Domestic Aesthetic Bowls Us Over

Diane Ruengsorn believes "that you can have products that enhance your life while taking into account people and planet." While apprenticing in the furniture industry, she was shocked at the chemicals and materials that workers were subjected to every day. She produces products that are produced with "peoplefriendly materials that didn't harm anyone in the process" of manufacture, and won't hurt you in your use of it.

Collin and I loved the felt bowl, that could be reconfigured in any number of ways. ::Domestic Aesthetic.

Woops, need to wipe the drool off my key board now.
I love that felt bowl, so simple yet so beautiful.
It was also interesting to hear about the ceramic manufacturer running their kiln on methane from a landfill.
Does anyone know how that would be collected and channeled or stored for use?
It's a great bowl. Can you put soup in it?
