To die for.
One of my favorite wallpaper retailers, Ferm Living, has a few new things in store that I'm really loving. First of all, I think the way this Sewing Kit Wall Sticker ($57.50) is staged is absolutely hilarious. I think it would be clever to use it around a window or doorway in your home, especially one that doesn't have a lot of molding. See a few other new things when you read more Read more
Cause everyone needs to know when their coffee mug is on or off, there is now a visual indicating On-Off Mug that reads "off" without liquid and "on" when filled with a warm bevy. A special heat-sensitive pigment will turn the mug from black to white as the temperature increases, so you not only get your morning cuppa joe, but you get a magic show as well. Each mug is dishwasher safe and costs Read more
Microwave my tea? No way! Having a cup of tea isn't just about drinking the hot, soothing liquid, it's about the whole experience of actually making your tea. Tea time is about taking some time for yourself, choosing the perfect aroma of tea to suit your senses while you wait for your kettle to quietly whistle as it warms. I love to cup the warm mug between my hands and smell the sweet steam Read more
There are many things that excite me about CasaSugar, and one of them is the site's logo. I absolutely love the salmon and brown color palette. (It's okay for me to brag about it, since I didn't design it.) Anyway, I'm pleased to announce that the ShopSugar store on CafePress is now stocking CasaSugar gear! There are tons of cute clothes (I particularly like the ringer tee) as well as lots of Read more
I have a thing for little birds, they're pretty darn cute and add a nice rustic flair to modern elements. They're also pretty trendy right now, which is okay in my book. Yesterday I saw this lovely bird jug and mug set and just swooned. The mug is £4.95 ($10) and the jug is £19.95 ($40). What do you guys think, love it or hate it?

There's not much to say about the Taz Ah mugs from Generate (and designer Attua Aparicio Torinos), except for that I love, love, love them. They're available for $29 each and come in three options: pig nose, dog nose and rabbit nose. I think they're perfect for when you don't want to seem too serious. What about you guys, what do you think? Taz Ah Animal Face Mug - Love it or Hate it? Read more
Winter is still rearing its cold and dark head, and if your neck of the woods isn't as toasty as you'd like it to be, try warming up with a hot beverage instead of turning on your radiator. Your coffee or tea (or Captain Picard-style hot toddy) will taste even sweeter in one of these geeky mugs. Cin cin, baby. Cin cin. Read more

We all know that green tea has many benefits — eye health, sunburn protection, and disease prevention, to name a few. Now, a new study can add another possible benefit to that list: green tea may help you remain functional as you age. The Japanese study, published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, tracked 14,000 adults 65 years old or older for three years and found that those Read more
