Supermarket - I Feel Like A Number from Melanie Favreau

8 people recommended this item

Description

Hurray for cool protests!!

This is a limited edition pendant, there will be only 100 of them, each one with a different number. You won’t know which number you’ll get, like each time you got to get one and wait…wait…wait…

Milk & Bread from Melanie Favreau

7 people recommended this item

Description

These totally cracked me up because my 96 year old grandmother always keeps these little plastic tabs that you use to secure bread packaging and I always ask her 'why'?

Melanie Favreau has taken them , stamped them with expiration dates, cast them in sterling silver and turned them into jewelry.

what fun!

Red Horseshoe: The Red Book

First to recommend

Description

Red Horseshoe makes some very cool gifty things; my favorite is the Red Book. On the front it says Russian Notebook in Cyrillic. On the back there is ) Roman to Cyrillic alphabet decoder. The prononciation descriptions are not exact, but no matter! This is a well-designed little notebook, and they have a ton of others to choose from, including larger 5x7 notebooks.

Business card holder by Kupé Design for Simplicitas

First to recommend

Description

Love this! I like the spot where your thumb goes to help pull out a card -- that's always where I fumble when giving out my card. I like this sleek Scandinavian design. (via scandinaviandesigncenter.com)

Lindemans Framboise: Lambic Beer

First to recommend

Description

This is one of my favorite beers; a deliciously light beer sweetened with raspberries. Lambics are brewed and fermented in a very specified way in one area of Belgium. The result is a clean, sparkling taste with nice acidic and fruity undertones without being TOO sweet. Lambics are made using several other fruits: peach, apple, etc. Perfect with dessert or an especially savory dish. Or yummy on its own :)

Chimay Trappist Beer

First to recommend

Description

Chimay is made by Trappist monks from the area of yep, you guessed it, Chimay, Belgium. They have several varieties that vary in flavor: from light and full of hops to dark and nutty ales with just the right amount of acidity.
