Ok, not everybody enjoys a picnic – but when we first put our eyes on these little beauties we couldn't stop talking about a Marie Antoinette inspired bash out in the green. What are we talking about you wonder? We are talking about Pandora Design's Baroque Plastic Deluxe Cutlery. Designed by Donata Paruccini and Fabio Bortolani and inspired by traditional Italian cutlery from the end of the 1800's this fabulous set of four (knife, fork, spoon and small spoon) is made out of high tech plastic, making it much stronger than your usual plastic cutlery and most importantly: you can put it through the nasty dishwasher – which you really shouldn't do with the real thing...

The perfect accessory for those of you who love the sun during the day, is the sun jar. Another great idea by Tobi Wong, one of our favorite designers, this jar stores the sun light. No kidding, it really does… Have it sit in the sun during the day and see it radiate at night. All made possible by modern technology – some LED's, a solar panel and some ingenious thinking. The kind of thinking Tobi is famous for. This is a wonderful effect and the sandblasted glass makes it seem as if it truly emits warm sun light. It is a great little idea for an outdoor summer dinner, where you have the jars scattered around the table, or an evening at the beach where they will provide just the right amount of light, or as garden illumination, just position them at strategic points in your garden or rooftop terrace or balcony – they work equally well in either location. Size: 4" x 4" x 6" (10 x 10 x 16 cm) See less

The creative guys over at Droog Design give all new meaning to the word sucker. This is one of the smartest contraptions for the home and we are amazed how few have actually heard of it. Its basically exactly what the name says: A silicone sucker. Need more info? OK. Think of it this way, a hanger that you can put up on the wall, and if you don't want it any more, take it off and stick it somewhere else. It is a soft silicone contraption and all you do is stick it on the wall and press the air out. The resulting vacuum holds the 'Sucker' to the wall - don't need it any more? Lift up an edge, have the air flow back inside and voilà - no more 'sucker on the wall'. Smart eh? We love it in the kitchen and in the bathroom, but also to add additional hangers in a closet. Oh and kids - they adore those little suckers... Speaking of size, they are 4.72" (12 cm) wide and 3.35" (8,5 cm) high and come in 3 cool colors. See less

Take geometry for a spin Movement is a constant thing in the universe. Inside us, all the atoms are in constant motion and if you were able to see all the atoms zooming and spinning, you'd be awed at how beautiful the atomic ballet is. Well, Tetra Tops are the next best thing to being the size of an atom. Copying nature's complexity and how nature builds with spheres rather than blocks, Tetra Tops are a revolution to the spinning top genre. You see, normal tops have one axis of spin, which is mathematically boring. But by borrowing from nature's designs, Tetra Tops have multiple axes of spin and can spin on any one of their spheres. Each package contains two random (in style and color) Tetra Tops. Maybe you'll get the fun loving tetrahedron (4 vertices); or perhaps the loquacious octahedron (6 vertices); or if you're lucky you'll get one of the dream team: the icosahedron or the cubeoctahedron (each with 12 vertices). Regardless, you'll enjoy spinning them and marveling at how simple... See less
