Shop for Home, Gifts and Self at Velocity

Have you thought about Holiday presents? This site, Velocity, might be a one-stop shopping experience for those names on your list.

In the spirit of Christine O’Donnell, take a look at Witches’ Kitchen, a handcrafted kitchenware collection inspired by the witches and wizards of western lore. Or think about an upside down planters by Boskke.

Fluf is a fabric line hand-printed in small runs on chemical-free hemp and organic cotton, using water-based, biodegradable dyes; their patisseriechirp, and wool punch pillows are made in Toronto. The Oval Pleated Pendant Light by Pigeon Toe Ceramics is a  shallow open shade with a tiered pattern on an unglazed surface.

Animal-themed accessories include Alessi Fly Thumbtacks and Artecnica Jewelry products by Tord Boontje.  And, yes, holiday themed items are at this site, too: Advent cards, angel chorus and pixie in the forest mobiles, and Brushy Cat Ornaments by Roost crafted from natural plant fibers with wood accents.

Wallpaper designs include Amy Butler’s Passion Lily, Temple Tulip, Field Poppies and Sun and Moon themes.  Ferm Living wallpapers from Denmark include Butterflies, Berry Black and Living Leaves themes, as well as a child’s train wallpaper:   Ferm Living designs are a combination of graphic patterns and a unique modern touch, as well as interesting and distinct colors.   All of Ferm Living’s wallpaper is WallSmart quality; WallSmart is a new generation of non-woven wallpaper that is designed for easier and more flexible hanging by applying the paste directly to the wall. It is washable and has very good light resistance.

Paper products such as Bob’s Your Uncle Open Sesame Password Reminder Book and the Multi-Task Planner Journal. And if you feel a need to be Eco-Friendly, there’s a section for that, too.

This Seattle based store has a sense of humor; nowadays, we all could use a bit of humor.
