Lights That Resemble Icing Swirls

Filed under: Design, Household

Mmmmm! Wouldn’t you just love a dollop on your cheesecake?

These festive lights have a real Seussian look to them and can apparently inflate in under 10 seconds. At $240, they’re quite expensive. Considering said lights are available from a French company, you better be multilingual and dedicated to your home if you want to order a few of these.

If you’ve been looking for that special something to pick up for Mom on Mothers Day, we present the chance to incorporate their love for canines, 3D wiring projects, and gardening. The Dog Breed Topiary frames from the Gardeners’ Supply Store allows you to purchase a three dimensional model of the breed of your choice to fill with sphagnum moss and ivy for your own little garden fanaticism.

The frames don’t contain anuses, so there is no need to worry about the topiaries taking a shit on your prize winning lawn. Best of all, the $60 frames almost look better without all of that gardening shit inside of them. So you can just use it as a creepy lawn ornament.

Filed under: Hacks

If you have ever lived in a suburban neighborhood, you know how obsessive people can be about their lawns. You can hear your neighbors outside at 2 a.m. whispering words of encouragement to their plants. It borders on lunacy really. If you are one of these people, but you lack the funds to get a proper sprinkler, about $5 and a few minutes of work will provide you with a suitable substitute.

All you need is a 20 oz plastic bottle with a cap, 1 universal male hose attachment, 15 old ball-point pens, Plumbing contact adhesive and sealant, an electric drill with a 3.8″ and 5/8″ spade bit, and a utility knife. Most of that you probably have lying around the house, if not the price may be a little higher. Still, it will probably be cheaper than buying the real thing.
