Curiosities: Mustache Key Holder

That is what I call an impressive 'stache. Ben Floeter's Mustache Key Hook is a saucy way to remind yourself to keep your keys in a secured spot. It looks rather jaunty in the photo layout above. I'm attracted to eccentric pieces like this. It would be perfect to keep over a hallway by the door. Now where's my tophat and $200 on passing Go?

Apartment Therapy's Contest Giveaway

Check out Apartment Therapy's latest
giveaway with Kideko, a stylish children's bedding company. This is a far cry from my Care Bear bed sheets back in the day. Modern, graphic, and cheeky, there's something different for your personality: Love, Sunshine, Action, and Monster.  I'm loving the Monster (above) and Love line (below). Too bad they don't have it in adult size. But, for parents, I guess you can live vicariously through your kids.

Can I Haz iPhone?

During my blackout period, the news of Apple's 3G iPhone was announced and I, like everyone in the country, was riveted by it.
With the new price point, there's no reason for me to not buy one, now it just comes to color: white or black? I'm leaning towards white. Meantime, I kitted myself with a new 15" Macbook Pro, a sleek white lap sleeve...and been idly checking for an iPhone case to go with my spiffy iPhone that I'll get July 11th.

Meantime, Fred Flare's rolling its new Next Big Thing contest and look what I found?
What's this I see? Some cute stitchy-stitch character? Is this just a plush or does it do something?



Ah-ha! An iPhone case? It's cute, slim, and would definitely stand out in my purse or on a table. It's even got room to stuff my headphone cords. What's not to like?

UPDATE:
News flash: Just saw that Paul Frank has teamed up with Apple and has produced his own iPhone casings.
Check out this tongue-in-cheek ode to Gucci print below.
