Hamburger Phone

I had a hamburger battery operated radio when I was a kid and I took it everywhere with me. I was prettttty cool like that.

As most of you probably saw in the movie Juno, they featured an awesome hamburger telephone that would obviously make a great addition to ANY home, right? I saw this a while ago on the Girlz Lyfe site, but now it's on sale which is an ever better reason for people to buy it.

Recipe Cards

A good friend of mine asked if my place of employment sells recipe cards because she needs some for her sister's wedding. The ones we sell are kinda craptacular, so I suggested that she check out what there is on Etsy. I was bored so I did a bit of searching myself and found these.

It could be a great hostess/house warming gift.

while I'm posting an item from this particular seller's shop, I might as well post another item from their shop that I thought was simply lovely. I will now admit that I do work at a Hallmark and I believe we should sell these cards.

Cup n' Saucer Set

I found this seller's shop on the Etsy front page. The ceramic bowls and cups that they make come in non-traditional prints (such as a sewing machine, holga camera, skeleton hand, etc etc). I chose to post today a more traditional design - a poppy... mainly because I like the color combo they used for these. Black, grey and red always seem to work well together, whether it be on your walls, bookshelves, or even ceramic cup sets.

Punk Baby

This Etsy listing caught my eye because it has hot pink and the cutest model EVER. This punk baby tutu isn't the most practical outfit, but it's definitely a cute one.... PERFECT for photoshoots. Although, I think I'd take this baby out in public with the tutu on.

Obama Visits

United States' President, Obama, will visit Canada tomorrow for the first time as President. Hotels in Ottawa are booking up FAST as people will try to get a glimpse of the man. Even if you can't make it to Ottawa for the occasion, you can still buy this t-shirt and celebrate elsewhere.

It's pretty damn cute.

Umbra Mirrors

Where I work, we sell Umbra brand frames, which I've always loved. I have a few of them in my room, too. They were never your traditional wood frames and were appealing if you were looking for something different. You can check out their frames here.


I knew that Umbra makes other produtcs other than frames and albums, but never realized how neat all of them were. They definitely sell a wide range of things, from soap dishes, to clocks, to chairs, to waste baskets, to... mirrors!! Some of them are king of "cooky" and large, but large mirrors can work wonders in a small space to fool the eye and make the room seem larger. These are my top three favs.

Face Mugs

These things are way too cute. When you take a nice long sip of whatever you choose to drink from a mug, you're bound to make someone smile. They're so cute they make me want to keep them upside down like that and not drink out of them.

I think I like the koala face mug the best. There was a cat one, but it's already sold out.. so if you want one of these, act fast!!
