moved up to the second floor.  Clever design and great industrial aesthetic….$90.

I’ve made several banners for people for their birthdays, usually felt or leather, but I like these printed ones.  A real opportunity for the future.

Also, this store House 8810 is fantastic.  Lots of great and crafty gift ideas.

By the founder of Dwell Studio, this home book which pushes for less professionally-designed decor could be great or could be more of the same.  It is a profile of 20 homes, telling people how to use their own personality in their spaces…

I have a pair of Toms I use as house slippers, but this summer I want one to wear out-of-doors as well.  Am thinking this natural canvas one would be most versatile…

I think this front basket will definitely be among one of the next things I buy for the bike.  Just need to decide on the size. They are all a very reasonable price at Public.

I missed out on the Eames stamps a few years ago, not thinking to get a full sheet and frame it. So I am very much interested in these “Pioneers of American Industrial Design” that come out this summer.  Will definitely buy a commemorative sheet.
