Magnetic BirdieI almost lost it when I came across this at See Jane Work. This little bird is actually a paperclip holder. There’s a magnet inside that keep your paperclips on it like little metal feathers. And best of all, when you pull a paperclip off (or jostle it in any way), it chirps. $15.00, See Jane Work
Sennheiser RS-120 Wireless Headphones
I can’t tell you how many times I have been sitting at my computer, listening to music on my headphones, and suddenly decided to get up and go somewhere, almost decapitating myself. These headphones can save you that embarrassment and injury. They’re also great for watching TV when you need to keep the noise level down. $69.99, Amazon.com
See’s Candies Gourmet Lollypops
My brother and sister-in-law gave us boxes of these gourmet lollypops for Christmas. I almost forgot how awesome they are. I think the vanilla ones are my favorite, but each one is like being able to eat a really good piece of chocolate for half an hour. $5.85 for 12 lollypops, See’s Candies
Merdolino Toilet Brush
Why would anyone want a toilet brush to look like a flowerpot? It’s hard to explain, but once you take a gander at Alessi’s Merdolino toilet brushes, it all becomes clear. It’s tough deciding whether to cuddle it or clean the toilet with it, but you probably won’t want to do the former after the latter. $42.50, Unica Home
Vintage Chic Coaster Set
Each coaster in this set of six comes with a different image depicting fabulous retro fashions. Like the color black, I think they go with everything. Now where did I put my turban? $13.60, My Favorite Mirror
Rhinestone Princess Lunch Purse
Best lunchbox… pardon me, lunch purse, ever. I wish Thermos would commit to this product and create a matching rhinestone princess Thermos bottle. And possibly a matching tiara? $7.99, Thermos
Firestarter Pinecone Gift Basket
Merry Christmas from Little Splurge!
It’s cold outside, and here’s the perfect gift for pyros. The festive basket of pinecones covered in colorful wax will not only help you get a fire going, but also looks great on the hearth. $25.00, UncommonGoods
Initial Pillow
When I was a kid I enjoyed writing my name all over everything with crayon... and permanent marker (sorry, Mom!) Ironically, now I'm not so much into the whole trend of jewelry with your name on it and handbags with your initials. That said, I think these throw pillows are pretty rad. I think it would be fun to spell out words with them.
$68.00, Rare Device
Vanessa Gold Pearl Earrings
These Agapantha earrings designed by Dani Linnetz are pretty pricey, but also pretty fabulous. Each one has a gold pearl with a cluster of 14-karat gold chains hanging from it. $60.00, Agapantha
H20 Waterproof Playing Cards
I'm not sure why you would really need your playing cards to be waterproof. Maybe your poker night guests are clumsy with their drinks? Or maybe you have a penchant for bathtub solitaire? In any case, these look pretty cool. $5.95, CB2
Egg Night Light
What a cool idea for a night light. These ceramic eggs are about eight inches tall and come in five colors. When you turn them on, they cast stars on the walls and ceiling. $150, Uncommon Goods
Avocado Body Butter
This magic mixture breathes life into my dried out hands in the winter. It's really thick and rich, and I like that you apply it with a little spatula. It's a bit greasy though, so I usually put it on before bed. $20.00, Fruits & Passion
Alpine Strawberries in a Bag
These "Garden in a Bag" things from Potting Shed Creations make very cool gifts. You just put the little bag on a windowsill and water it. (Or if you're like me and seem to kill anything you touch, you can ask someone else to water it.) $8.00, Wishingfish.com
Scottie Dog Soap
Gianna Rose Atelier makes the some of the best soap, all triple-milled and fragrant. Her line of pet-shaped soaps are cute enough to cuddle. Even the boxes are worthy of display. $20.00, Gianna Rose Atelier
Thomas Paul Goldfinch Pillow
I am in love with this silk throw pillow. It's stuffed with feathers and down and covered in a totally cute purple and lavender bird pattern.
$60.00, Loft Party
