Another find from Ctrl-Alt-Design was Siesta, this brilliant wall clock by Stanley Ruiz. A doily is the last thing I think of when I think timepiece, but it works so well you’d think it was the most natural idea in the world.

It’s a good thing I didn’t see them at the show because I probably would have bought them right up! These rings and necklace by Kiel Mead are completely charming, something about the concept and handmade aesthetic really speaks to me. Don’t forget to stop by his site, his other work is not to be missed!

Some friends of ours were showing at Ctrl+Alt+Design here in Seattle on Friday night. I saw a lot of great stuff that I’ll be sharing over the next few days, first up are these crayon rings that I’m absolutely smitten with!
