The Balloon X LAMP by Haoshi Design brings you back to your childhood, when holding a balloon was such a joy… though temporary, as the balloon would sometimes float away or fade the next day. Haoshi’s Balloon lamp is a reminder of these sweet memories, except it won’t fade or disappear.

I found this Dining Etiquette 101 image on Pinterest today and it got me thinking about the way I dine – and the way people I typically dine with dine. I definitely don’t follow all of these rules – do you?
I certainly don’t use my fork as a pusher when eating dessert. Nor do I tear my pieces of bread up into small pieces and butter them one by one – I dip the whole piece in some olive oil and scarf it down!
On the flip side, these are definitely good things to know. I like the way you’re supposed to eat soup – that’s very proper. The complete place setting is also appreciated, because I’m not always good with that. Just remember – fork and left have four letters, knife, spoon and right have five letters.
What do you think about Dining Etiquette 101? Do you or those you dine with need a crash course??

Materials: Ikea nightstand (Rast), saw, Watco Danish Oil, 4 table legs, 4 angled top plates with screws, furniture oil, sand paper, tape measure, pencil, screw driver Description: This little Ikea nightstand has been in our family for 30 years and has been through three kids. By the time it got to me it was covered in water stains, chipped veneer and scribbles. But the bones of it were perfect – a little drawer to hide away ugly things like cellphone chargers and ample room for books, clocks, lamps and knick-knacks. This project took about a week and is completely doable in a small apartment. They don't sell this exact nightstand anymore but you can get the same effect using the Ikea Rast Nightstand , minus the drawer

The Louxor lamp reminds me of those bug zappers, except this one attracts design enthusiasts, not bugs.

During the 2011 London Design Festival, Object & Line launched the Moss Table, an experimental table that uses plants to generate energy on a micro level. Based on the research of Cambridge University designers and scientists exploring how moss and algae can be used to power lights and other small scale domestic products, the moss table may one day be able to power your beside electronics, such as lamps or alarm clocks. What would you use plants to power?
