Seems like napkins ought to be ridiculously easy to sew, yet they drive me nuts. I must have spent at least an hour on this one. I love the look of the little edge on this style of napkin, but somehow sewing them drives me nuts. Am committed to making a whole set of them in Terrain by Kate Spain to give as a gift.
Used a Sugar Town Quilt Co. tutorial for a square table topper, only reduced the size to make a napkin.
This is the Japanese MINO yaki free cup set.
Mino-yaki started about 1300 years ago.
During late 16th century to early 17th century, tea ceremony became popular and special Mino-yaki tea sets were produced for the tea masters who have special preferences.
Mino-yaki is known as playful ware. It features bold shapes, unrestrained decorating and unique glaze.
These characteristics are more likely seen in modern art in the west but asymmetric beauty was already appreciated 400 years ago in Japan.

For the Mid Century Modern Kitchen is this pristine Dansk Kobenstyle IHQ Fondue Pot manufactured in France and designed by Jens Quistgarrd.
The bright yellow enamel pot is marked France and the cast iron base is marked Denmark IQH. She stands 9" high x 7" wide and from the handle she's a full 13" across.
Dansk created this beautifully simplistic Mid Century design to be both elegant and functional; crafting all of their tablewares and pieces using only the very finest workmanship and materials of the time. This amazing set is done in teak and cast iron, with a heavy fired on enamel glass finish, baked over a quality cast steel pot. In the Mid 1960s Dansk kitchenware was in a class all on it's own; simply the very best cooking equipment that money could buy at the time and that's certainly still true today.
This jaw-dropping brilliant canary yellow fondue set is complete and without flaw. It appears to have been used perhaps once, judging by the heat marks in the stainless steel table shield, then tucked neatly away up on an upper pantry shelf and left there for half a century.
The first pieces I've made in ceramic, a cutlery set.

Essas fotos são das primeiras peças que eu fiz na aula de cerâmica :D
Talvez eu demore pra colocar novas fotos por que a professora só queima uma vez por mês - o forno é à lenha, daí dá um pouco mais de trabalho.

René LALIQUE was born on 6th April 1860 and spend most of his childhood in Paris. From a very early age, he showed a desired towards art and a profound love of nature. As an apprentice learning the techniques of jewelery manufacturing, he continued to study art at the Ecole des Arts Décoratifs in Paris. After a short period at the School of Art in Sydenham, England, he returned to Paris to take up sculpture with the well-known sculptor Lequien. He began to design jewelery on a freelance basis and presented his work, which was entirely original in style, to famous jewelers such as Cartier, Jacta and Boucheron. In 1886, he took over the workshop of Jules Destape in Paris, where he was finally able to manufacture his own designs. They were displayed in the windows of the best-known jewelers of the day, where they were met with tremendous success and enthusiasm among the public. He opened a new workshop at 20, Rue Thérèse (in the Opéra district of Paris), where he began to experiment with glass and glass manufacturing. He presented his work at various salons and exhibitions. His talent brought much acclaim and in 1897 he was awarded the prestigious “Croix de Chevalier de la Légion d’Honneur”. In 1909, he opened a glassworks in Combs-La-Ville, to the east of Paris. LALIQUE held his first exhibition in the Place Vendôme concentrating purely on glass. Soon after this, he abandoned jewellery design to focus entirely on glass and glass manufacturing. Construction of the Wingen-sur-Moder factory employing skilled glass masters in the region of Alsace. Its installation was facilitated by President Alexandre Millerand who liked René Lalique’s works very much. LALIQUE’s glass was in such heavy demand that he opened I 1921 a second factory at Wingen-sur-Moder in Alsace, in the east of France. The Paris Exhibition of Arts Décoratifs was held and Art Deco triumphed. For René LALIQUE, 1925 was the summit of his career as a glass artist. At the 1925 exhibition, he displayed a wide range of glass objects including perfume bottles, statuettes, ornaments, vases, bowls, tableware, lamps and architectural panels. The lines were pure, even geometric, but softened with sculptures of flora, fauna and the female form. The LALIQUE style was expressed mainly by the contrast between clear and frosted glass, sometimes with the addition of a patina, enamels, or colouring within the glass itself. During this period, he participated in large scale decorative and architectural projects for the Compagnie Internationale des Wagons-Lits, and others such as the ocean liner “Normandie “ and St Matthew’s church in St Helier, Jersey. He also took part in the great exhibitions held in Paris during this period - the Colonial in 1931, the Rétrospective in the Pavillon de Marsan at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs in 1933, and the Paris World Fair in 1937. He left the Place Vendôme and opened in 1935 a new shop at 11, Rue Royale in Paris. The factory in Alsace was occupied by the German Army during the second world war. René LALIQUE died on 1st May 1945 in Paris without having seen the kilns of his factory re-lit and his works of art once again in production

My sister Deanne Coles-Christensen is a gifted decorator. I helped her shoot these photos of her incredible home in Santa Fe that she’s sadly leaving after ten years. She's moving to Salt Lake City this week.
Deanne’s philosophy as an interior designer is to use her clients’ existing objects — those items with personal history and meaning — rather than purchase a bunch of new stuff. If you could use some of this beauty in your life, hire her. She’s now available for consultations and no job is too big or small.
Two of our favourite staffordshire mugs...
When I met Hanne, we both had a fascination of retro-design, and in those days (about 7 years ago) we were frequent guest at local fleamarkets, but had little cash to spend.
The Staffordshire mugs wasn't hard to find and attracted us with their strong colors and retro-patterns, and they were affordable – about 5 kr (that's a dollar per mug).
So it didn't take long to build a nice little collection, and we still use a selection of the best as...coffee mugs!
They're going to be featured as our favourite object at the blog Rearranged Design.
