Blog of Note: Things Organized Neatly
Things Organized Neatly has collected a beautiful selection of images that settle my obsessive arranging habits. Everything doesn't need to be lined up, it just needs to be put in the right place.

Helmut Smits
I read about Helmut Smits on Core77 and checked out the rest of his portfolio. I like how his ideas are simple tweaks on everyday life, often blending two very familiar things. His work has a very intimate, human touch. Check out these plant lamps - haha!

Nixon watches
So beautiful! I rarely like watches, but this braceletty version seems like something fun for a change. Way to go, Nixon!

Portable Scanner
I'm working on a plan to spend more time at the library, and this portable scanner looks like my new best friend for books I can't bring home:
I think this thing might also come in handy for scanning vintage textiles when I'm on the road. I read that one of the competing brands can even scan computer screens. Woah. THE FUTURE IS NOW.

Joanna Newsom
A beautiful performance...too bad about the Bud Light banners in the background. Haha.

Overkill 9000
Accumulate away, my friends. Overkill 9000 is a great source for overenthusiastic collections and strange group behaviors. Thanks, Cheezburger!

Steve Reich Channels My Dreams
Steve Reich's Nagoya Marimbas
I like the guy at the beginning who signals his appreciation by raising his skinny fists to the sky. ROCK ON, DUDES.

Deck Towel
These handsome linen towels are from Deck Towel. You can also find them at Gravel & Gold. They remind me of a light cotton towel my old boss brought back for me from India - I can almost feel it fluttering in the breeze. Summer's here!

Guatemala City, May 31st

This photo seems so fake, like a Photoshop job...but sadly, it's not. There are deep, dark places under our concrete foundations.
