For my german speaking readers
Here’s a chuckle for my german speaking readers: Key chain that reads Saustall. Made me laugh.
Stylish Trolleys
Oh my, I just fell in love with these Trolleys by Müller Möbelfabrikation! I wish we had these in our studio, instead we have some slightly lame but at least affordable IKEA ones. Me want! (For more info click on the individual image)
Objects In My House
YES! Objects in my house made me laugh out loud! What an awesome site. Thumbs up to the creator Dylan Chandler. Thank you for the smile!
(thank you max for this awesome submission!)
Kaffee
This Kaffee short by Crictor made me laugh, as I am now trying to stick to ‘1 coffee per day’ and I catch myself staring at my coffee cup…
Michael Kosmicki
This poster by Michael Kosmicki caught my eye. Lovely. I agree with @Aisleone, what a talent!
Web Canvas
I have mentioned Methodologie’s ‘Sizer‘ last year and it was received with a lot of interest. @Royalbacon just informed me that it has been entirely revamped and is now a Firefox Plug-in.
The ideal “canvas” size for web design is a moving target. To keep better track of that target, Methodologie created the Web Canvas. It helps UI designers design websites with the largest possible area without leaving behind the majority of Internet users. Super-handy tool! Bookmarked (yet again!)
Typedia
Typedia is a brand-new community website to classify typefaces and educate people about them. Think of it like a mix between IMDb and Wikipedia, but just for type. Anyone can join, add, and edit pages for typefaces or for the people behind the type.
Congrats to the fabulous crew behind Typedia! Well done!
Notebook & Pencil Socks
AshiDashi means “stick out your feet” in Japanese. Guess it makes sense with these designs, doesn’t it? AshiDashi Notebook & Pencil Socks.

Czech Magnet Set
If you live in GB and have a little one, do yourself a favor and snag this set of wooden magnets, produced in Czechoslovakia in the 70s. What a fantastic gift! (Sombebody (Melissa & Doug??) should reproduce a similar toy, I’d buy it for Ella!)
Eraser Brush
Oh, this Eraser Brush would have come in handy when I was at art school.

Wool Felt Key Fob
100% wool felt with colorful and durable key fob in your choice of 20 colors!
Dan Pink on the surprising science of motivation
Career analyst Dan Pink examines the puzzle of motivation, starting with a fact that social scientists know but most managers don’t: Traditional rewards aren’t always as effective as we think.

Ampersand Faux Cufflinks
I have never thought this would happen, but here I am, *excited* about Cufflinks: Ampersand Faux Cufflinks. Yes, please!
Polaroid Notes
These Polaroid-inspired notecards are made to look like the real thing! Using dreamy Polaroid images, the set comes with 20 different notecards and includes envelopes. Lovely.
grey texting gloves
Look at me, posting about Texting Gloves on a sweltering hot summer day. (You have to give these guys credit for putting ‘texting’ into this product name. Smart.)
Hand & Arrow Icons
Thank you Michael Mulvey for creating these Hand & Arrow icons that every UI designer is scrambling for at one point. 1000 instant karma points your way!
Download them here: cursors_arrow_and_hand.psd.zip (all 3 icons on separate layers, PS CS3)
