Beautiful, unique placements, that do something good for the environment, and give you a topic of conversation for dinner - what more could you ask for.

Available in black or color for $15.99 through Abe's Market.

Log & Squirrel

Log & Squirrel is a super cute planter with training wheels. It is self watering (put the water into the bottom of the pot and it absorbs through an interior wall to the soil as needed). Plus, the squirrel disappears out of the hole to indicate that you need to add more water.

The Four Icon Challenge

Visual designer Kyle Tezak successfully summed up a series of blockbuster movies into four simple (and wonderfully executed) icons each. Not an easy task. Prints of The Four Icon Challenge are available for $16.

My favorite is The Big Lebowski.  The thumb icon just makes me smile.
