I’m skipping another Weekly Six this week, due to all of the holidays, but they’ll be back in action again next week! And since decluttering is still on my mind from yesterday, I started thinking about all of the other areas in my life that I could declutter – and really, the only major thing aside from my home would be my car!!!!

My car doesn’t quite look the one above – does yours? Usually I keep my car pretty empty – but its the trunk that is the worst part. I’m starting to wish that I had a van – because I could keep it as organized as possible, thanks to this awesome van racking I found. This would actually be perfect for my fiance, who has a van for work. It’s always a mess and this would organize it right up!

Maybe I could fit some of those van racks in my trunk somehow. Until then, I’m going to plot my life decluttering plan – from home to my car to my fiance’s van!

Have you thought any more about decluttering your life?

Golf  J. Charinrattana of Studio248 will launch his first collection under the name  Golf.studio248 at this year’s upcoming imm cologne . The idea for the Cutting Edge Chair is derived from the unique joint between two materials: steel and teak. The steel rod is designed with specific” voids” to lock the wooden structure in place. The joint is made more interesting by the slicing of the wood to draw attention to the beauty of wood’s surface.

The Claudio chair is inspired by a specific architectural element – the arch. Barcelona based architecture office Arquitectura-G designed the Claudio Chair for Indoors as an homage to the repetitious and beautiful curvy arch we all know and love. Arches are more structural elements than aesthetics, but they just so happen to be functional as well

At first, I took a look at this wall-mounted shelving system and thought, “so what? It’s just a bunch of boxes.” But it’s not. Read on… Created by Korean designer Sehoon Lee , this set of wall boxes does the unexpected. The boxes are actually hinged together so that they can flex and move around each other into different shapes. If you can’t really picture how it works in your head, luckily, there’s a video: Share This: Twitter | Facebook | Discover more great design by following Design Milk on Twitter and Facebook

Hope you all had a wonderful New Year’s! The weather here in New Jersey is getting colder and colder, so today’s Product Pick is something that will warm us all right up!

The Flock of Chairs is designed by Melle Koot and is made from sheepskin found on sheep in the Netherlands. Each cover varies, so no two chairs are alike. The frame of each chair is made from a mixture of native elm, maple and oak woods.

I love the simplicity of these chairs that is amplified by the beautiful sheepskin. These would look great in my living room!

What do you think of the Flock of Chairs?

Happy New Year’s Eve!

Are you staying in tonight or headed out? I’m headed out, although these festive tablescapes are making me wish I was staying in! Last year I did and we had a great time decorating, cooking and drinking champagne. Not that there won’t be champagne this year!

There are just so many little and exciting details that go into a New Year’s Eve tabletop that are easy – like using the party noisemakers as part of the centerpieces and adding clocks around the table. Anything with glitter and/or sequins works for New Year’s too! Do you see the last image has watches as napkin rings? How cute is that!?

If you’re staying in this year, what fun details are you incorporating into your night?

We do about 50 Friday Fives each year so we can’t review them all, but let’s take a look back at our favorite 10 (in no special order): Jacob Granat  - We love that he chose five inspirational people. After spending three winter seasons snowboarding in Chamonix, France, and a year in Hanoi, Vietnam working with students, Swedish designer Jacob Granat started his own company importing and selling furniture, lamps and textiles back in 2006. He quickly realized that selling them wasn’t as much fun as making them himself, so he enrolled in a cabinet-making course, then in university. Now, freshly degreed in furniture design, Granat showed his line ”The Sound of Forest” at the Stockholm Furniture Fair and Superstudio Piu, Milan this year. Søren Rose  - Every item he chose is a joy to look at

There’s nothing like the holidays to inspire one’s inner Martha Stewart. But who needs to get all New England? New Year’s Eve, after all, is more glitz and glam than country baked ham
