@lauren elizabeth I have had the CB2 lamp for going on three years and still love it. It's centered over our coffee table in the living room, has held up great and is the perfect size. Getting it home on the bus in SF was a little brutal but totally worth it.

VEB Orange a store dedicated to selling items from the GDR it's all pretty mod fabulous. I got a set of gorgeous dishes there, white with red polkadots.

To be honest almost every store has wonderful treasures, Berlin seems to be a modernists dream so if you're going, have fun exploring and checking out the little shops along the way

Thank you! I have been trying to figure out how to do this for a while now!

I have a plastic woven rug from 2modern

It has a bit of give so it's nice to walk on and the price means I could get a nice large rug for my living room

Where are all the west coast cities?

Sage! I put it (or homemade sage butter) in so many things that I make on a regular basis.

I have the sparrow clips, they are really cute but don't have a very strong grip. I ended up using them decoratively only.

does this store well or does it all have to be eaten right away to prevent permanent freezing?

I second the tennis ball in the dryer. It makes a huge difference and you get really plump pillows. (the only downside is the ruckus they make!)

Also, am I the only one who was thrown by the picture? I was looking at it thinking, those cases should be dry cleaned!

I love geometric patterns, lately I have been obsessed with hexagons. As a renter I can't do wallpaper, but I did create a great graphic pattern/art installation with ikea mirrors and felt just last week!
