"A glass that looks like it is filled with milk, but in fact, the inside has a special coating that lights up when you flip the switch. Now, you only have to flip the switch once though, because if you don't want it to be on anymore, just turn it upside down and voila, it's off... Perfect for a nightlight, or next to your bed or in the bathroom, or for the kids or - you get it, there are a ton of usage occasions that you can come up with."

Domestic Bliss

Interesting tea towels, aprons, napkins and more from Julie Haslam and Domestic Bliss:

"Inspiration for imagery came from her grandmothers handwritten recipe book. The old recipe book provided an array of fascinating and enchanting marks. These marks also helped recall many loving memories – something that happens for most when viewing pieces from the collection, a certain mutual sentiment is experienced.      

The collection initially began with ironing board covers and has grown to include draught excluders, tea towels, napkins, cushions and the most recent addition a kitchen apron."

A New Kind of Toaster

This white ceramic toaster is still in prototype mode, but it looks really neat. You can check out diagrams in the 'how it works' section. In the designer's own words:

"There has been little development of the toaster since the start of the century, whilst other appliances have developed and improved incorporating new technologies and thinking, toaster have remained relatively untouched. When the toaster was first invented eating toast was a social activity that took place on the breakfast table, these days toasters have been relegated to cheap plastic objects hidden away in the kitchen landscape. This toaster is designed to engage the user, re-invigorating the social context of toasting by questioning everything about what we toast with today. I was also keen to make playful object to be proud of having on your breakfast table. Slip moulded bone china allowed me create this intricate and sculptural form, but also provided the material longevity that I required. This is a toaster that brings life and joy to a stagnant domestic appliance, and iconic object for the home."
