Design Your Own Jonathan Adler Stuff

I designed my very own pillow and rug on the Jonathan Adler site. So much fun! (Not gonna look at the price tag.)

Book Rest Lamp

What a sweet little bedside lamp. When you rest your book on it, it becomes a house.

How Was Your Day?

Track your feelings on this nifty life calendar. Hopefully you’ll see more smileys than frowns. How do you draw “craving pho”?

Neato

More awesomeness from Ely Kim. Man, I wanna be this guy’s friend.

Book “Marks”

Here’s one of those things that make me say, “Stuuuuupid!” — and then chuckle anyway.

Book “Marks”: Mark Wahlburg, Mark Zukerberg, Karl Marx, Mark Twain, Mark Anthony and Mark Hamil.

So silly.

Vintage Suitcase Boombox

I will likely never be cool enough (or rich enough) to carry around a Boomcase (portable speakers that connect to your iPod).

Still, how rad.

Robo Servant

I think this mini robo vacuum was invented by someone who’s seen me eat. I need this in my life.

Warm Memories

What do you do with all those old T-shirts you just can’t seem to part with? Turn them into a cozy quilt. My friend wants to do this with our sorority tees. (I’m afraid. Is she gonna use the Pimps & Hos Party and Kamanawanalea Luau shirts? What? College was fun.)  The Memory Quilt Kit comes with the blanket fabric and detailed instructions on how to make the one-of-a-kind keepsake. Sewing is required, but if you’re not needle-savvy, you can have a professional do it for an extra fee.

Are You Cereal?

This spilt milk cereal bowl is so silly. I like it.

Old School Meets New School

These would make me happy. Meet my childhood pals Hello Kitty, Badtz and My Melody—now all 21st century and shizz.
