roygbiv

the other day I got an email about Steve Kiester's terra cotta ware, which is hand-made from recycled materials, reasonably-priced, and comes in every color of the rainbow...mugs, tumblers, bowls, and even shot glasses are brought to life with food-safe glaze and are dishwasher/micro-friendly.


then I came across this photo (but now I can't remember where I found it- help?) which I totally love. it's just a brown thrift-store planter that's been given the rattle-can treatment. I think the drips began as an accident, but they obviously make the piece look super rad...

I wish my jade plant was that thick and strong. mine is frail and wimpy. anyway, just wanted to share pretty things with your pretty faces.

UPDATE: lovely reader Anna (who's blog is actually called roygbiv), reminded me that the planter was found on the Old Brand New blog. so there ya go.

Here's the link to the planter page and it was also featured on Apartment Therapy recently.
