Gearing up for a picnic
Summer is on the way they say, and this weekend marks the first long one here in Canada and unofficially our start of picnic season for the next couple of months. Canada celebrates the Queen's birthday (Queen Victoria) still and the May long weekend, as it's become more casually known, is a time to pull out all the summer gear and head out (weather permitting) for a camp out or if that's not possible, at least to a park for a leisurely picnic. I've been eyeing those bamboo plates and cutlery that's out there now and on my hunts for a portable bar-b-que, I came across some more things to add to my wishlist.

Reclaimed Wood Goods' handmade birdhouses for the soul
We think we finally understand what They Might Be Giants meant. Take a look at these charming birdhouses in the Etsy shop of Reclaimed Wood Goods--handmade by Dal Carstens.
Dal lives in New Orleans, and after Katrina, he could see large amounts of weather-hardy wood like Cypress and Cedar being thrown in the garbage--what a shame to let that good wood go to waste! So he reclaimed the wood and built lodging for the neighborhood birds. It's inspiring to see something beautiful built from disaster. Read More »

What's Selling Now at: MoMA Design Store
No wonder the MoMA Store can't keep these in stock. The Conceal Bookshelves are an affordable and genius way to store books without the space-consuming expense of a traditional bookshelf. Designed by a Pratt Institute student [Ed. Note: That's in my neighborhood! Go Brooklyn!], the wall-mounted unit disappears when topped with a stack of books.
