Ribbonesia

You know what's incredibly frustrating? These beautiful ribbon animals are available to purchase online in this awesome Japanese store; but they're sold out of the one I would actually go to the trouble of buying! I am in love with this furry lion head!

Ribbonesia is the product of illustrator Baku Maeda, who needed a project for his "fiddling" fingers in his downtime. The accessories line is full of amazing animal head brooches and pins, but at the bottom of this post you can see what I can only hope is examples of the visual display line!

I need these.

I don't know who's behind Connect Design from Korea, but whoever they are, they've seen inside my mind. I want so many things on their site! I need my planner to be combined with my watch:





I need my mugs to have animal tails:



And I really need 1. an iPhone 4 and 2. this kit to customize my own case!



And I need to be able to not only tell people what time it is, but show them without having to cramp my arm.



So cool!
