Don’t just putter about this weekend.
FLIP THRU
Obsessive Consumption: What Did You Buy Today?
What: Coke cans, Post-it notes, a pen — if artist Kate Bingaman-Burt bought it, she drew it — for three years. The collection of drawings ($20) documents her life in consumer culture.
Why: Because buying it is delightfully meta. And you can get a signed copy, plus an original KBB illustration ($30).
Where: Online at katebingamanburt.com.
SCRIBBLE
PixelPads
What: Intended for tech designers, the gridded iPad doppelganger ($24-$99) is really just a fancy, whiz-bang pad of paper.
Why: Your RSS feed goes from head to hand.
Where: Online at pixelpads.com.
PROJECT
Henry Road Tiles
What: Whimsical, pictorial, and playfully tinted glass tiles ($37-$46) are much more fun than plain ol’ white and are good for in- and outdoor walls, showers, and countertops.
Why: They’ll make a (back)splash.

CHEW
Mallow Munchies
What: Near brick-size crispy rice treats ($20-$96) made from homemade mallows and studded with toothsome chocolates, caramel, or dried cranberries and toasted pumpkin seeds.
Why: Our box of twelve disappeared in five minutes flat.
Where: Online at mallowmunchies.com.
WALK IT OUT
Geren Ford Shoes
What: The designer’s tough/pretty trademark manifests in shoes — D’Orsay pumps, riveted heels, and gladiator sandals in blue, black, and tan ($269-$398).
Why: It’s her next natural step.
