The Best Thing From Ikea’s Marimekko Collab Is a $4.99 Shopping Bag

Plus, Design Within Reach’s semiannual sale is here, and your favorite Dutch oven company made a very good measuring cup.

Congratulations: February's over! March, with all its promise of spring, warmer weather, or at least some sunshine past 5 P.M., is a little bit better. Banish any lingering traces of the doldrums with some new stuff for your home, including a lovely sofa (on sale!), and a resuable shopping bag that'll make you the envy of everyone at your CSA pickup. 

Ikea's collaboration with Marimekko  is bound to sell out, but please, if you can, get your mitts on the iconic Ikea shopping bag, in a cheery rhubarb leaf print. You heard it here first: This is 2023's status shopping bag, so run, don't walk!

For those who love rhubarb's lush green leaves, this spacious and durable carrier bag spreads a summery feel all year round – regardless if you’re shopping, doing laundry, going on holiday or moving.

Chasing Paper's quarterly sale runs from March 8-9 only, and everything on their site will be 20 percent off! There are many an option to choose from, but this striped peel-and-stick wallpaper is a real kick in the butt, in the best possible way.

The Cleo Stripe Vertical print is designed by Shadé Akanbi for Chasing Paper. The print’s color makes for a fun neutral and we love its playfulness! And it certainly puts a twist on traditional stripes! 48" repeat.  

Do you need a new measuring cup? (Probably not.) Do you want a new measuring cup if it's jewel-toned and cute enough to plonk on the table as a serving vessel, a vase, or whatever your heart desires? (You bet your bippy!)

Why should any part of your kitchen be boring? Our Great Jones glass measuring cups are colorful and highly functional, with clear, printed measurements in ounces, cups, and milliliters (no mental math!).

Well, well, well, if it isn't Design Within Reach's semi-annual sale! Time to buy whatever it is you've had your eye on, but if you're simply overwhelmed with choice, may we suggest this sofa, in a fetching shade of mustard?

Design Within Reach Muse Sofa

The dramatic hero of any room, the Muse Sofa combines exaggerated, sculptural forms and sensual, textural materials to deliver comfort, playfulness, and permanence. This sofa has a grounding quality, it’s a space where the sitter feels a sense of calm and warmth.

And finally, a neutral lamp to ground all that color you've surrounded yourself with, in a playful shape, from one of our Dwell 24 designers. 

Lubbux Curl Lamp

Mimicking a sit-up position, the Curl lamp nests a spherical glass shade into a curved wooden base to resemble a head and body mid-exercise.   The Curl lamp is crafted and hand-finished from white oak that is locally sourced from south-eastern Pennsylvania.
