Fad*ish- fashion and design

It is almost as if someone tweaked something that didn’t particularly need tweaking, but came up with something genius. I doubt that when you looked at your lamp you wished it were a sweeper, or when you looked at your ashtray you wished it were a plant pot, and yet Vitamin has created these very things.

To say that they but a new spin on otherwise mundane objects is an understatement. They put spins and twists on things that I didn’t even know required spinning or twisting, yet somewhere in the middle of it all they manage to hit something right on the mark. Their I.V., a self watering plant pot, might be a bit unsettling to look at (especially if you know someone in intensive care), but can be an absolute staple for those plant loving multi-taskers, who have little time to breathe let alone water something. Their urban gnome, doesn’t do anything particularly special, but look a hell of a lot chicer that their red faced, clown hat wearing distant cousin.

I came across this British ceramics/furniture/sports accessories company while browsing IDDKO -- a Canadian décor website dedicated to all things European/lifestyle/fashionable. And more importantly, IDDKO sells to North America, making Vitamin easier to buy for us folks residing on this side of the pond. To delved deeper into the wacky world of Vitamin, you have to visit their website at www.vitaminliving.com. Buy a gnome, a lamp or pot -- all of which will change your views about home accessories.
