On The Ball
On The Ball ?
Well, obviously not, because I've never seen these unusual wooden figures before but I will definitely be following Swiss design studio Small Stuff from now on.
Pepe founded Small Stuff to colloborate with local and international artists, designers and illustrators on limited-edition designer toy & gadget products. His figures are all sculpted, carved, molded, cast, painted and packaged by hand in his studio.
Check out Pepe's blog to learn more about his latest fun ArboRobot creations, Ramble & Roam, made with london-based toy designer Cris Rose.

I know, It's Monday and you're feeling glum
Perhaps a little tetchy ?

Dot Mania
You know I love spots,
Have an eye for all things quirky
So you won't be at all surprised to know I love
It's wonderful to see Lili Scratchy's daughters' drawings on the tees and pillows in this new Australian trans-seasonal collection. Rose and Lison (age 5 and 10 respectively) are talented little artists who always make me smile - remember?
A little birdie told me that Fifi The Poodle is the start of something very special too...

Give Me Three #54
Summer time
In early October
It feels like it anyway
Precious moments
In the sun
Before the leaves
Fall, fall
Again
Pottering here and there
In the house
Cleaning, thinking
Organising home and mind
Do you do that?
It does me good
From time to time
Contrast
White against black
Or white against white
Same difference...
I'm a simple girl at heart and
I love today's fleamarket finds!
