TokyoFlash Kisai Stencil LCD watch keeps it stylish with vague display
Let’s admit it. We are probably bored of seeing the same numbers on our dial day in and day out. The Kisai Stencil is here to stir things up a bit. It’s a fan submitted design to make it through to the Tokyo Flash’s online shelves. Its LCD display dial illustrates time through a combination of lines and dots, with the digits taking up the full width of the watch’s display. The Stencil comes in a choice of five different display colors, with the option of white or black leather
Japanese cat uses a bidet in the toilet with the paw
It turns out that it’s not just the Japanese who are smart; their home-bred cats are really smart too. So smart, that they have started using the Washlet functions (bidet function in toilets that sprays water and cleans important parts) that are meant for humans. The “Cat Washlet” video posted by akiraito00212107 has stirred up a lot of interest on YouTube. His family cat loves the Washlet, and the video actually captures him in action, maneuvering through the buttons on the side with
Couple has Archie themed engagement photo shoot
I love that couples now-a-days are taking the time and energy to actually make their engagements and weddings particular to them, and something representing their personalities. It isn’t the same old boring stuff anymore. The very latest comes from the happy couple Bryan and Anne, who had an Archie Comics themed photo shoot to celebrate their engagement. They wanted something unusual, which spoke about their core connection – being spontaneous, fun and outgoing. I’m sure it wasn’t easy, in terms of both money and effort, but the results are really worth it. As a fan of Archie and the Gang myself, I really wish I could be a part of their world, even for just a day. The photo shoot was conducted by Visionary Photography Hub, and everything was drawn by the company’s graphic artist, except for the diner setting which was shot at Johnny Rockets. Photoshop, as well as a pen tablet was used for all the illustrations. They had an actual storyboard and everything. Absolutely bril
LG Optimus Vue 5 inch phone-and-tablet unveiled
First came phones, then came tablets, and then their love-child – the “phablet”. Samsung introduced the world to the Galaxy Note, neither phone nor tablet. It now has some competition in this particular niche market in the form of the Optimus Vue. The Vue is smaller than the Note at just 5 inches, but is still not small enough to be called just a phone. LG claims the 4:3 aspect ratio on the Optimus Vue as a central selling point, and the huge screen space and brightness as ideal for reading e-books. The Optimus Vue features 1024-by-768 pixel screen resolution, 1.5 Ghz dual-core processor and eight megapixel rear camera. It also has 32GB internal memory and runs Android Gingerbread 2.3. LG says to expect an Ice Cream Sandwich upgrade within three months of the roll-out. LG describes the phone as “the slimmest among all LTE phones currently on the mar

Playful plates by Boguslaw Sliwinski encourage veggie eating
Every parent knows what a nightmare feeding stubborn kids their vegetables can be. It’s like hitting your head against a wall telling them not to play with their food and eat it. But what if there was something that lets them play with the food and also encourages them to eat it at the same time. Plates designed by Boguslaw Sliwinski are a series of playful plates with a transportation theme. Featuring simple drawings of trains, boats and cranes, your kids can complete the pictures by piling up food on the wagons, carts, etc. It is pretty much like 2D Lego. You kids might even forget that those are actually brussel sprouts on the plate and end up eating them. Create fun games by telling you kids that the boat will drown and they need to “lighten it” by eating some! Hey, it could work. The plates are made of ceramic; the Polish designer produces them to order in 20.5 or 26 diameter options. Other fun designs include faces drawn on the plates, and food can be used in creative ways to make heads o
Sheepy: The adorable iPhone cover is shaped like a sheep
We have seen iPhone covers in all kinds of shapes and forms. If leopard, tiger and zebra prints were getting so famous, it was just a matter of time before someone came up with the sheep iPhone cover. This special cover, aptly named Sheepy the sheep iPhone cover, is not just sheep-skinned, but actually shaped like a sheep. Designed by simasima, this adorable sheep looks like it is hanging on for its dear life off the back of your iPhone. Intended to be primarily for a woman, Sheepy is really really soft, and feels like an actual sheep to the touch. Even though it looks like she is hanging on precariously by just the ends of her feet, she is quite stable. The four legs protrude a bit, which prevents the screen from touching any surface you might keep it down on. Sheepy’s head partially covers the lens, but is designed so that it can be moved to the side before taking a photo. Personally, I think Sheepy looks cuter with a tilted head
