Bubble Wall Calendar

Bubble wrap meets calendar equals a happy boy!

Serif Tote Bag

For typography lovers like me, the Serif Tote bag is just pure genius.

Neat Receipts

This is sooo NEAT!

Go Dutch

Lovin' these Dutch Canal House Boxes! Based on the original 17th century Dutch canal houses, these funky carton boxes are perfect to store papers, toys, files and photo's.

I'd use em as gift boxes! They are blank on the outside - which means the possibilities are endless.

It's definitely time to go dutch!

Word Books

Genius right? The photos above were done by Miss Party Perfect Herself, Sara Hicks Malone!

There are several versions out there and I think it's such a perfect idea! I really wanted to make one for mr. red before I popped - so that he could refer to it while we were at the hospital, but as with many other items on the to-do-list, it just didn't get done. And then I popped ;)

But I'm still determined to make one for him. He loves it when he recognizes items that he has in print or on the computer so a word book would be PERFECT! You can use scrabble letters or cut-outs and choose your little one's favorite items to photograph! Then upload and create a book via the vast amount of photo book retailers and e-tailers out there!

Word.

Tissue Box Holder

You know that person who has everything? Well we'll bet he/she doesn't have this!
The Sarut Tissue Box Holder is both hilarious and functional!

There is a plastic sleeve so you can change out the photo as you wish. The pop up nose and mustache are there to stay and add some humor to any pic you add. I think I already know a perfect photo of mr. Red to use!

It makes an awesome gift and an even better conversation starter!

Magnets

I'm loving these colorful and playful magnets by SusyJack! Get your serious point across, playfully!

Toy Box

I've been on the hunt for a sleek, clean, modern toy box for mr. red's room. And to my surprise, there are hardly any out there! But I did stumble upon this fabulous shop by mod mom - and her toy boxes are truly just that, fabulously mod!

The hubby and I absolutely love the Owyn Toy Box, however, it's a bit beyond our budget.

So the brilliant hubby came up with a very cool solution! We found a pretty sleek, minimal, natural wood toybox at target with clean lines for only $49.99! And so he suggested we get that and then stick decals on it! So it resembles the mod look of the Owyn Toy Box! Genius right? I'm just ashamed I didn't think of it myself.

So I have a new project and will post pics once it's done.

Calendar Tape

Pretty genius right? Now there's no excuse. It's time to get organized and get in order with the very clever Calendar Tape.

Stick it anywhere you want and then use it as a calendar and planner, and stick to it!

Designer Duct Tape

We all know how handy duct tape can be. Now there's designer duct tape to make things not only easier, but look better, too! So now you have even more reasons to put some duct tape to use.

You already know which is my fave, WOODGRAIN!!!

Chalk a Doodle Placemats

Having a hard time keeping lil ones or even big ones entertained at the table? Try Chalk-a-Doodle Placemats!

Now you know I love anything chalkboard, but I'm still not so sure how having chalk dust so close to the meal works. I foresee the dust getting everywhere including the fingers and food? But maybe that's just my OCD kicking in. Regardless, I still think it's very cool.

So use em as placemat placecards, or try a game of pictionary at the dinnertable! Whatever you do, your guests are sure to have some fun! Write on!

Grass Charger

Now I know fake "anything" is dangerous territory, but in this case, I think the Grass Charging Valet is a cool exception. Recharge your devices in a modern patch of faux grass! Hide all the unsightly cords and mess while looking deceptively green.

No water or sunlight necessary!

Get Some Mojo

Cleaning up after my 2 year old while baking another bun in the oven, I am definitely in need of some Mojo. When Austin Powers is nowhere in sight, escape to the Land of Nod, where they sell their fabulous Mojo.!

I covet this toy box/bench. I'm all for storage that doubles as modern eye candy. The price tag, on the other hand, I can do without. Who knew Mojo was so expensive?

Now choosing which photos your significant other didn't blink in, or which has your best angle, that...we can't help you with.

They also make awesome train ones for kids or kids at heart!
