We love this simple project from a couple years back that Caitlin of The Merrythought did for us. This hanging basket is super easy to make. Fill it with fruit, a plant, or anything else that needs a pretty place to be stored. Check out the how-to below.

A few more photos from the IDS Vancouver this past weekend. So much goodness to be had, we didn't get a chance to cover even half of it. So many great things to see and such a great show. A big congrats to Jody Phillips, Director, IDS Vancouver and her team. Let's check out the rest below.

Willow and Stump

A couple more highlights from the Interior Design Show this weekend! Above (and directly below) to start, Willow and Stump along with Mathew McCormick, Barter Design are some of the 5 designers at IDS Offsite in October, when IDS Vancouver is the cultural partner for Dutch Design Week. They had a little preview here this week.

We sat down with world-renowned designer, Tom Dixon at his Fire Kitchen in collaboration with Caesarstone before the party opening night at IDS Vancouver and asked him a few questions about his collaborations, inspiration and his thoughts on the world design community. Here's our transcribed interview.

Part 2 of our sneak peek of IDSVancouver happening this weekend takes to the Dutch Exchange: Eindhoven.

For the 3rd Exchange at IDS Vancouver Design Milk will curate a group of product designers from Eindhoven who are at the forefront of design. Previously IDS Vancouver highlighted designer-makers from Brooklyn and Los Angeles. And this year with the Netherlands. Dutch Exchange: Eindhoven is in partnership with the Consulate General of the Netherlands and Dudoc and is designed by Vancouver-based Burgers Architecture Inc. Let's take a look!

The Interior Design show opens tomorrow for the Trade (and General Public Saturday), so we took a quick preview tour Thursday stopping first at the Clay + Glaze exhibit.

Presented by DXV Canada, Clay & Glaze is a curated installation that features contemporary work by an invited group of regional and international ceramicists. From faces (and other body parts) on canisters to crumpled vessels to architectural, hard edges, Clay & Glaze highlights contemporary ceramics at it's best. Let's take a look at some of the group's work and their bios!

Today is officially fall and the perfect time to change things around with your decor, or start a new project while it's raining outside, or just make things cozier. Here's a few rad projects we found this week to bookmark! Happy Fall!

1. DIY Light Using an Ikea Bowl

An Ikea hack at it's best using a bowl and a serving bowl.

I ran into the most adorable crabapples this past week which took me back to my childhood and my grandmother's crabapple jelly. I had to buy them just for their cuteness alone and thought they would probably taste great candied.

This recipe is super-easy; I didn't go the usual route with the sugar and corn syrup, instead I melted some very delicious cherry flavoured hard candies. So good with the tartness of the apples. Hat tip to Jenny Cookies who inspired me to place these apples on top of a cake. Such a perfect place for them! Check out the recipe below.

This week's Insta Find goes to @juliassister by Jess Weitz who makes these most adorable handmade crochet creations (amigurumi cacti & succulents) out of Peterborough, Ontario. Check out those cactus pin cushions! See more at her Etsy shop: Julia's Sister on Etsy.
