Design

Matthew Butler and Helen Punton are two smart cookies. The Zaishu project was established 5 years ago, but they keep it fresh and move from strength to strength.

Using certified sustainable materials, the handprinted designs are delivered as 5 pieces that lock together into a stool. Each one is slightly different and unique due to the screen printing process.

These simple illustrations really tickled us here at Distillate, and we love anything French.

It's great when two things you love are teamed up into one neat little loveable package. Here we have embroidery hoops and chalkboards.

One of Distillate's readers discovered this guy at the Brooklyn Flea Market in Fort Greene, and we're so pleased she passed on his site.

These are for kids, we won't kid you, but they are seriously so lovely that we thought you would like them as much as us.

Wooden toys are harder to come by these days annoyingly, so good ones you have to fork out some bucks for...

The Small Object is one cute little store. We last featured them here awhile back.

This time though we have to write about the super cute to boot stamp sets. They're mini (tick one), sweet (tick two) and the Small Object does amazing wrapping that you should request (tick three).

Once upon a time two talented ladies, one a photographer, one a graphic artist, got together and started creating sweet little designs that they liked for cards. Others caught on and loved the designs, and they started to formulate the idea of a business.
