Wants: Enamel First Aid Storage
So I’m going to try something a little new here. For the last few months, I’ve been populating a bookmark folder simply titled “Wants”. It’s the dumping ground of bookmarks for things that I stumble across that I…well, want. Those things - little and big - that I stumble upon in my journies across the webiverse and for one reason or another would love to add to my consumption collection. Since most of it will never actually find its way into my home, I figure it should at least find its way onto the blog.
The first in this ongoing collection is this Enamel First Aid Storage Box from Urchin. I originally saw it over on SwissMiss, and I believe it was the first item to encourage the creation of the “Wants” folder.
For the last four years, I’ve been using a standard travel kit for my bathroom accountrements. Figuring it was about time to find a more permanent storage container, I was all set to order this box to toss my toothbrush, etc. in while it was on the shelf. Unfortunately, a quick email to Urchin revealed that the shipping costs from the UK to NYC would run at least as much as the box itself. Somehow I wasn’t quite willing to shell out $60+ for a toothbrush/soap box.
Of course, if anyone happens across a similar storage container - even without the emblazoned cross - please give me a shout. Adding the decoration after-the-fact would be easy enough! And please, drop us a comment with some of your personal “Wants”. If this takes off, it would be a great way to continue sharing those little design bits that have caught your eye (and ours).
