The Things, 06/01

On wall-mounted storage, pearl-embellished coasters, a pair of nesting garden trugs.

Here’s what I’m thinking about too much these days:

• I would do anything for these coasters.

• My latest Etsy rabbit hole? Wall-mounted magazine racks. How nice is this one, esp. in bright yellow?

• Speaking of, really love this lil guy.

• John Waters, living angel, wrote a novel — grab your signed copy via the coolest store ever, Atomic Books.

• In order to continue romanticizing my community garden plot (did I mention I have a plot in my local community garden this season? lol) I need this set (of two!) Sussex garden trugs for harvesting my spicy salad mix.

• This shirt illustrated by Seth Bogart is v. cool. I also like this no-nonsense choice.

• Sure, I already have a mounted cabinet in my bathroom, but wouldn’t this look so great on the wall, holding only Band-Aids (in every size known to man) and a tube of off-brand Neosporin?

• It’s been quite rainy here.

• These promising, fabric-ready pastel dye sticks are on the way to my home — I plan to deface a plain fabric lampshade this weekend.

• This wonderfully quiet and powerful A/C is already improving my hot-weather mood.

Thanks for reading! Anything speak to you? Got recommendations? Hit reply; I want to hear from you.
