"Drip with Song" CD-playing Teacup
Jongmin Kim has designed one of those "didn't know I always wanted one" things: a teacup that plays music. Well, technically, it's the saucer with built-in speakers that plays the tunes. The teacup serves as volume control. I'm picturing Alice rockin' out while the Mad Hatter DJ's....

Ok, I know that haircuts don't happen often enough to justify a pricey chair just for the occasion....... but it's SOOO adorable! Can't we put our heads together and think of all the other ways we could use it in between trims so that we have a "practical" use for it? Umm.... a time-out chair..... a high chair for meals.... OH! and It has working lights and engine noises- we can charge neighborhood kids a quarter to play with it, just like at Chuck E. Cheese! Anything, absolutely ANYTHING, to give me an excuse to buy one! »

Trivia Game, Truth or Dare, Lifehacks and NY '09 Resolutions, Chore Chart, Jewelry Organizer..... so much more...~ It's like XMas at Studio 54! "Pass the 'nog, Andy! Powdered sugar for my holiday cookies? No, Bianca, I think I'll pass....." I'll be honest. When it comes to advent calendars... well.... I'm a whore. Yes. I'm an advent calendar whore. I can't help it! It's not so much about the countdown for me as it is about all the little nooks and crannies and boxes and pouches containing treasures. I don't care if they're cheap, tacky, ridiculous treasures. The anticipation is delicious. "Yay, it's a new day! I wonder what piece of crap I get today?" I have been heard to trill as I leap and bound (well, roll and waddle) down the stairs every morning. (The fact that I am the only adult in the house and the one who restocked last season's calendar, and thus am in possession of the Crap 411 ie "What's Inside the Boxes," is something I choose to ignore. That's why I check early in the morning, before caffeine.) I love this one in particular because it has so many non-advent calendar usages. From creative party food display (fill the boxes with truffles or hors d'oeuvres, leaving some doors open so that people can see what's inside, and set it on the buffet), to a jewelry box (if you're very organized you can print up a list of what numbers correspond to which pieces and attach it to the back) or come up with a game (trivia or Memory perhaps?) to play at an event. Fun fashion pictures from the 80's (neon, jelly shoes, Aqua Net) that you print in pairs can go behind doors for a Memory-type game. Or type up baby questions or naughty sex truth-or-dare questions for a baby or bridal shower. How about putting a New Year's resolution or lifehack idea into each compartment and opening one a week in 2009? Or favorite quotes/relationship advice for an amazing wedding present? Whatever. It's all good. Or so says the whore. »

From the site: The Christmas Carol Outdoor Light and Sound Show. WAS 129.95 NOW 54.95 This simple electronic device transforms your exterior holiday lights into a synchronized-animated spectacle precisely matched to the rhythm and music of 20 pre-programmed Christmas carols played through the built-in speaker. Each of the six outlets can power up to two strands of C-type bulbs or three strands of mini (T1 3/4") or LED lights, in addition to other lighted displays. Special circuitry turns the different light systems off and on in perfect synchronization as the speaker plays traditional tunes such as Jingle Bells and Deck the Halls, with 10 carols in a traditional style and 10 in a modern holiday style, creating a flashing kaleidoscopic choreography of illumination an d sound. Each catalog of 10 carols plays in a random order, or specific carols can be selected at the touch of a button. The weatherproof device withstands the rigors of winter, and has built-in volume control and a transparent cover to protect light plug connections. Mounts to the side of your house or on its ground stake, and plugs into AC. Can also be used indoors. »

The marbles produce the most enchanting melodies as they travel and it has occupied my three kids from birth on up. But remember, don't leave the marbles near a baby- choking hazard! from the site: Feed the bluebird a marble and she'll sing for you. Align the 30 wooden "leaves" in rows on the tree tower, and the marble will bounce down, striking every leaf as though it were a note on the musical scale. Every cascade creates a different tune. The bright and colorful tower includes 10 wooden marbles and 10 glass marbles that add to the different tones. Musical fun and a great gift for ages 4 and up. Size 32" tall »
