| Socks Rolled Down Tumbler from Marimekko Posted: 28 May 2011 02:03 AM PDT I am tired of the same things again and again. For example the model of glasses I have are produced on such a large scale that if I visit my grandma or my mother or some other friend or relative I stand I good chance to find the exact model of glasses at their place, too. And I hate when this happens. So I started looking for some funny and unusual glasses, coloured if possible because my kids love colourful things.ANd I have just found these nice looking glasses that look like the rolled down socks of some playful little boy. They are funny and not at all expensive, as you can purchase a set of two for only $35. These glasses are available in many colours (smoke, honey, grass, purple and red) and are made of mouth-blown glass. They are perfect in your kitchen and you can use them now for serving some cold lemonade or freshly squeezed juice in a hot summer day. They are designed by Anu Penttinen for Merimekko. They have a perfect size, being able to hold up to two deciliters of liquid and are safe to wash in the dishwasher.

| Decorate Your Garden with Paper Lanterns Posted: 27 May 2011 01:41 PM PDT When you want to throw a party and it’s summer, you will certainly prefer the party to take place outdoors, somewhere like a garden fro example. And, if you want the garden to look more festive than usual you should try and decorate it somehow, using many colours and funny things that are appropraite to be used for a party. That is how I had the idea of using Chinese paper lanterns for this occasion. They are not very expensive, easy to find and also spectacular because, if you use then when the night comes the colourful lights will be truly spectacular. These paper lanterns come from the Chinese and Japanese tradition and are colourful and beautiful, giving a special visual effect to every place decorated with them. They have a metal frame that allows them to expand and look cool when hanging in the trees or in any place outdoors. They can be connected to a power supply and used as garden lamps, as the paper used is not flammable and usually come in packages of eight such lanterns, each having a different colour. You can buy the on the Amazon for $7.95 and have fun while using them. | |||||||||
| Posted: 27 May 2011 12:48 PM PDT As soon as winter is gone and we can start playing outside for a longer time, my kids drive me crazy to get out of the house especially at the weekends. So we choose the useful solution of having a barbecue because this way we can cook outside a nice and healthy mean and they can play around us all day long which is really great for all of us.So we use a big and nice grill where we can prepared food for all the people in our family.
This Weber Smokey Joe Grill is perfect for such outdoor activities as it is big enough to cook bigger quantities of food and also pretty lightweight, so that you can carry it around when you have a barbecue. The grill is made of steel and aluminum and has a glass-reinforced nylon handle. The exterior is painted in green and has a porcelain enamel finish. There’s a lid and a steel cooking grate, an aluminum vent and place where the ash gathers and everything else a normal grill should have. It is available now for almost $50, which is quite a bargain. | |||||||||
| Fork Adjustable Table Lamp by Foscarini Posted: 27 May 2011 11:59 AM PDT If you want to have an original table lamp with an unusual shade and also an interesting design, you might consider purchasing this Fork adjustable lamp by Foscarini for about $747. What is so special about this lamp is the fork support of the shade that also gives its name and also the fact that you can adjust the lamp to cast the light wherever you want to, as you can move it and turn it 360 degrees. The round metal support is painted in black and the shade is available in different colours. The “leg” of the lamp, meaning the long thin part that links the shade to the support can be folded and adjusted just like a human leg so as to bring it into any position you might find convenient.
The place where the lamp shade is attached to the fork support looks like the patch you can see on your jeans and this shows the source of inspiration, just as the canvas shade shows it , too – the life and style of those living in tents, always on the run and wearing jeans and other resistant materials. This product is actually the result of the working together of two big brands: Foscarini in Italy and Diesel in USA. And I guess this tells a lot about this item. |
