Last week, when I talked about six different Christmas trees, I promised something for those who don’t celebrate Christmas. I know I’m a few days behind, but here I am with six different menorahs!

Do you celebrate Hanukkah? If so, what type of menorah do you celebrate with? Do you prefer a more traditional menorah, or would you go for some of the more modern ones, like the first one in the second row above? (It’s made of concrete!)

The menorahs above, from L to R: 1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5 / 6

The Accordion Cabinet by designer Elisa Strozyk and artist Sebastian Neeb is a bookshelf that stands on long legs with a set of flexible doors. Opening and closing the cabinet resembles the folding of an accordion, thus its name. Using wooden textiles, the duo was able to get the look they desired while still allowing the cabinet doors to flex easily

As you know, I love me some modern furniture. But I also don’t mind switching things up a bit every once in a while. So, a few weeks ago when I was introduced to Cymax Furniture, I had no problem spending time (probably too much time) surfing through their website. Needless to say, I was nowhere near bored, as Cymax has tons and tons of products.

You can see above that Cymax has a bunch of modern finds to suit my taste, but I also found plenty of transitional furniture that I would consider putting in my home. (Like a poker table. Who wouldn’t want a poker table? I think I need one!)

One of the main reasons I like Cymax Furniture is that exact diversity. While I typically lean towards more modern furniture, shopping on a site with tons of different options encourages me to have an open mind and expand my horizons to other styles.

What about you? What style of furniture do you typically lean towards? Stay up to date with Cymax and see what different styles their offering by following them on Facebook.

Just wanted to share one last detail of my trip to London last week – the windows at Fortnum & Mason!

Again, my apologies for the iPhone photos. But hopefully you can get an idea of how lovely they are. My favorite is the one with all of the peacock feathers – so glam!

Unfortunately, we arrived to Piccadilly Circus too late to check out the inside of the store, but my mom says it’s fabulous and I hope to visit the next time I’m overseas. Have you ever been?

Hopefully, I’ll be able to check out the the beautiful windows in NYC next. What window displays will you be visiting this holiday season?

Happy Friday! How have the first two days of December been treating you?

After a break from last Friday, it’s nice to be back with a Weekly Six. As always, if you’ve read anything this week you want to share, please do so in the comments! Here are my faves from the past week:

1) Aren’t these Not Knot pillows fun? They’d make a great gift this season!

2) Have you sent out your holiday cards yet? It’s still a bit early, I know but these sparkly letterpress cards are one of my favorites.

3) I might have to order myself some of these delicious-looking chocolates that Oh Joy! was snacking on this week.

4) If you have a second, definitely check out this project called The States, in which the designer fills the outline of each state with something different. I’ll admit, some states were difficult for me to figure out!

5) I need one of these in my office. Gotta look into this immediately!

6) How awesome is this lamp? It’s made from one single sheet of paper folded into a dimensional design.

The beautifully sculpted Eyrie Chair by Dutch designer Floris Wubben is an homage to a natural piece of architecture. Captivated by the structure of a bird’s nest, he designed the seat using steam-bended ash that lay within the base’s organically formed branches.

Cirkel by Daphna Laurens just opened at Galerie Gosserez in Paris, featuring works based on the circle. The design duo of Daphna Isaacs Burggraaf and Laurens Manders, based in The Netherlands, took the basic circular form and experimented with creating lighting, tables and objects all drawn from the same shape. Each piece began as a simple circle, then the form was created and finally, a function was formed. Photos by Roelofs / Daphna Laurens. Cirkel by Daphna Laurens just opened at Galerie Gosserez runs through January 14, 2012.
