Suitcase Table
Jun 9th
The same day that I scored a delightful rubber cat at the Hell’s Kitchen flea market, John picked up a fun foldable table.
As you can see, the sides of the case become the tabletop, and the seats unfold from the inside to make a picnic-style table. Pretty cool! It would be even cooler if the table weren’t kind of rickety-feeling when you sat on it, and if it wasn’t reealy heavy when folded up.
Prizes, Anyone?
Jun 7th
I’ve already blogged about a couple of the amazing prizes in store for the winner of this year’s Mochimochi Photo Contest here and here. But wait! There’s more.
Japanese craft books, including the new sequel to the popular Sock and Glove:
Fun fabrics, straight from Japan:
Adorable bacteria characters:
An assortment of patches and buttons (the beetles are my personal favorite):
…and more! So check out the full contest details on how to enter. You have until July 31st!
Copy That
Jun 5th
I usually seem to catch up with new music about 1-2 years after it’s released, so I’m happy to have found a great album a mere two months after its debut.
Listening to Cut Copy’s new album In Ghost Colours feels kind of like cheating, it’s so listenable. It makes me think of a tree somewhere that grows songs, and Cut Copy just went and picked their favorites before anyone else got to them.
If you, like so many of us, are a sucker for the retro 80s vibe, you should pick this one up. That is, if you haven’t already in the past two months.
Grass in Stop Motion
Jun 3rd
Annie, an avid knitter of Grass, recently sent me a video that she and her friend made about a grassy adventure in the front yard.
Annie says they “failed” at the stop motion, but I think they did a fine job, and the video is hilarious. (I especially love the smoking scenes!)
Maybe next year’s photo contest will have to include a category for video…
