Ideaco Tubelor Trash Can -- $ 49.00| Buy it here
It’s a shame to have a trash can spoil the look of a room, and really, there’s no reason why you should have to suffer the sight of an ugly bag hanging over the side. This inner-receptacle-plus-outer-cover trash can tidies up that whole dilemma lickety-split.
12 x 8 x 8 inches.
Made in Japan.

Green Boy -- $ 10.00| Buy it here
Cute. While Green Boy does a great job of organizing that jangling mess of keys you have, to me, it seems like he’s being quite assertive and telling me to remember to keep work and home life separate. Funny how a piece of green plastic could have so much emotion.
Designer: Vadim Kibardi
