Easter is just around the corner, and with it comes the annual task of decorating Easter eggs. This year, leave your pastel paints and your boiled-on plastic sleeves behind. Try your hand at some of these designs which are sure to amaze your children and exhaust your patience…
Although the 2013 International Home + Housewares Show has come and
gone, the convention’s 2,000+ exibitors from 35 nations left us with a
massive hoard of innovative goodies. While there’s no way that I’d be
able to share everything that was presented in Chicago’s ultimate new
product party, but here are a few especially cool things that caught my
eye at this year’s event:
If you only like looking at art in museums, you might never experience the ingenius, perspective-based art of Felice Varini, a Swiss artist who sees the whole world as his canvas.
Looking for that special gift for the model-maker who has everything? Consider this 1/12 scale pair of urinals from Japan’s Milestone that comes complete with sink, tile wall and privacy partition. Little Jimmy will just love it! His parents, not so much.
While the Happy Hacking Keyboard Professional 2 from Japan’s PFU was designed with the needs of coders and UNIX system administrators in mind, its many attributes appeal to everyday, practical-minded keyboard users as well.
Is your wrist sore from pushing a mouse around all day at your computer? Well, with the BAT Levitating Mouse, you can live in the future and prevent Carpal tunnel syndrome at the same time. But you’ll have to lift more than a finger to do it.
Attention all you mug snugglers! Designed with mug hugging in mind, Hold-Me Mug’s organic design allows you to get super cozy with your warm beverage of choice.
Next time your aging loved ones want to get some fresh air or run some errands on their own, let them! Fujitsu’s GPS Cane prototype provides older generations with easy-to-follow directions, health monitoring, and an important link to Next Generation technology. Oh yeah, it helps them walk too!
The clothes we wear tell part of a story about who we are. Cuban artist team Guerra de la Paz uses recylced clothes to express their political and artistic messages.
A solid gold, 25-kilogram (55 pound), anatomically correct replica of Argentinian soccer star Lionel Messi’s left foot has been put up for sale by the Leo Messi foundation but you’ll have to act fast, as it’s a limited time offer. Cast and crafted by Japanese jeweler Ginza Tanaka, a portion of the $5.25 million sale proceeds are earmarked to assist victims of the devastating March 2011 earthquake and tsunami.
