Loving Barcelona based designer ConiLab's screenprint 'Do what you Love / Love what you do'. A3 in size it’s priced $35.00 from Coni’s etsy shop. Reading Coni's etsy profile I liked the quote "My chosen technic: completely handmade screen printing… the type of work that makes your hands hurt… and gives you a lot of joy after seeing the printed results!!” So true!

Harriet Damave’s pretty lilttle hand formed porcelain brooch of a rabbit is decorated in the traditional Dutch Delft technique using a tiny amount of cobalt oxide as under-glaze. It is then finished with a strong transparent glaze so the natural color of the porcelain shows then fired at 2300 degrees Fahrenheit.

OMG, I have only just discovered Carbon Design's fantastic concept for the Domino Clock. Subtly abstracting the idea of time, three larger-than-life dominoes are equipped with articulating dots that flip back-and-forth between black and white to keep time. They hang on the wall or stand free, communicating wirelessly as they quietly mark the passing hours and minutes. Should this go into production the Domino Clock will be right at the top of my wish list. Very very clever.
