New to ROOM SERVICE (not yet on web, will go up later today when i get into the store) are these Scandinavian-designed pieces.  I LOVE the nut bow/game, what a clever idea and a GREAT gift idea for someone from the workplace, your boss even.  Below the game are two different sets of cafe mugs, one set has photographic images of a city skyline with a sun and clouds drawn in and the other with a photographic image of a windmill, birds and a tree.

Nut bowl game is $24.99

set/2 mugs with gift box are $22.99

I am so excited about some of the stuff coming in to my store, ROOM SERVICE, for holidays!  Some items have already come in (and practically sold out: PANTONE MUGS) but most of my gift items are yet to come.  I will (hopefully) get around to putting together a holiday gift guide, with some of my favorite gift ideas (and NOT just ones bought through Room Service), but in the meantime, i have to share with you something I have ordered in specifically for the holiday shopping season.

Paige Russell…Her ceramics are incredible.  really clean.  really cool.  I for one am going to have to get the MONSTER TRUCK piece ($85)!  I think I am going to use it for makeup pencils in my bathroom!  I have limited quantities in stock, pieces can be special ordered.  From Paige’s collection RS has some of her ceramic jewelry, canisters and use-for-whatever-you-like monster truck and camper vessels. (prices ranging from $35-$85.

Paige Russell (f.k.a. Paige Stahl) was born and raised in British Columbia,Canada. She studied Fine Arts at Langara College in Vancouver and went on to earn a BFA in Product Design from Parsons School of Design in NYC.

MADE IN THE 216 fall 08

MADE IN THE 216 Fall 08 was awesome!  Thank you all so much for supporting ROOM SERVICE and nearly 20 different Cleveland-based designers.

It is all kind of a blur to me still.  Friday was SO crazy and fun!!!  Saturday was a bit like friday but substitute alcohol with coffee.

It was really rewarding after months of planning the event to see how lovely everything looked in the space and how well received it was by everyone.

Many Many more products, great housewares and kitchen gadgets, jewelry and more to come for holiday at ROOM SERVICE, but I was so thrilled by some of the items at this event that you may see them at ROOM SERVICE a bit longer than just this weekend!  So if you missed the event, a portion of the products from that show will still be available.

Thank you to all designers that participated and if you or anyone you know designs anything and would like to be considered for the next MADE IN THE 216 event, which will be held in spring, submissions are accepted through EMAIL only…email info@roomservicecleveland.com and in the subject, write “216″.
