A poster-sized calendar with a bubble to pop every day, it puts people’s love of popping sheets of plastic bubbles to a useful purpose: marking time in style. Described as “The Cleverest Calendar Ever” in a review by Guy Kawasaki, this modern calendar is appropriate for any design-conscious home or office.
“Popping bubbles is something everyone loves,” says Stephen Turbek, designer of the Bubble Calendar, explaining the inspiration behind the design. “Kids love learning about the calendar while popping the bubbles. Bubble Calendar is also perfect gift for that obsessive person in your life; as long as they don’t pop the whole year the first day!”

Snot-A-Mug Egg Separator
Okay, this is definitely not for everybody but some will find it a real hoot. It is certainly one of the most unusual designs for an egg separator that I’ve ever seen. Basically you break the egg into the vessel, tilt forward slightly and egg white will drip out the nostrils while the yolk stays behind.
This Egg Separator is very well made by skilled potters. Use it whenever you need egg just the yolks or whites for omelet’s, cakes, or other recipes. Not for the weak of stomach. Read the rest of this entry »

This solid aluminum cube was designed by Josh Owen. To quote the designer, “the design of the aluminum cube jigger evolved from an experiment to compress the six most common liquid measures used to mix alcoholic drinks, into the smallest possible dispenser.
The form was inspired by traditional box-shaped, Japanese sake cups, from which sake is sipped from the corners. The six measurements are .5 oz, .75 oz, 1 oz, 1.5 oz, 2 oz, and 2 1/4 oz. The cube measures 3 inches per side and weighs a full pound. There is a recipe book included which has directions for 14 favorite cocktails.

Men’s “Star Performer”
If you’re looking for a watch that helps you through the day and increases your good fortune while looking amazingly hip and futuristic, then we suggest you wrap the Star Performer around your wrist. Tokyo Flash has done it again, delivering a unique timepiece that is a bit cryptic to use, but so utterly stylish you’ll be willing to learn. The watch displays the functions by lighting up the number in the column that is needed. Watch lights up one number in each column to tell the time. For example, 1-2-5-3 would be 12:53. The four icons on top light up when the mode is selected. From left to right, the icons are Clock, Sun, $, and a Martini Glass. The Clock icon represents the time and if it is the evening, the Martini Glass will also light up to remind you that it’s happy hour. The Sun icon represents the day and date. The digits 1-7 on the left side are for each day (1 equals Sunday, and 7 equals Saturday), and the left two columns represent the days. The $ icon represents the year and symbolizes good fortune in the future. And if you really want to show off, use the Pimp mode light-up function to set an “optical alarm” that will turn up all the lights in a firework-like manner at whatever moment you select. The Star Performer measures 2.9 centimeters across, 5.5 centimeters long, and 1.1 centimeters thick, and features a band made of solid stainless steel (maximum wrist size 21.0 cm) with a push-button, fold-over clasp.

When it comes to designer coat hooks, these Steel Darts from designer Anthony Chrisp are at the cutting edge. Beautifully finished in stainless steel, the business end of the darts are actually screws, so you can just screw them into your wall wherever you wish (they come with rawl plugs if you want to screw them into plaster). There are three darts in a set (of course), and tempting as it may be to put them in the wall in a 180 score cluster pattern, you may want to spread them out a little in order to maximise their coat hanging-ness – not a word to be used lightly (if at all Ed.).
