Peeling With Three Variations





There is a reason why potato peelers come with brown handles; to blend in with the peels, so that you accidentally throw it out with the trash and replace it with a new one. With a sophisticated peeler like this Rotary Peeler, I doubt any such accidents will happen. Not only is it designed really simple, it’s got functionality multiplied 4 times! How? Well for starters it’s got three different blade options for peeling (one for potatoes, a serrated one for soft fruits and veggies and a third to cut uber-smooth juliennes), and a potato-eye weeder.
The whole peeler disassembles so that you can clean it up nice and easily. Maybe the many options of peeling and cutting juliennes will spark some creative cooking! What do you think?

The New Indoor Sun

The urban landscape makes it difficult for us humans to experience the bliss of natural sunlight at home, thanks to the towering high-rises. So how can we expect our houseplants to flourish or pamper them with the natural goodness of sun? Unless of course, we get sneaky and trap some solar power in the “Solight” and then hood it over the plant; trick it into thinking it’s getting some natural sunshine! Clever idea and no one will know how you manage to keep those plants happy…because you can stash the Solight away when not required!

価格を科学

およっと、便利なスツールの巻。

一応は収納ボックス所属ですが、がんばれば座れます

色が選べて、許せるデザインで、何より価格が安いのが重要っす。世知辛い世の中ですが、これもまた事実。
中に恥ずかしい思い出なんか入れておくと、見つかったときに大変ですが、本や小物を入れておくのに地味に便利かと。
程よい価格、という好例ですね。

Table On The Wall



The scene is this: you need a table but only occasionally and you don’t want it to occupy much space in your home. So how do we do this? Build it into the wall or take the innovative “hang it on the wall” approach? I vote for the latter and hence The Folding Table! It stays on the wall…doubling up as a bulletin board, but when you need it…3 easy steps and it’s a full-fledge table. What’s really cool is thatEndrit has designed the wall hooks to function as a coat rack when the table is in use. So thoughtful!

Coffee cup that stands tilted!


Cool ceramic tableware in one form or the other has been decorating your dining table since long. The available patterns, designs are undeniably remarkable but you surely want something unique every now and then. Here’s a cool coffee cup that stands apart from the crowd for the fact that it doesn’t stand straight. The cool coffee cup in zero gravity when in use can be placed vertically and when it’s not in use, it can be tilted in place just like in weightless state. Pretty unique coffee cup that surely each one of you out there will fancy.
