Steal of the Day: Marimekko Unikko Tray
If you've yet to tire of its print, you can welcome the Marimekko Unikko Tray ($29, reduced from $42) into your home for a Spring garden party, or even just breakfast in bed. I'm envisioning it serving up some fresh lemonade and cucumber sandwiches, perhaps? It would also make an eye-catching catch-all for your foyer landing strip/console, if you have one, or a perky inbox for your organized desk.

I recently came across a DIY for making an organic fly trap, and since this season goes hand-in-hand with the little pests, I decided to summarize it for you. You should have most, if not all, of the supplies already in your home.
