Lufdesign founder Tsunho Wang, finalist of the World Technology Award in Design, designed these ingenious Leaf Ties. They’re multi-functional: meant to replace boring plastic ties we have bundling up our cables and wires, as well as to add life and a touch of nature to our surroundings. Don’t these photos of Leaf Ties tied to urban elements make you smile? Thanks for the tip, Margot!

Digby & Iona’s stump ring has made me nostalgic for one of my favorite children’s books. I just re-read it and had forgotten how truly moving it is. We all could learn from the tree, and give more!
Honestly, either of these vintage stunners would be perfect for a bride-to-be to wear on her special day.
