I’ve seen a lot of press on these low energy compact fluorescent bulbs designed by Sam Wilkinson for Hulger. And up until now, they were incompatible with our voltage here in the US. But yesterday, the Future Perfect in (NYC and Brooklyn) sent out an email saying that they would be carrying the bulbs come end of May.

This thing has been up on a high shelf hiding behind some old photographs and a couple of plastic horses. I love that the name of the product is incorporated into the physical case. And in orange.

These USPS stamps won’t be available until July of this year, but they are worth getting excited about.

All this just makes me happy. I found a whole box of those white plaster letters!

This series of photographs by John Cyr are fantastic! They are stunning reminders of an artform and a craft that is nearing obsolescence. Many more to see if you go here. Thanks, yet again, Flavorwire!!
