I was blog-hopping and came across this lovely Silver Butterfly Mobile from Shoestring Home. Aren’t they a stunner? Reminds me of the butterfly decor in the lobby of one of the las vegas nv hotels where me and my family stayed during our vacation 2 years ago. This intricately detailed butterfly mobile is suspended from a metal frame. A beautiful addition to any room and they make a great housewarming gift too.
Do you like these mini suitcases for children? Ok, now before you start dreaming about going away to those fabulous Outer Banks rentals, these mini suitcases are actually storage pieces for your child’s bedroom or playroom. They look so vintage, like those suitcases in the 50s era. These mini suitcases are made from 100% post consumer fibreboard and are durable with a protective outer shell. They come in a variety of shades – red, blue, green, orange and pink. If you would like to get them for your kids, check out LandofNod.com.
My husband and I went to the mall a few days ago as he wanted to check out some home alarm systems. While we were there, I went into a shop selling kitchen accessories and was bowled over by this sugar bowl. It is made of steel with a colored finish or stainless steel. The lid is made of polished stainless steel. Great for those who want to add a dash of colours in the kitchen.
I always have a hard time peeling oranges. So what I normally do is just cut the oranges with the skin intact and try not to eat into the skin. I am so glad to stumble upon the Apostrophe Orange Peeler from Fitzsu. It is a handy kitchen utensil that cuts just enough into the peel. It is very easy to use and the peel will be removed in a jiffy. The Apostrophe Orange Peeler is just as cool as those metal buildings. Makes a great housewarming gift.
I came across this really cool Lego Kitchen Island while blog-hopping earlier. Designers, Philippe Simon and Pillard Rosetti customized their Ikea kitchen island by using over 20,000 pieces of Lego. What a brilliant idea. I don’t know about you but I simply love this kitchen island. It is definitely a great way to add some colours to the kitchen. Lego fans out there are going to go goo-goo-ga-ga over this. Well, for those who have Amish fireplaces, then I am afraid this colorful Lego kitchen island does not go well with your decor.

If you intend to turn your house into a green home, here is something cool you can get. A recycled curtain made from plastic flip-flops.

I remember playing those little sliding puzzles when I was a kid. It was a fun game. Those puzzles are now an inspiration to the Slider Wall Art from Jellio.com. You can display them with the letters in order on your wall or mix them around. I am sure your guests will have lots of fun with this wall art. They are also great for housewarming gift or birthday gift.
