Etsy find: Guy Michael Davis

Guy Michael Davis is selling this canopy wall sculpture that lets you create a minimal porcelain simulation of a forest canopy in your home or office. I like this idea… he should sell it to Urban Outfitters fast, before they decide to knock it off! You can see more of his work on his blog.

Here is the set that he is selling in his etsy shop:

Here is what it could look like (the options are up to you):

Lart Cognac Berliner

I found Lart Cognac Berliner via Little Otsu, and I really like the delicacy of her work. Lart’s site is just a contact page at the moment, so you should check out her work on Little Otsu for the time being.

Etsy find: Vintage laundry labels

I’m sort of obsessed with this kind of thing… Etsy seller Alpenhimmel found these N.O.S. (new old stock) monogrammed laundry labels at a flea market in the Alps. I’m so jealous. They are a good deal so you should snatch them up.

Darjeeling luggage

Seth and I went and saw the Darjeeling Limited on Halloween, and as much as I love Owen Wilson, Adrien Brody, and Jason Schwartzman, I really felt that the sexy Luis Vuitton luggage was the real star of the movie. The beautiful jungle illustrations on the luggage were provided by Wes Anderson’s brother Eric (gees, too much talent in one family). It is my dream luggage.

I’ve noticed several artists recently who are doing amazing things with paper-folding/origami. Here are a couple.
