Designer and architect Reinier de Jong has just released the versatile REK coffee table . The table grows and adapts to your needs. For example, when you’re not entertaining, perhaps you’d like to close it up, but when guests come over, you might want to move the sliding parts outwards to accommodate extra drinks and plates. Or, you can keep the sliding sections and store magazines and other things underneath. Share This: Twitter | Facebook | Discover more great design by following Design Milk on Twitter and Facebook .

Materials: Ikea Dave, 1/4″ wood insert, furniture tabs, Induru tripod, Manfrotto Joystick Tripod Mount Description: I immediately enjoyed the use of Dave once assembled. However, after some use I discovered it was not as stable as I would have liked. Meaning, it was not meant for leaning or piling extra accessories on. Then, my kids had their fun with it and put it to its test. I thought it would be ok for my son to use as a Lego platform for a day

Happy Groundhog Day! As you probably have heard by now, Punxsutawney Phil saw this shadow this morning, signifying six more weeks of “winter.” I say “winter” because it’s been in the 60′s the past few days! How has it been where you live?

I know it’s not an important – or realistic – holiday, but Groundhog Day fascinates me. I can’t get it to load right now – but I was looking at Groundhog.org earlier – and they have a Groundhog Club that had their annual Groundhog dinner last night. I think Phil was there. I think I may have to join.

Anyway, if you’re as fascinated as I am – send a Groundhog Day card to someone you love. Or to me, I don’t care! I didn’t even know they had Groundhog Day cards, but sure enough – here’s six different ones for ya!

#1 – #2 – #3 – #4 – #5 – #6

What are your thoughts on Groundhog Day?

Tom Dixon was born in 1959 in Sfax, Tunisia and moved to England when he was four years old. Having been educated in London, and completed a six-month stint at Chelsea Art School, a career in music followed before a motorcycle accident provided him with the time and welding skills that would lead to his design career — a career that has produced some extraordinary designs we’ve come to know and love. Fast-forward a couple of decades, via Habitat, Artek, his own shop, Space, and an OBE for services to design; Tom Dixon the company was born, and the rest, as they say, is history. Chop Rectangle, Chop Long and Chop Paddle, each milled from solid oak with a soft curved edge Tom Dixon was showing for the first time at Maison et Objet this year to launch Eclectic by Tom Dixon, a collection that’s described as “Things that are to play with or give or use everyday, things that are designed and are undesigned, things that are… eclectic.” Clockwise from top left: Hex Bowls, Bash Vessels, Form Bowl Set, Cast Mini Jack Cast Factory, a money box for industrious savers, modeled on a British factory from the Industrial Revolution era, and Cast Shoe, a classic English gentleman’s brogue cast in solid aluminium with a copper plated finish.

Valentine’s Day is just a little bit less than two weeks away and it’s popping up in my mind. I always think about doing something fun and putting together a nice table, dinner, desserts, etc and then I get lazy. So maybe if I start now, I’ll have it all together by February 14th.

To get myself in gear, I rounded up some Valentine’s Day tables and displays for some inspiration. Maybe I’ll search for some printables to make things a bit easier!

What about you? Do you have anything up your sleeve for V-day??
