State Fair Magnets

I’m sort of completely into animal figurines lately, I trolled the dollar bins are Target for weeks looking for some to spray paint gold. I love these state fair magnets, they’d look completely unobtrusive on my white fridge. You know, for farm animal busts.

CuppaCan

Things that look like one thing but are actually another? Some of my favorites. The CuppaCan is a double-walled porcelain coffee cup shaped like an aluminum can. It even has a silicone lid to complete the illusion.

MYdrap

 

I reuse, I recycle, I want to take on composting. And I use way to many paper towels. I’ve tried to cut back, but there’s something to be said for the convenience and satisfaction of tearing one off the roll. MYdrap basically takes all of those things into consideration and sends them off in a greener direction. Tear one of the 100% biodegradable cotton napkins (or placemats) off their roll, then wash it up to six times before composting or recycling it. MYdrap is available in 20 vibrant colors, four patterns, and five sizes. No excuses left because they’re also really affordable. (Thanks, Anne!)
