Pizza Lollipops
I haven’t really had a fix for a lollipop since I was maybe 6 or 7. If there happened to be one laying around and I needed a sugar kick, sure, I’d give stick one in my mouth and be on my way, but as I aged, I moved further away from fruity sugar candy and closer to chocolate and carbs. These Pizza Pops made by the bakers over at The Decorated Cookie combine the deliciousness of Italian cuisine with... Continue reading
Watch Made Using Ash From Eyjafjallajökull Volcano
Romain Jerome has been known to peddle one-of-the-kind very limited edition watches, including the Day&Watch Watch, that despite its $300,000 price tag, sold out in a mere 48 hours, and the Titanic Watch, made using actual remains from the tragically fated White Star Line ship. And you can’t expect anything less sensational from the Eyjafjallajökull-DNA Watch. The dial for the DNA is made using actual ash from the Icelandic Eyjafjallajökull volcano, the same one which has caused so much drama... Continue reading
Treadmill on Wheels Works Your Cardio While Moving About in Nature
Sure, you could argue that you might as well just use a traditional bicycle or maybe even walk for a change, but some people require variety in their life. The Treadmill Bicycle takes the treadmill out from the confines of your home and allows you to power walk your way through nature, without all of that troublesome pedaling. Sort of like a hybrid between a bike, a scooter and your run-of-the-mill home treadmill, the Treadmill Bike gets you out into... Continue reading

Mattress Wallet
The Mattress Wallet not only holds your money, but also provides that mouse in your pocket with a great place to sleep. Don’t feel like spending the rest of your life in prison? Then you’d best leave that “Do Not Remove Under Penalty of Law” tag exactly where it is, even if it does bulge from your pocket. What’s with those tags anyway? I bet it’s some tracking device. Can’t they let me live in peace? LEAVE ME ALONE! THE... Continue reading
Giant iPod Nano: A Birthday Gift from Jonathan Ive
If your lucky enough to pal around with people like Senior VP of Industrial Design for Apple, Jonathan Ive, than you might be fortunate enough to receive really unique gifts for your birthday. Designer friend of Ive, Paul Smith, received his gigantic iPod Nano from Ive and Ive’s Apple co-worker Jody.

Lined Paper Pencil Case
Looking for some much needed flash to accompany you in academia? The ultra-realistic Lined Paper Pencil Case is designed to look like a fresh piece of standard lined paper. The only hazard I could find with this case is that it could easily be confused with a stray scrap of paper and chucked into the trash. Just keep an eye on what you’re writing on or your homework might wind up on your case. Link [via]
“WTF, Not What I Thought” Lamp: No, Really… WTF?
Maybe Steve, our French-speaking publisher here at Gearfuse could better answer the question, “Why the fuck do French designers always have to do things bass ackwards? Does it make them feel more ‘artsy?’ Do your berets block your eyesight? Too much wine perhaps?’” The “WTF, Not What I Thought” Lamp, designed by John Nouanesing, surprises the unsuspecting switch-flicker by illuminating the lamp stand rather than emitting a glow from beneath the shade. Very smart, Frenchy. Blind us, why don’t you.... Continue reading
