THE BRIGHT SPOT

Pylones @ Rockwell Makati

07.16.2013 by Leah // 1 Comment

There’s a new store at Rockwell Makati – Pylones – which is impossible to miss because of their eye-candy items on display  =)

Founded in France in 1985, Pylones (pronounced pea-lone), delights consumers everywhere with thoughtful designs and innovative twists on everyday objects.

Pylones shops are renowned for their ingenious window displays and a festive environment mixing humor and whimsy with smile-inducing and practical products that address every aspect of life including home, office, playtime, personal grooming, and even pets.

(Info from www.pylones-usa.com)

I looked around the shop and was floored by the colorful and whimsical items on display.  In fact, I found it difficult to find where best to start!

I was instantly smitten by these toilet paper holders with colored toilet paper rolls.  Too cute!

Cheese graters that looked more like centerpieces for a coffee table!  Check out the Eiffel Tower grater!

These are salt and pepper shakers.  Not to be confused as novelty items hehe!

Cute plate and bowl sets that little girls and ladies alike will surely love.

Rainbow colored coffee mugs set.

Butter knives that reminded me so much of “Kevin” – that colorful, flightless bird from the Pixar movie, “Up”   =)

Bread knife + cheese knife + can opener that’s shaped like a rhino.   Cool!

Foldable shopping bags shaped like ballroom skirts.

I had a good laugh when I saw this Nesting Doll that “undresses” itself as you take out the smaller dolls, until the tiniest one becomes a naked doll!

Items from the beauty department that I liked:  hairbrushes and hairbrush mirrors.

My favorite section is, no doubt, the one with colorful office and school items on display.  If only the price tags aren’t hefty, I’ll get these for my own use:

Fancy these as your bottle stoppers?  =)

I think I was overwhelmed with the items inside, all in bright colors, that I ended up not buying anything (yet) from the shop.  There are a couple of items that I liked, though – the multi-tool hammer and the coffee mugs set (or cappucino cups).   But they’re more of wants, than needs, at the moment so I’ll just content myself with these pictures hehe!

All my photos above were taken using my Sony Xperia android phone.  It’s one of those rare moments where my phone is able to capture crisp and color perfect pictures.  No color corrections were done on the pictures above; I just compressed the picture file sizes for the blog.

If you already think that the items in the pictures are too festive, then wait till you see the actual stuff at the store!   There’s a burst of colors that makes Pylone a very happy store, where every item inside is not only fashionable and hip, but very useful too.

Pylones is located at Level 2 of Rockwell Power Plant, and is just across the recently-opened TWG Tea Salon and Boutique.

    Very nice quirky things but mahal sya ha? Parang not practical to buy it. Siguro yung very useful lang talaga pwde na. Hope the quality stands with its price.

9 months ago this feisty little cat we named Gigi 9 months ago this feisty little cat we named Gigi came to us super dirty (gusgusin to the max), malnourished and is in bad need of treatment for worms and fleas. Who would've thought that she will bloom into a really pretty cat, with salmon-colored nose, beautiful doe eyes, a prominent white hair scarf, and powdery white cheeks. 

But she is very far from innocent, and is now feared by the male cats here twice her size because she is #GigitheCatBully pala 😅 

Happy 9th monthsary, Gigi Ganda 🥰

To My Father By Georgia Harkness A giant pine, ma To My Father
By Georgia Harkness

A giant pine, magnificent and old
Stood staunch against the sky and all around
Shed beauty, grace and power.
Within its fold birds safely reared their young.
The velvet ground beneath was gentle,
and the cooling shade gave cheer to passers by.
Its towering arms a landmark stood, erect and unafraid,
As if to say, “Fear naught from life’s alarms”.
It fell one day.
Where it had dauntless stood was loneliness and void.
But men who passed paid tribute – and said,
“To know this life was good,
It left it’s mark on me. Its work stands fast”.
And so it lives. Such life no bonds can hold –
This giant pine, magnificent and old.

~

To our shelter and safety while he lived, we miss you so much.
Happy 2nd Year in Heaven, Daddy ❤
