Hope you had a lovely week, with an even better weekend on the horizon!

Here are some of our favorite things from this week:

• Love the image above? It’s made by Yulia Drodskay using a technique called quilling.
• A messy room paired with a nostalgic Shel Silverstein poem
• Dream of swimming in a pool illuminated with these
• Fill in some spare time this weekend by making these fishtail friendship bracelets
• Or make these easy paint chip designs to add low-cost color to your home
• I’ll be trying either these Chocolate Peanut Butter S’mores or these Strawberry Chocolate S’mores - or both!!

What are your plans for this weekend?

The DOBA lamp was designed by Paulo Neves and Alexandre Kumagai of Gud Conspiracy . Inspired by the traditional Portuguese “Dobadoura,” a tool used to wind skeins of wool, the DOBA lamp has a structure around which you can wind the cord. I’m always a fan of design that makes cords more attractive and easier to manage. Share This: Twitter | Facebook | Discover more great design by following Design Milk on Twitter and Facebook
