LARGE POUCH - lines/rain
Bookhou is John Booth and Arounna Khounnoraj, a husband and wife design team residing in Toronto, Canada. Along with their Etsy store they also have a brick-and-mortar shop in Toronto and an online shop of their own here. They design and make items such as handbags, scarves, paper goods, ceramic items, and more inspired by the organic lines and shapes found in nature and urban landscapes. John has been trained in painting, architecture and woodworking, and Arounna started out making sculptural works before changing her focus to design and textile work. Oh, and they also have two little kiddos to raise. Their design aesthetic is that wonderful mixture of modern, urban and organic, filled with those geometric shapes we love so much these days.

Deep End Mug
Clam Lab is Clair Catillaz, currently sculpting, homebrewing, and living in the Greenpoint neighborhood of Brooklyn, New York. She’s been pounding out modern ceramic lovelies for Clam Lab since 2009, but she’s no newbie to having clay-crusted clothes. She and her mom took their first ceramic class when she was 12. I’m not sure how I happened upon Clam Lab but I’ve been drooling over her pieces ever since and pinning them to Pinterest like crazy.
Click here for a great little collection of photographs showing Clair’s process and a wee interview at the end.

Snug Studio is a collaboration between and interior deisgner and an architect based out of Hannover, Germany. Head over to Decor8 here for a lovely article about the pair. You can find their Etsy site here, their official website here, and their blog here!
Their wooden and print designs are simple, modern, but with a child-like whimsy that I love. If I had to buy something right now, it would be the cloud-shaped bread board. I want it.
Many more delightful things in their store! Check it out!

thanksgiving table
Since I’m currently living in the life stage of “always celebrating Thanksgiving in someone else’s house” I can only dream of what my Thanksgiving table would look like. Here’s a little mood board of things from Etsy that I would love to have. The table above is my inspiration. And isn’t it a lovely one?

wanted: additional seating
[poufs]
I am new to the “poufs” (aka. rounded ottoman) world, but my living room is in dire need of additional seating. DIRE need. We have a couch and one thrifted reading chair, leaving a huge expanse of unused space, and more importantly, not a lot of places to sit! Only three to four people can sit comfortably. Floor pillows may be a bit too bohemian for me these days, so I’m thinking … poufs!
My favorites are undoubtedly these woven ones from Urban Outfitters and Ikea, respectively. The Urban Outfitters pouf is no longer available, but the Ikea one sure is. Too bad I like the taller one better … even though it was like $50 more … and is no longer available. Sigh.

Alseda Stool from Ikea
But still, there are some other non-rattan poufs out there that are also nice. These amazing poufs (with feet no less!) are, needless to say, amazing, but I have absolutely no idea where they came from. Probably because I don’t speak French. If you do, check out Jennifer’s lovely blog and let me know!

These lovelies are from Sarah Hepworth’s Etsy store and are made from upcycled sweaters! How cool is that?!
