This isn't your grandmother's chandelier. Named 'Lucky Spot,' this breath-taking sculpture was made by suspending thousands of Swarovski crystals from the ceiling in order to create the silhouette of a horse in mid-leap. Wild guess who the artist responsible for this gorgeous work of art is?
None other than British Fashion Designer Stella McCartney, ( who as we posted previously is also intensely eco-friendly - with a wind-powered studio and website (psst...guess there are no limits to the creative power of rock royalty.) Miss McCartney had originally staged an exhibit in 2004 at the Great Hall of Belsay Castle in the UK (yes, an actual castle) and decided to hang the sculpture back in the castle for Easter this year. Imagine having this up in your living room!

This dresser - with a drawer per letter - enables you to organize your gear a bit differently than usual...i.e. T for T-shirts? (via Kent and London).
Seemingly inspired by little, zen stone gardens, these pillows look like hard stones but feel soft and fluffy on touch. In other words, they are perfect distractions under which to hide unwashed laundry! (via Funis2cool.com).
Forget color-coordinating your books or CDs. Why not organize geographically - perhaps by an author's/artist's birth place or current residency? Or at least this sort of shelf will distract people enough to never notice what is actually IN the shelf. Bookshelf by Ron Arad. (via Cartophilia.)
