Ellepi Steel Book Ends

Chic, low-profile Italian design. Choose minimalist black or a fun pop of color—either way you win! And your books won’t fall over anymore.

Using a match to stabilize a candlestick

I’ve never met a candlestick that fits comfortably in a candle holder so I nestle a match at the base to hold it in place. As dinner party conversation and candles wind down, it’s fun to watch the very instant when the candle flame meets the match. So it doubles as entertainment.

HAY’s colorful toothbrushes

Because if you must brush your teeth (and you must!), then you might as well enjoy looking at this twice daily tool for living.

Marvis toothpaste

I pick this up whenever I see it and keep it out in our tiny, less used (but more public?) parlor bathroom along with a nice tooth brush. It tastes great, looks great and when someone is (often) occupying our only full bathroom I have a nice back-up option for getting those teeth brushed.
