Clippykits

Clippykit is a London based company with a unique product that we have just started to export into the U.S. The range consists of bags, stationary and home based products with opening pockets on each side that can all be customized by your customer to make them totally unique. Whatever you put into the pockets says a lot about you. What you enjoy doing, who your friends are, where you go and where you might like to go. You can simply cut up photos of your family or you could scrapbook a bag on holiday with shells, postcards and a bit of beach.

Great Idea

This is such a great idea! What kid wouldnt love this? I know my kids would.

Fondue Fountain

If you haven't bought a fondue fountain yet, you should. They are a hit at parties.

I bought this one about two years ago for a party that I was going to have. I didn't splurge on the nice stainless steel one and I hated how the bottom part looked. So I went and purchased a metal planter that the fountain fit perfectly into. I cut a whole at the base to allow for the cord and punched holes in the bottom so air could circulate for the fan. There was a gap between the machine and the pot because I had to leave room for the knobs on the side of the fountain, so I filled up the pot with glass marbles. It looked a whole lot better!

I love this double fountain.

Disco Ball

The ball can be made at home with recycled CD's. This is definitely an activity that needs parental supervision and help. You basically cut up old CD's and stick them to a styrofoam ball, but the CD edges can be sharp. We love the end result.
