How fab are these garbage (or rubbish) bags??
created to help prevent littering and encourage people to take their rubbish away with them. I love them - they're genius!
They are designed by Japanese company,
MAQ Inc. and can be bought from
Mottainai along with loads of other really cool bags for your rubbish. This rabbit one is by far the best though.

It never occurred to me that 'Do not Disturb' door hangers could be interesting and well designed, until I stumbled upon
Michael Lebowitz's fantastic collection on the equally fantastic
Grain Edit.
Lebowitz found the collection on the wall of his late grandfather's study - he was a foreign service man and during his travels had collected the door hangers, brought them home and stuck them on the wall of his study, eventually filling the whole wall!
They are really great, all different shapes, sizes and languages. Some are simple and well designed, some have humour and others are just functional, but they are all great pieces of ephemera - thank you Michael for sharing!

I always have a 'books I want' list on my computer, just in case someone wants to surprise me. Anyway, today I managed to buy 2 of them and for the grand total of £12.25!!

The first was, 'Leroy Grannis: Surf Photography of the 1960's and 1970's' by Steve Barilotti - reduced from £24.99 to £6.25, and the second was, 'Alison Jackson: Confidential' from Taschen - reduced from £24.99 to £6. The Grannis book has a small tear on the cover, but the Alison Jackson book was still sealed. So thanks to
Pussy Home Boutique, Brighton for making my day

With Polaroid film production coming to an end sometime in 2008/2009
Save Polaroid is spearheading a worldwide campaign to help save it. The website is full of the joys of Polaroid; history, news, stories and lots of pics, plus a downloadable '
action pack' on how to help the cause.
Polaroid is a great media, I love the slightly hazy, 70's looking colours - what I like to call 'the Polaroid effect' - now what other camera can do that? OK, I know that Fuji do a similar camera, but the pictures are a different shape and it's just not the same!
If this has inspired you to dig out some of your old polaroids, why not send one to
Postcard Polaroid.
