I've said it before, but I love the idea of splurging on the everyday necessities. Spending a little more on a well-made,thoughtfully designed, functional product as opposed to buying extra stuff I don't need, makes sense to me. I just did a round-up of some of my favorites over at Babble. Take a look!

I agree, it’s so nice to bring a touch of design into your everyday. Whenever you reach for them, they will bring you joy!
As a wise man (my father-in-law) once said to me, buy the best of what you use all the time. It’s less likely to break, wear out, and will treat you better than ever!

I have found that as I’ve come into my 30’s…I now spend money on things that will last a very long time, that includes clothes for me too.
I can’t believe I just got excited about a dustpan, but it really is just beautifully made. I totally agree with you: the things we use everyday should be special. That’s why I splurge on notebooks 🙂
ah yes. kindred spirits.
oh my i love those scissors but then i think i have a cutting implement fetish.
