Modern-Twist Lemon Twist Pillow

Specimen Jar Pendant
Gorgeous. I already bought mine for fear that you guys would take them all. Now I’m coveting her tiny starfish and red butterfly-wing pendants. Who doesn’t love accessorizing with dead stuff? (Vegans, I kid! Also, I’m avoiding eye contact with you.)
$15 at Ami Nyitray Designs

Cupcake Courier
Does this come up for you? Because this comes up for me. Man, kitchenwear is becoming so specialized that next they’ll try to sell us a utensil to break our eggs more precisely. Oh, wait.
$33 at Cupcake Courier

Green Dimes Junk Mail Prevention
I would pay someone a great deal more than $36 to take away all my junk mail. And they’ll even plant a tree for you. Now if only I could find some way to do this with telemarketers.

Invisible Ink
I’m charmed by this ink, which shows up when the paper is warmed slightly over a light bulb, and then goes invisible again when it cools. Exchange secrets with the kids, or add an extra element of romance to your love notes.
$16 at The Library Shop
