"Success is often achieved by those who don't know that failure is inevitable."

Great advice from designer Coco Chanel.....brought to you from our friends over at Design Milk.

Haven't been? Get over there...NOW.

Back by popular demand......from our friends at Column Five Media. 

Get yours....thirty bucks.

Yes....yes.....we know....it's not tabletop.  But still friggin' cool.    Shut up.

From our friends at Design Milk.

We all struggle with design inspiration from time to time. Whether it's looking for a specific new design or it's just to get a new perspective on the things you see everyday. Design Milk is a site that we check out from time to time for just that purpose. Design Milk often helps "re-groove" our thinking and to sometimes consider design possibilities that we haven't thought of in a while.

Yesterday, in their "Friday Five" section they featured home goods designer Michael Aram and where he gets his inspiration from. (interesting to see where someone who inspires others gets his own inspiration) If you are not familiar with Michael's designs, you need to be. Unusually creative, new world, inspired by nature.....all terms used to describe Michael Aram's designs. We don't believe that Michael has designed tabletop items yet that are specifically for restaurant or hotel use.....but, it's only a matter of time. Whenever he is ready to that, all Michael needs to do is let us know....we'd be happy to help!

So, check out Design Milk's feature on Michael Aram. We think you'll be inspired. Go here to read the story:
