Ceramic Heart Hand
By Analuisa Corrigan for Maimoun

Rainbow Mini Vase
By Maria Ida Designs
$50
Vancouver-based Maria Struk makes beautiful, super fun glass ware. These vases are a personal favorite.

I love this mushroom shape. I wanted to buy a vintage mushroom lamp off marketplace - my husband convinced me not to, it sold, and now i regret it every time I see these.
Salt & Pepper Candle Holders
By Ash Chen
$100
Amazing candle sticks and vases. So many beautiful, whimsical, mysterious kind of alieny shapes, and then the colors and patterns only add to it. I spent two days staring at these at In Todo and they haven't left my mind since.

We're working on a flower collection for SS 24 and Eny Lee Parker's super playful lights feature heavily on our moodboards.

Weighted blankets are super helpful for sensitive and hyperactive kids. Maybe all kids?
