Cool Idea: CandlestickMaker
I've got a fragrant candle for the Winter season, but my candlestick collection could use a fresh, not-so-stuffy update. When it comes wine glasses, though, I'm good to go — my recycling bin will confirm this. So, I was delighted to come across the Designfenzider CandlestickMaker ($30),which will turn any wine glass into a whimsical candlestick holder.
Love It or Hate It? BettyLou Cordless Lamp
The Mmckenna BettyLou Cordless Lamp ($275) is a cordless rechargeable lamp that sits on a wine glass and shines for over seven hours, until it needs to be recharged on its base. If you're a wino, this is probably right up your alley. But then again, you might be tempted to use the included glass to serve yourself some Sauvignon Blanc .
DIY: Wine Glass Candle Lampshades
In your blog travels, you may have come across the Dekoop Gorgeous Helen Wine Shades ($20), which tops off your wine glasses to make easy votive lamps for your parties. I couldn't get them off my mind for months when I first saw them; I thought they were so clever. Then, lucky me, I came across a DIY to make them.
Love It or Hate It? Dixie Cup Wine Glasses
The shape of this wine glass is based on the generic shape of the Dixie cup, a form we're all familiar with. These Sommelier Wine Glasses, designed by Maxim Velokovsky, were made of borosilicate glass and each one is very slightly different, apparently to "take the form as far away from its plastic, mass-produced origins as possible."

Drinking wine is more popular than ever, and now the oenophile trend is extending to home decor as well.

5 Drink-Inspired Light Fixtures
It's time to get your drink on. From 2 percent milk to sauvignon blanc, the bottles we've been hitting may have inspired a few too many chocolate-chip-cookie binges and late-night dance parties. But milk bottles and wine glasses are also the source of inspiration for a range of light fixtures for your home.
Crave Worthy: Anthropologie Chateau Lamp
Anthropologie has done it again. The Chateau Lamp ($1,598) is every little girl's dream, but I also believe I've seen it myself during REM sleep. This palatial wirework rendering with curlicue turrets, squiggly eaves, and a floor of book leaves is not only a dollhouse of sorts (with a mini table, set of chairs, and glass and bottle of wine inside!), but also a table lamp!
Cool Idea: Julene Harrison's Papercut Artwork
I've completely fallen in love with British artist Julene Harrison's papercut artwork — which you may recognize from my Love Your City? Say It With Art slideshow. From one sheet of paper, she cuts these ornate frames with stunning typography and intricate imagery inside them.
Etsy Find: Hug Kiss Needlepoint Kit
Jonathan Adler single-handedly made needlepoint cool again, and he's got me wanting to take up the hobby. If and when I do, you won't catch me needlepointing any cat motifs. Of course, my pattern will have to be hip.
