Design porn is better, sometimes, than the more traditional sorts of porn. For example, on a slow day at work you can unashamedly surf design porn without getting fired for it. Here are some of the things I've been loving on lately, divided into categories for your convenience.

Things I Can Do Myself and Might Just Try (and You Should Try Them Too):
pretty, reusable shopping bags
art on Necco Wafers
calligraphy graffiti
mailable art

Things I Totally Can't Do But Wish I Could:
filigreed tools
nails and toothpicks
driveable chalkboard

Things I Want To Buy:
strokable folders
fish tote

Things I Want To Play With:
a metric ton of super-cute computer games
visible pinball machine

Things That Don't Really Fit into My Other Arbitrary Categories but Which I Adored:
The Museum of Forgotten Art Supplies
a racy ad
other people's refrigerators

All those games are so cute. I wish I had better hand/eye coordination so that I could enjoy the graphics even more.

That makes my whole day to know that there's a piece of my decorated construction paper fading to brown on your refrigerator. Refrigerator placement is high honor! I'm glad you liked that and this silly thing. I have a much bigger appreciation for the Necco artist you linked to. Those suckers are so dusty that drawing on them with a fine-tipped marker is really a challenge.
