Click! Design That Fits

Lollipop Lollipottery

John — Thu, 28 Aug 2008 05:31:52 +0000

At home, we have a wide assortment of handmade mugs. We use them daily, defiant of the increased risk of breaking our beloved one of a kind functional art pieces. There is something about waking up to a lovely drink (like, say, coffee) when you are drinking it out of a mug that loves you right back that makes you feel like the world is actually a pretty good place, and that it will be OK to leave the comfort of the breakfast nook and be a part of it.

Introducing Lollipop Pottery, the creation of Tyler and Jessica, who got married and had babies and made mugs and bowls, and who make us happy every morning when we wrap our hands around their creations (the mugs that is… we haven’t actually met their babies). They hand throw each piece, apply Jessica’s hand drawn decals, and hand embellish with lead-free glazes. That’s a lot of hands!

You’ve got to get up pretty early to get the matching bowl:

Food/microwave/dishwasher safe. $27 - $32.

San Francisco Crafty Modern

John — Fri, 15 Aug 2008 02:27:39 +0000

We went to a gift fair in Northern California mostly to show our line of cork jewelry to the wine industry. Who knew that we would find the brilliant Joanna Mendicino, who’s handmade ceramics she describes as “crafty modern”? Her simple, clean forms appeal perfectly to our sensibilities.

Check out “sea kelp”:

and “shorebirds”:

We should be receiving her work shortly!

new urbancase credenza

Beautiful, modern, and locally handcrafted in Seattle’s South Park neighborhood, the latest from urbancase leaves us nearly speechless. Yes, those doors are a cast resin rose petal motif, and OMG that white oak stained dark with a custom veneer makes us covet this piece like no other. Love.

XY Decor

We were so attracted to these irresistibly sculptural lamps from XY Decor, we wondered if they had us in mind at their conception. They already seem so at home hanging in our display window, probably because their contemporary design blends effortlessly with traditional or modern decor. Strips of natural walnut, maple, and zebrano shade wood veneer are coaxed into the eye-catching organic curves of these lamps.

Impressive Presses

It’s no secret that we love coffee here in the Emerald City. It takes a lot to impress the average Seattleite with a cup o’ joe, so when we tried the coffee from the French presses by Forlife it was a pleasant (and delicious) surprise. Apparently the editors at Imbibe magazine were just as inspired as we were to give due accolades to these stylish little presses. In a recent article, Imbibe names the Coffee For One press as the best singe-serving coffee press, touting it’s attractive design, functionality, simple construction, and clean, sediment-free coffee. The only con they list? The enclosed brewing instructions don’t yield a strong enough cup of coffee — a problem easily remedied by more grounds or more sleep. We have the single-serving press and a larger 34 oz. press in an array of fun colors at Click, so snap one up before they’re gone!

Summerfest

frances — Thu, 10 Jul 2008 22:05:35 +0000

Summer is here (finally!) and that’s worth celebrating. This weekend we’ll be kicking up our heels at the West Seattle Summerfest in the Alaska Junction. The free, three-day festival is in it’s 26th year and will feature booths from area merchants, works by local artists, and tons of activities and demonstrations for all ages.

Click will be setting up across from Northwest Art and Frame, showing off a sleek, new red loveseat and handing out coupons for 15% off in our booth or at the store. You can find us outside from 10am-8pm on Friday and Saturday and 11am-7pm on Sunday, taking advantage of the live music and food vendors and trying to appear as though we’re working. Come enjoy the lovely weather with us!

July 4th

frances — Wed, 02 Jul 2008 16:36:11 +0000

Yes it’s time again for Click’s yearly Independence Day Sale! Everything in the store is at least 20% off!!!!!! Now that’s celebrating. We’ll be open bright and early at 10am and doors close at 3pm. Take your first look for “must haves” on your way to the “4th of July Kids Parade“, then come back for some great deals.

To Market To Market…

Shopping Trolleys regularly $49,

25% off for mentioning The Cart Project $36.75

Surfing the West Seattle Blog (a favorite pastime here at Click), we were delighted to encounter an article about The Cart Project. This program encourages Westwood Village shoppers to use wheeled handcarts to run shopping errands rather than driving to and fro. Until the project expands to the rest of West Seattle, we’ve decided to encourage this great idea by discounting our lovely shopping trolley selection. Just come in and mention the The Cart Project and receive 25% off the purchase of one of these sturdy, stylin’ little numbers.

Personal Testimonial - John and I have had our trolley for over a year now. We carry quite a load between home and Click! Zara, (we’ve named her) has saved our backs. Farmer’s Market? Go ahead and buy a sack of potatoes, some beets and a bunch of flowers. It all fits and it will be a much more enjoyable walk home.

Stylin’ Beverage Openers

frances — Thu, 05 Jun 2008 06:08:42 +0000

We left our hearts in San Francisco when we discovered Fluffy Co., a line of clever screen printed products from the Bay Area.

$38 each

These hand printed bottle openers are made with eco-friendly, water based inks and come with sturdy hardware and a waterproof finish. Great for popping open a cool one on the deck…(whenever the sun decides to visit Seattle.) Choose from three equally adorable designs in painted or natural wood finish. While you’re at it, be sure check out the wallets, eyeglass cases, and passport holders that we have in store made with vegan Naugahyde. All materials sourced in the United States.
