I love when art is functional like this coffee table, whose base is made from an old plane engine. Currently on display at Decoratum Gallery in London, the Cylinder Radial Engine Table is made from a US Army Boeing-Stearman PT-13 engine acquired from the Canadian Museum of Flight, Langley, British Columbia. Constructed between 1936 and 1938, the innovative piece features a simple clear glass top so you can see through to the complex engine workings below. The table can be purchased through Decoratum Gallery

What happens when you take ten designers based in London and you leave them for one week inside an empty factory in the Dutch countryside? This is what… Having successfully carried out a similar project in 2005, Arco invited ten Okay Studio designers (a collective of RCA graduates) to experiment with their state-of-the-art machinery and see what they could come up with – this time based from the factory, and in just a week. They were challenged to make something from wood that was completely different from anything in the current Arco catalog. The resulting prototypes are displayed in “The Garage” just off Brompton Road from September 17-25th for the London Design Festival

How cute and clever is this door mat?

It sweetly invites guests in and then tricks them with a quirky message to go away! I wonder how many people would actually notice the message when leaving. Probably not many! Especially if this fun and funky doormat was in front of one of these awesomely colorful front doors shown below.

What do you think about these colorful front doors? Could you see yourself with a whimsical door in a vibrant color or would you rather spruce up your front door with the funny welcome mat?

Materials: Antonius shelf, Ekby Stödis brackets, Hessum doormat, screws, metallic L-brackets, white paint, pole, jute rope, floor protectors, small nails Description: Since I think most cat-clawing furniture are both really expensive and ugly I decided to make my own. 1.Take the Antonius shelf and cut it in three or how many “floors” you want for your cat. I measured two shelves after about half of the doormat and let the last piece become the bottom plate

Streamers as decor for parties have always been versatile for any age. They’re affordable, colorful and add quick pizzazz to any room or venue. And, now decorating with streamers when you’re entertaining doesn’t have to be in the same old twisted across the ceiling way that we’re used to.

As Martha Stewart shows us in the first image, you can line streamers across a table to make a fun table cloth and then wrap the leftovers around jars to create matching candle holders as table decor.

Or, you can still hang streamers across the ceilings and tables yet you can add flavor to them by manipulating them. You can cut the edges of streamers to have fringe, or throw them through the sewing machine to create cute ruffles. Or, you can also make your own streamers by cutting paper to create zig-zag streamers.There are so many ways to spice up streamers for your next party, no matter how old the guest(s) of honor are.

How do you decorate with streamers?
