The Public Library of Cincinnati has made a small collection of illustrated WWII posters available for download. If I had access to a high-quality printer, I'd be making and framing copies.

The Five Year Plan
My sister has big dreams of working for MSF someday and ultimately this project brings her to mind. The 5 Year Plan looks to be quite a good book with an equally good mission. It contains 32 screen-printed works by the same number of artists silk screened on khadi cotton. The book comes in an authentic hand-loomed jhola bag with a paper "literary supplement" explaining the significance of the bags. Best of all, profits from the book go to Doctors Without Borders (MSF).

Kiikku Planter: Tonfisk Design
Maybe it's the bitterly cold and overall dreary weather that's descended upon the Midwest, but it was lust for this Kiikku Planter at first sight. The dark walnut ladder and sleek design makes those flowers truly pop. It's made by Tonfisk Design and available through Unison.

Postcards To My Parents
If awesomer was a word I'd use it to describe the work of Carolyn Sewell. Her Postcards To My Parents project is a perfect blend of simplicity meets wit. Furthermore, her personal blog Pedestrian Typography is as visually delicious as....dare I say cupcakes for breakfast?

Best Mug Ever?
I'm not so sure I've ever asked for only half a cup of coffee, however, this mug is ridiculously adorable in so many ways. Half the coffee, but all the wit.
