Colored Plasticware

If one has to use plasticware it might as well be fabulous. How fun (and unique) is this set of plastic forks, knives and spoons… it even has the little designs that real silver would have, and at this price it should have little designs! A four piece set runs about $30. Even without an outdoor picnic, and the hefty price tag I am putting this in my apartment. Its simply too fun to pass up.

Available for purchase from Pandora Designs.

Eggling

Remember those relaxing summer gardening days when you would take the whole day to plant a bed of flowers or a patch of green grass? Neither do we! Who has the time or even the space in New York City to plant a garden or bed of flowers? That is why these little Egglings are so cute and perfect for any apartment or office. It reminds us of Kindergarten when everyone in the class had their own bed of soil to plant seeds and watch a patch of grass grow. How simple and fun!

Egglings have become extremely popular in Japan where they are made. They look and feel like real eggs, but crack the top and you will find a miniature garden inside. Growing is easy! The seeds are already sown into the soil so all you have to do is crack the top by tapping on it with a spoon. Then add water and place in a bright spot. The plants grow for up to five months in the Eggling, after which it can be planted directly into soil. What a perfect party favor!
