Dominic Wilcox’s latest project is a 30-day creation challenge. Each day for 30 days he will make something and the items that he has completed thus far (he is currently on Day 18) are now on exhibit TODAY through Tuesday in London at Mestakes and Manifestos (curated by Daniel Charny). If you’re in the London area, go check it out. You can also follow his progress on his blog Variations on normal.

I just wanted to post this photo because as geeky as it is, I love it. I found it on Like Cool.
Have a great Labor Day weekend!
Move over wicker, the new picnic basket isn’t a basket at all — it’s a box! Boxsal is a new cardboard picnic box with a handle and fully compostable/biodegradable picnic necessities. Each Boxsal comes with 4 biodegradable trays, 4 biodegradable large bowls, 4 biodegradable small snack bowls, 4 biodegradable knife, fork & spoon sets 4 biodegradable cold cups, 8 recycled napkins and a compostable trash bag. Each Boxsal is produced locally using 100% recyclable materials and earth-friendly inks.
Here’s something to brighten your Monday morning!
London-based design studio Nation brings Facebook into the “real world” by creating a Facebook “Like” rubber stamp. They are now offering the “Like” stamps for purchase in their shop, along with “Like” evil twin that we all wish Facebook would have: the “Dislike” stamp!
This reminds me of the icon notepad — the icon letter and envelope from Brigada Creativa is a cheeky take on a physical letter using well-recognized computer iconography.

For those of you in the US, have a great holiday weekend — we’ll be posting a bit lighter on Monday for the holiday. I’m headed to the Jersey shore now (spare me the jokes!). Hooray for three-day weekends!
Toast It is a cork bread-shaped trivet/coaster from Brazilian design studio Oiti, which is run by Patricia Naves.
I came across this Butterfly tea light holder at Hidden Art Shop and I just thought it was cute.
