Designer Adler elevates TP covers
Designer Jonathan Adler is all about bringing style with a dash of whimsy to the home. So it’s not surprising he would team up with Cottonelle to design covers for stashing that spare roll of toilet paper.
Adler, known for his pottery and home furnishings, introduced his first line of covers in August and recently unveiled his designs for a spring collection. The covers all have bold, modern designs.
Consumers can get a roll cover for free using an offer code found in specially marked packs of Cottonelle Clean Care Toilet Paper, or they can buy them for $2 each. In either case, they pay an additional $1.99 for shipping and handling.

Book gives nature printing an elegance
Plant printing takes on a new sophistication in “Hand Printing From Nature.”
Artist and author Laura Bethmann teaches how to use natural materials to print fabric, paper and other surfaces, and then offers projects for using those prints to decorate clothing or a home.
Bethmann helps her readers see the textures and patterns in natural objects, even such unusual sources as crumbled eggshells and half a head of cabbage. Her ideas have a contemporary flair — for example, a frame covered in translucent Thai paper and printed with a gingko-leaf design, and a lampshade covered in bark paper and printed with willow leaves.
“Hand Printing From Nature” is published by Storey Publishing and sells for $20.95 in wire-bound hardcover.
