Cool Stuff: Egg Collective Tables

I'm digging the cleverness and ingenuity coming out of the all-female Egg Collective. The virtual design studio is the brainchild of Stephanie Beamer, Crystal Ellis, Hillary Petrie, and Julie Scheu, four friends who met at architecture school and who are now based out of St. Louis, Brooklyn, New Orleans, and Portland, respectively.

Take these Stumped Side Tables, created from fallen trees and wired to hold an integrated light. Beautiful and useful.

Another one for the "why didn't I think of that?" file: Egg's (wait for it now ... ) File Table

The Pill Table, which functions as both coffee table and bookends

Set Table, constructed from solid walnut and embellished with cheeky, 24-karat gold leaf place settings

Contact Egg Collective directly for pricing and availability, and check out the studio's other clever creations right here.

Oh my gosh - why didn't I think of the Set Table??? You could do that with so many IKEA tables and some wood stain!

I love the Stumped tables but how many times would people grab those bulbs to see if they are attached?

That table idea has my head racing. Mine will have stenciled placemats and decorative china on it though, LOL!

How cute is THAT? I love it! I like the idea of stenciling with stain....it never even occurred to me to do that!
