just a few amazing things 6.17.11

• 1) Method and Dwell are sponsoring a really fun contest/challenge involving recycled, reused, and re-purposed Method bottles. They’re curious to see what you can come up with- something practical, artful, functional and/or fabulous. The only constant is that it has to contain a Method bottle (any Method bottle). Deadline is June 30th. All the rules and prize info here.

• 2) Speaking of Dwell, in addition to the Pinterest LA blogger get-together mentioned earlier, Pinterest is also offering a discounted promo code to for next week’s Dwell on Design! More info here.

• 3) Aqua aluminium + white oak= awesome picnic times. Check out the latest piece by Scout Regalia (via LA Times)

• 4) the Aro collection from Materia is all kinds of cork loveliness. I kind of need all of it. now.

Hope y’all have a good one!
