Not only are the very pretty and are a modern stylish take on the classic reading glasses, they are also functional.
These sit on the top of your head as a stunning headband!
Not only that but opticians recommend these for computer reading as rose colored glasses block our blue or hazy light.

]]>The Small Home or Appartment
There are many things which can be purchased that are useful and stylish , we have seen so many great ideas to find space such as drawers built into staircases or our Boskke hanging planters that do not clutter up your counter or table space. Now the only things we buy are things we use and even then everyone still has many beautiful pieces or styles they want to show.
Here this for instance is a new style cottage which we just find stunning. Nomad Homes - we found them on Indiegogo. Love this house for a small cottage. What do you all think!

With Big Loop yarn even an absolute beginner can complete a large project such as a throw or a rug in a matter of a few hours. Big yarn requires big tools so Loopy Mango developed 25 mm circular knitting needles and crochet hooks just for that purpose. All in one knitting kits that include yarn, knitting tools and an easy to follow pattern are also available. All of knitted garments and home products are designed and hand made in our New York studio.
About the owners: Waejong is the creative force behind everything. She has a German Shepherd named Loopy and an orange cat named Mango. She likes to dress up Loopy in Victorian clothing. Her favorite color is pink. Waejong is very loopy. Anna is the driving force behind everything. She drives everyone crazy. Her favorite color is red. She is Russian after all. Anna doesn't have a dog. Nor a cat. But she is totally loopy.

Each piece is unique. The celebrated tea set, created by
Wilhelm Wagenfeld in 1931 gets to the heart of the design inspired by
the Bauhaus and makes the enjoyment of tea become a sensual experience.
"Form
follows function" – the utility value is the first priority. The design
is simple and thus absolutely timeless. The almost organic forms made
of heat-resistant borosilicate glass are mouth-blown.
The tealeaf can
visibly develop in the teapot. The cup rests harmonically in the hand.
For stylish tea enjoyment at highest level.
Copied lots of times, but still unsurpassed. Today, the EIERKOCH
created by Wilhelm Wagenfeld in 1933 is available in two sizes, the
smallest is just having the size of one egg. In addition the EIERKOCH L
and XXL are successful in the range of products: they are derived from
the original drafts of the designer of the Bauhaus.
In the same way
as any product of JENAER GLAS also the EIERKOCH is not only impressive
due to its distinctive shape and robust handling, but also due to its
versatile usability. It is excellently suitable for the preparation of
eggs in the glass as well as of pies, desserts and Amuse Gueules.
The classic Wilhelm Wagenfeld 1933 design, now available in three sizes,
is ideal for the preparation and presentation of all manner of
starters, desserts and treats.
The Jenaer Glas brand has stood

Just feeling at home on holidays: This smart-looking bistro tableware spreads the flair of the south and is suitable for every occasion. Various cup classics help to illustrate the trend topic "coffee". And even when things get heated at the dining table or in the kitchen, the Italian-looking strength gives the porcelain robustness and resistance. From a broad of range of colours, you can choose your favourite one - ideal for cheerful people who love to set very individual accents.

"The red dot design award dates back to 1955 and is now one of the world’s largest and most distinguished design competitions. More than 14,000 participations from over 70 nations in 2011 alone document the relevance of the internationally sought-after red dot.
In 2012, 1,800 companies and designers from 58 countries registered to the “red dot award: product design” and grabbed their chance to prove their design ability in an international comparison with renowned designers and up-and-coming talents. Within the competition's 19 different categories, a total of 4,515 registrations have been submitted. But only the best were awarded.
With growing competitive pressure on the international markets, it is now more important than ever for manufacturers to set themselves apart from the competition by proving quality rather than simply pursuing an aggressive pricing policy. Designers are also benefiting from the award: they are using the red dot to present themselves to their clients and as a visual aid that emphasizes their own strength.
Already by now, companies and designers from all over the world run the chance to put down their names as potential participants of the “red dot award: product design 2013”. Thus, they will receive exclusive information on the product competition which they can register for starting in October 2012."
Look at the products in the past you will recognize many!
