We asked our team about their favourite finds at Misc. This is shop asisstant Harriet's wishlist:

Penco Knock Ballpoint Pen White
"One in every colour, in every bag, pocket, purse…"

Mottainai Memo Block Assorted Colors Yellow
"This paper seems almost too nice to be used for notes, but knowing that it’s made from leftover stock of discontinued styles of paper gives me permission to scribble shopping lists on something of such nice quality. I appreciate how these small-batch blocks reduce waste while bringing a snippet of beautiful texture to the day."

Kokuyo Steel Tape Cutter Black
"Didn’t think I’d need a heavyweight tape cutter until using this every day at Misc! You really can feel the high quality instantly. It NEVER budges when you pull or tug the tape, and its sleek matte appearance would look striking on any desk."

Niko June Kantine Pitcher + Cups
"These are the most cheerful sets – I’ve wanted these in my kitchen since I first visited the store. I really like the roundness and boldness of the forms. I love the cups all the more because they come in a duo set, making you even more inclined to share a little break with someone."

Piet Hein Eek One Mold Ceramic Lamp Yellow
"This yellow colour alone makes me so happy, and the light bouncing around inside the cavity is really cosy. I’d love to fix this lamp in our hallway above an artwork as a down-lighter; it’d be an artwork it itself, lighting up another work."

Penco Carry Tite S Orange
"I thought this was a wallet at first, but since seeing all of my Misc colleagues use the Carry Tite I soon realised it’s much more handy and versatile. I like that it can fold out to fit pens, a small ruler, and a notebook inside (then you can add the Penco Cord Strap to turn it into a little bag), or it can be compacted to carry just a few cards and a key if you want to travel light."

Midori Polar Bear Letter Paper
"This is the sweetest letter paper, and I love how much it makes me want to send a handwritten note instead of an app or email. I’m curious to see how others use it, whether they write in the white spaces or around and between the polar bears. It’s simple but imaginative. When they’re a bit older, I can’t wait to send a letter to my nephews using this, they’ll love it so much!"

Toyo Steel ST-350 Toolbox Red
"I’d love to have a need for this bold shiny red toolbox. Lots of customers come in to Misc for Toyo Steel and share stories about their projects – maybe they’re using the boxes to store thread and needles for embroidery, or tools for jewellery making. I’d love to have a craft that means I’d need a box like this. Maybe one day this toolbox will become home to my future ceramics equipment…"

Nychair X Rocking Terracotta
"It wouldn’t be a wishlist without something I can only dream of for now. I’ve seen so many customers deeply enjoying a comfortable moment in our Nychair X Rocking Blue chair in store, often browsing through the books we stock, and each time I picture myself reading for hours in one at home. I’d choose the Terracotta upholstery for its warmth – it would stand so nicely our living room, which has a lot of wood and deep orange tones dotted with many green plants and, most importantly, hundreds of books."

Hightide Tarp Bag Round M (35L) Navy
"Perfect for stuffing with blankets and throws and having on hand for the longer, darker nights ahead. The 35L is the perfect size; it fits a tonne inside without taking up too much space, and looks much nicer in our living room than a messy pile of quilts."
