an honest-to-goodness design affair

Christmas has come and (barely) gone, and if you are at all like me, you have already been assaulted by the pangs of post-gift-giving revelation. You know the feeling: you’ve thought for days about what to buy for your difficult friend or familiy member; you find something perfect; you present them with your find with pride; and then the next day, casually browsing, you stumble across something 10 times cooler and realize your gift pretty much sucked.

I can’t offer any consolation, but I can, however, offer you my company, since we’re quite possibly sitting in the same boat. Christmas comes only once a year, but we’ll have better luck at the next one, right?

1. Whisky Barrel Flooring by McKay Flooring Limited - The best thing about the whiskey barrel flooring is the faint hint of oak and vanilla when you press your nose against the boards.

2. VIN Jackets by Platinum Dirt - Wear your favorite ride in style. Sadly, I don’t think they make it in Chevy.

3. Railraod Spike Hook by Hipcycle - Need a towel rack af-ter that refreshing Dead Sea salt soak? Skip your chick’s colored acrylic—reach for the railroad nail jutting out of your bathroom wall. Even John Henry need-ed a good cleanse ev-ery now and then.

4. Nailed It Desk Or-ganizer by Fred Con-lon from Uncommon-Goods - Made from discarded steel and tool parts, this desk ac-cessory will entertain you at your dullest mo-ments at work.
