There are many beautiful things in the world - the main ones for me being family, friends, and nature. I am not a very material person, but certain objects simply make me happy. One is my morning coffee cup. I bought a set of large latte or tea cups from the Finnish (my nationality) design shop iittala (www.iittala.com) when I started a job a few years back that I was really happy to have gotten. The set "Taika" means "magic" in Finnish. The two small ones are from the same store, but by Finnish Arabia (www.arabia.fi), to celebrate Helsinki being the "design capital 2012" (you didn't notice...?). I love these cups, and I love these morning moments.
Ooh! These are super special... and it is absolutely a treat to have little things that make you smile. Good to make space for that in your life :)
