When Gigi sent me the set of 5 finger puppets shown here though, I was blown away...$11.00? That's it? These are hand knitted finger puppets (the penguin is my favorite) intricately detailed and perfect for storytelling.

My favorite childhood toy, hands down, was Legos. Truth be told, if you put me in front of a box of Legos right now, I’d have a field day. The ability to mix and match any and all pieces to create something of beauty or function is a key part of modern design - I bet it all started with Legos for a lot of those folks as well. [wink]

You just never know what you will find when browsing the web. Often times, you’ll find the most unique creations that you wouldn’t normally be attracted to. Rarely will you find me wearing jewelry, but after coming across the Broken Plate Pendant Co today (thanks to Tricia’s favorites on flickr), that is likely to change.
