We've got a fun array of links below that range from Adrienne's Mid-Century primer, to a selection of erotic homewares (yes, those are exactly what you think salt and pepper shakers above), a home catalog from the Soviet republic in 1983, and a light inspired by a carton of eggs...
A Mid-Century Primer: Adrienne, our Austin correspondent, drops some science about the major identifying characteristics of Mid-Century pieces.
Erotic Homewares: We think the title says it all. We especially like the Secret Book for "toys" and the Seven Deadly Sins Plate Set. The candles...oh my!
The Soviet Lookbook: examples of what Soviet Russian citizens could order by mail from their state in 1983. Fascinating!
The Egglight: Looks like a fun DIY project inspiration.

Haha, nice shakers. Being the belated Christmas gifter that I am, I may just have to slip those into someone's V-Day basket. ;)

The S&P shakers are hilarious. Very Clockwork Orange!
ROTFL KTG
There's a lot of stuff on this blog that just seems destined to clog landfills, but erotic housewares? Who's going to use them after girls' night in?
Salt and pepper shakers - so that's what they are! I knew something just didn't feel right.
Well, I've removed them from my nightstand and they're back in the kitchen where they belong.
Wow, multi-purpose salt and pepper shakers!
eew.
