Eco-Logic Sunday: The Green Between Your Toes.

So. You like green ideas right? You drip when you get out of the shower right? You hate a soggy bath mat and getting wet foot when you get those lovely warm socks on correct? Then check this Moss Carpet out. This carpet, literally made of growing moss - is designed by the brilliant La Chanh Nguyen. The humidity of the bathroom and the droplets of water that fall from you when you get out of the shower waters this carpet and keeps it alive. Easy right!?

I would love to know how to get one of these and man, would I like to shake La Chanh Nguyen's hand!

Welcome it: Type Hype!

If you're into some type on a Sunday morning...why not welcome it directly onto your coffee table? I LOVE this table...

...and this one, based on an idea by master printer Gerald Lange, The MicroFoundry has designed and arranged for the manufacture of a unique piece of special-interest furniture: the TypeTable.

Ceremonie Tea: Follow-up information...

In regards to the last blog, I finally found where these can be purchased online. It wasn't easy, as far as I can tell by what I've read, Ceremonie Tea is a brand new company and who knows how much they have expanded so far! The site Ceremonietea.com doesn't work correctly at the moment.



Ceremonie Tea Series...


Ceremonie Tea Series..., originally uploaded by RuthieDesigns.

I LOVE this package design for the series of "Ceremonie Teas" by Danny Goldberg studio from Tel Aviv. It's beautiful, simple and very colorful - which draws me right in to take a look at what the product is! It also has some great flavors!

Another unique design for your home...


This beautiful print is by Stephanie Specht, an artist from Antwerp, Belgium. There are only 100 of these prints, and they were just for sale on Tuesday at TinyShowcase.com. Sorry folks, apparently these sold out super fast. They were only 20 dollars! Beautiful work Stephanie! This work really inspires me...

My latest print is here...

I promised I would finish it, and it is here! It's not exactly how I was planning to use watercolors in the background, but I liked the way it turned out... You can also have your own copy of this print by going here or leave me a comment here!
