I love the idea of creating a chaotic assembly line of power on a plain white wall. The “Electronic Chaos” vinyl wall stickers are a gorgeous addition for the wall behind the gadgets. Designed by Julia Wolf and created by Diz Decor, “Electronic Chaos” illustrates the connection of energy between all of your electronics. More chaos after the leap.

As much as I would hate to share a hobby with my grandmother, this urban knitting graffiti project, Knitta Please, is almost cool enough for me to take up knitting. I said almost cool enough. A whole tree covered with a surface which resembles that scarf your aunt made you that one year. Now that’s taking crafting to a whole ...

In other words, this is a rock made for the kitchen. Embrace your instinctive caveman nature and just bash and grind the living hell out of your food. It might not be as rugged as just grabbing a big rock from the wild, but it’s surely more manly than using a porcelain mortar and pestle. For $43 you could do ...

Any boy looking to relive his days of playing with model train sets will be excited to know there’s now an option for us working adults.

Now here’s a concept we can really get behind. A folding skateboard concept designed by Jin-Seok Hwang. Dangerous? Probably, but c’mon, it’s skateboarding. This would make it much easier to bring a skateboard with you on a bike ride and would allow you to chuck it in a backpack and roll out. Though it’d really suck for this thing to ...

It’s a solar panel necklace that you wear around at day and when night comes, the pretty white lights come on. With two hours of sunlight a day, you can light up the night bright as a kite for ...

Ten bucks says it’s easier to ...
