April 29th, 2010

spinal tapeLife is kinda boring, and being a housewife is a lot more boring, so we have to find ourselves some fun, we need to add some funny colors into our daily life, so that’s why I always love cute gadgets, cause they’re cute, funny so then make boring little things interesting. So today, let’s have a look at this interesting tape here.

Some products are so fundamentally perfect that there’s almost no point trying to improve them.

Just for fun!

Well, how do you like? I think this is really fun, and since it’s a tape so you can put it onto anything you want, and therefore make other things funny, now that’s interesting.

April 20th, 2010

Puma New Shoe BoxShoes, yes we all love shoes, and we do love buy beautiful shoes, and today here’s something more about shoes. As we all know, shoe boxes are usually clumsy, but now here I’m going to introduce you a very different shoe box, this cute little box might make you want to purchase another pair of Puma.

Well, let’s see. This new Puma shoes box is called the “Clever Little Bag”. Actually this is a collaborative work between yves behar/fuse project and Puma, invented as a result of the idea to promote energy efficiency and conservation. The new packaging includes a cardboard sheet and a bag but has no tissue paper, therefore taking up less space and weighing much lighter than usual shoes boxes.

Eco-friendly or not, I just think this new shoe box looks really nice, and I do love the design of the cardboard sheet, very  cute and easy to take with. This shoe box really is CLEAVER.
