Take 5: Elevated Pool Floats, Un-disposable Cameras, + More


Adding these luxurious, inflatable pool floats to the top of my wishlist because 1) they’re stunning, and 2) I can only imagine how comfy they might be. Available in rings, singles, or doubles, I love that they double as sun loungers! While I usually go for something like stripes, this Dragonflower print stands out beautifully. Doesn’t it just scream “luxury”?!

I’ve said before that I’m a sucker for checkers, so I immediately fell in love when I came across this lampshade by @lailasdotter. Every piece she creates is carefully hand-painted and shaped using acrylic glass. While they look extremely fragile, they’re almost unbreakable! She’s also got a fun mix of wall art and sculptures available, but what caught my eye second most? Her bowls and, more importantly, their names! (I don’t think I’m allowed to type it out here, so you’ll have to head to her site to see for yourself!)

Disposable cameras are fun and convenient, but their one-and-done nature leaves a lot to be desired. Fotofoto is an eco-friendly alternative made from upcycled camera cores that would otherwise end up in landfills. Not only can you mail back your cameras for development and processing, but the cameras are then inspected for reuse, creating a fully circular model. Now you can enjoy the joys of shooting film, guilt-free!

Once upon a time, I went through an addictive puzzle phase. While the feeling of placing that last puzzle piece brought a huge sense of achievement, it quickly faded when I had to break it all apart. With these Puzzle Planters, you can have your cake and eat it too! A fun way to get your fix and keep it displayed, these puzzles can be assembled to house your plants without the need for glue.

My usual preference is to stick to neutral everything, but these ceramic sets might have changed that for me. They’re so uniquely shaped and I was instantly drawn to their vibrant color palettes. I never thought tableware could look so beautiful, but seeing these pieces all carefully arranged together, I would have mistaken them for art!
