Whether you're just married or celebrating many years of matrimonial bliss, you probably have a collection of photos from the big day.

Midday Muse: Robot Love

I'm loving how the display of these toy robots under bell jars takes them from geek to chic! This is a great idea for bachelors who want to give their homes a more mature look, but aren't ready to part with their toys.
