IKEA Winner

IKEA seems to have a lot of new kitchen products right now. I bought these great bottles for $2.99 each. They worked out great for serving vodka at my Winter Olympics theme party last weekend. The more of these that you have the better they look together and at $2.99 you can collect as many as you want!

eBay Obsession for the month

My latest eBay obsession is finding vintage board games to style the lower level of my coffee table with. This post on Apartment Therapy from last week details how to find some great board games currently in production.

Good Design To Stick By

People often search for a motto to live by, and others choose to live by design.  I found this wall decal here and think it makes perfect sense to have in my design office! The whole piece is so inspiring!

National Pharmacist Day

Honor your favorite pharmacist today by picking up some wares from Jonathan Adler's druggist collection.  Or pick up one of his pill popping keychains, perfect for storing just one dose of your favorite pick me up.

New Year Dreams

Since resolutions never stick, this year I am going to make a list of dreams for a better new year in 2010!

1) Focus on this blog more by sharing not just my photography but all of the great finds in the design world.

2) Turn Claire Bock Photography into a conglomerate called Claire Bock Design with a new logo soon to be unveiled!

3) Work on my online shop Moderne Maison in a more aggressive way

Winter is Here!

Alt Pick Awards

I entered the Alt Pick awards competition earlier this fall with one of my classic pink photographs and while I didn't win anything, they put up all of the entries into the contest on their website. Here is a link to the site.

New Online Shop

I have launched a shop through etsy called Moderne Maison. Not only am I selling select photographic prints, but some of my letterpress work and stylish vintage finds for the home!

Bangkok

My first stop in my trip to Asia was through Bangkok. We stayed at a swanky modern boutique hotel called the Dream, ate lots of curry, sweat it out through our pores all day long, took a water taxi along a very dirty river, stopped at 7-11's for refreshments often, and topped it off with a night at the Sky Bar on the 64th floor of Bangkok's 2nd tallest building!
