Yesterday, Juniper (my favorite work partner) and I headed into Manhattan to check out David Stark's Wood Shop. David and Haus Interior's owner Nina came together to create a month-long "shop ambush" in Nina's shop. David and his team designed an astounding 75 different products inspired by a wood shop theme. It's like a wood wonderland in there. I found myself wishing I had a shelf in our kitchen to set a wooden cupcake or pie. Imagine that box of wooden bonbon chocolates or a bowl of the wooden nickels on a coffeetable — so cute! The crochet saw pillow (made by a women's cooperative group in Bolivia) made me smile, too.
And of course, David designs the coolest clocks ever. (Remember these?) The Wood Shop clocks are one-of-a-kind, so you won't find them online. I want that broom clock for my kitchen! Most of the collection is available online here. The shop runs through the month of February. If you're in the area, I definitely recommend checking it out in person. Even if you don't walk away with a wood treat for yourself, it's so much fun to browse through the shop.
Juniper was a big fan of Wood Shop (and David Stark, she was staring at him the whole time!). And wood is one of her favorite things to suck on, after all. :)
