Since the Winter season brings a lot of sniffles, why not put tissues on display without sacrificing style? Paper Pots allow you to do just that.

Made of durable ABS, the Paper Pot enables you to store tissues in a fashionable way. As shown below, Paper Pots are available in a variety of bright, glossy colors, or in a matte black. To get creative, the Paper Pots work interchangeably, so you can buy two different colors and switch the tops to have mis-matched pots.

Paper Pots are available at MollaSpace for $40 each, plus shipping. They can also be used for toliet paper, if you aren’t a big tissue person!

The Leather Lampshades enable you to figuratively brighten your life while literally brightening up someone else’s. This is due to designer Pepe Heykoop’s collaboration with The Tiny Miracles Foundation. The Leather Lampshades are designed by 20 mothers living in Mumbai, India. Every Lampshade that is sold brings a donation of one month’s fees to a private English school so that the daughters of the 20 mothers can attend. Isn’t that inspirational?

Each of the Leather Lampshades are made from soft lambskin. Their shape is designed to replicate old industrial lamps. As seen in the two images, they are available in two different styles: vertical and horizontal.

Sometimes we need things spelled out for us…other times we just like the way it looks! Seems like both are the case with this Alphabet Furniture from Set26. These oversized letters are available in six different colors: blue, grey, red, yellow, silver and white.

As you can see, they can be used in both residential or commercial settings. They send a message so that visitors know where certain things are, as displayed in the INFO set. Something like DRINK is a great marketing message that encourages customers to keep doing a certain action.

In residential settings, the Alphabet Furniture is an awesome way to personalize a space, perhaps with a name, rather than KID! With shelving space on the back of each letter, they’re a clever way to stay organized while adding some personalized style.

Set26’s website has a configurator that enables you to write out words in the Alphabet Furniture in their six available colors. Check that out here.
