    Design Foraging: Cloud Illusions, I Recall

    Monday morning, as Mr. Forager & I were leaving home, we both got excited at how grey and blustery a morning it was here in the desert.  A “Northwest kind of day!” we both exclaimed.  Perhaps you might think us a bit odd, but we really miss the grey and the rain.  Cool days spent reading in a coffee shop, wandering through used bookstores and galleries.  Those days just don’t seem to happen here in the desert.  So as I’m finding myself longing for clouds, I rounded up a few artsy finds of the cumulus variety!

    Friday Design Finds: I Find You Facet-nating

    Excuse the horrible pun in the title.  I just couldn’t resist! As any jeweler will tell you, cut makes all the difference in bringing out the best in a material.  Just like gemstones, these pieces of functional art are geometrically cut and patterned to take advantage of their materials and create a different view from every angle.
