Insect Frames

Framed butterflies aren't usually part of a modern home but Insect Frames sells a wide variety of insect specimens simply mounted in streamlined frames. Most of the framed butterflies used were raised on insect farms or aviaries around the world. Insect Frames says that many governments in developing countries are encouraging their people to raise insects for economic advancement. The farming is self-sustainable and the insects live on an average of only 20 - 60 days. When the insects have died naturally, they are carefully gathered and exported around the world. They only use insects that are legally imported into the country as regulated by the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Department. The moth shown here is the Atlas moth, the largest moth in the world. It sells for $56.

Mercedes-Benz Eyeglasses and Shades


Mercedes-Benz is trying something new, and they're jumping in with both feet. In collaboration with Allison SpA, they've come up with designs for 40 different eyeglass and sunglass frames. They unveiled the new endeavor at the recently concluded Fashion Week in Berlin, and I have to say that I think they've really gotten it right. The designs look hip and modern, but not so trendy that they're not versatile enough for everyday wear. Prices range from $233-$330 for the Mercedes-Benz eyeglass frames and $220-$357 for the sunglasses.

Picture Wall Frames


If you love the look of grouped pictures soon often seen in decor magazines and catalogs but you despair of getting all those frames nice and lined up, The Picture Wall Company can help. They sell a set of ten picture frames that let you easily create this look with a variety of different configurations of frames. The kit comes with a template that lets you line up everything perfectly before you start hammering away. Kits are available in a variety of finishes and sell for $349.
