Putting the fun in function

I've always had a soft spot for whimsical design -- hence why we own a $20+ "Mr. Suicide" bath plug, when the local Canadian Tire will gladly sell you a replacement bath plug for $2.

I re-discovered j-me: original design, via a link from not martha (who linked their clever lemon squeezer/juice catcher today). J-me is the work of two designers and brothers, Mark and Jamie.

In the past, I remembered seeing their key I've seen their his and hers key holders:

I like that they won't be accidentally falling off the wall (available for £12).

These simple coat hooks are good too -- especially if they actually encourage the photographee to actually hang up their coat, instead of say, leaving it on the furniture... (available for £5).


They've got a small range of products, but each have their functionality with a dash of fun.
