OMG Pantone dessert swatches from Atypical A
Pantone dessert swatches:

These Pantone swatch inspired sweets by Emilie Griottes are one of the coolest things I’ve see in a long time. For some seriously gobsmacking (not to mention lipsmacking) food styling and photography, be sure to swing on by to her blog (it’s in French, but the images speak for themselves).

charming old signs! "Marc Shur: Sign Language" from Design Work Life
Marc Shur: Sign Language:
Marc Shur maintains Sign Language, an impressive set of vintage signage photographs (as well as their locations) on Flickr—definitely a great inspirational resource.

wtf....."Beater Whisk" from Better Living Through Design
Beater Whisk:
So smart. This whisk by Ding3000 can be folded together to save space in your kitchen drawer. A small ring serves as the opening and closing mechanism and can be used to hang the whisk as well. Looks like it would be easy to clean (it’s nylon), and, if that’s not enough for you, check out all the colors available: white, grey, light blue, nude, lavender, pink, mint and dark blue.
-11 x 0.8 inches
Produced and distributed by Normann Copenhagen.

"technicolor thonet" from Design*Sponge
technicolor thonet:

It’s funny how our perceptions of furniture and things we grew up with can change over time. When I was little, Spode and Thonet-inspired dining chairs were a big part of my parents’ decorating style, and I remember thinking they were tragically uncool. Cut to 20 or so years later, and now I’m starting to appreciate and even want them. Yesterday morning, I spent a few hours hunting down a vintage wooden Thonet side chair (with cane seat — no luck), and I came across these colorful versions instead. While this isn’t quite the look I’m going for, I totally would have given in to the hot pink version a few years ago. All that bright color against such a classic, curvy form looks fantastic. The blue and green versions are sold at DWR ($275 each), and the hot pink one is from ABC Home ($150). So if the worn-out wooden look isn’t quite your bag, maybe these bright versions will be a better fit. I’d love to see a ton of those pink chairs attached to create one giant entryway bench . . . xo, grace
