A selection of design deliciousness. I wonder if I’ll find any of them under our tree on Christmas morning (hint hint!)…

2. Kranium. I just love this little wooden skull with a secret compartment “for keeping memories”. Available from Acne Jr.

3. Pia Wallen Cross Tray. Available at Pia Wallen.

4. Handmade felt dome cushion. Gorgeous quality (and I’m not just saying it!) and all handmade using pure Merino wool by my sister in a tiny Welsh village. Available at Knitnations.

6. Leff Amsterdam Tile25 Clock. Available at Design55.

7. ‘YES’ print in sizes A3 and 50 x 70cm. Custom colours and other sizes available upon request. Available…ahem…in my Etsy shop Yumalum.

Happy Christmas shopping!




I’ve always had a bit of thing for calendars and I’m loving the above vintage examples from a selection over at Grain Edit. My favourite all time calendar has to be the Stendig below which was designed in 1966 by Massimo Vignelli and taken that year into the Design Collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York. I just love staring at that big old hunk of black and white Helvetica. David has bought me one for Christmas for the last two years so I’m hoping that tradition carries on year after year…
