< Previous | Home | Next > The hedgehog nest. This is so cute we couldn't resist. It's a ready made wicker hedgehog nest in case you would like to make life a little easier for the prickly critters. We live in Sweden, and here hedgehogs have become few and far between, having been killed on the roads by cars in large numbers the last decade or so. (The hedgehogs' instinctive defence is to roll up in a spiky ball when it feels threatened. This will deter the odd terrier, of course, but does little to fend off the approaching Land Rover. The hedgehog nest is available from Danish garden and home store Isabella Smith for a measly DKK 169:- (about USD 29:-). That's a small price to pay for having a happy hedgehog family in the back yard.

Laguna Seca diamond pendant. The Laguna Seca racing cirquit, situated in the hills near Monterey, Ca., was built in 1957, but has been re-built and re-designed since then. The lap is currently 2.24 miles (3,610 meters) and the track used to be very popular among drivers when Grand Prix races were held here between 1988 and 1994. Financial and safety issues put an end to this era, but the track has been redesigned and is now approved for motor cycle races under the MotoGP tour. The above Laguna Seca pendant in 18 ct. white gold with diamonds, sapphires, and rubies is available at Cirquiti for EUR 64:- (approx USD 81:-). There are also several other famous race track pendants available, among others, Jerez (Spain), LeMans (France), Donington Park (UK), and Estoril (Portugal). A must for petrolheads the world over.

BlackCoat-T. The iPod ready tee. This may be a re-posting, but I've honestly not seen the BlackCoat iPod t-shirt anywhere before, so I'm willing to take a chance. The shirt has a built-in pocket with a zipper for the iPod, so you can keep it closest to your heart. If you think the red zipper is to showy, the shirt is also available black/black or white/white or white/red. The BlackCoat-T from Amazon at USD 24:- a piece.

Seriously inked - phone doodle style. These amazing tattoos are made by French tat artist Yannou Yannou. They are really quite out of the ordinary. Have a look at his site Your Meat is Mine. Via Smidigt (in Swedish).
