Medieval Desk Accessory? I Ask Thee, Why Not?

Joi — Tue, 06 Jul 2010 22:15:37 +0000

If you have a taste for the unusual (and I’ve heard that you do), you’ll be as impressed with this The Claremont Helmet Lidded Bin as I am. No doubt you’ve heard about my own quirky taste for the unusual.

The sure-to-be-the-talk-of-the-office The Claremont Helmet Lidded Bin is from a retailer I’m completely obsessed with – Design Toscano.

To put it simply, they’re just as off-beat as we are. They, no doubt, have an inner Office Freak, and he – make no mistake about it – knows how to get his freak on.

Product Description:
Though the “Claremont” is an accurately rendered, medieval sculpture, the helmet opens to make this knight eminently useful in the charming English tradition of “the book hide”—as a dust bin with removal mesh basket, an ice bucket, a storage compartment, or as a stash for your latest cloak-and-dagger novel! Accurately sculpted, then cast in quality designer resin and finished as faux metal, this is a functional work of decorative art for your castle.

11″Wx12½”Dx16″H. 9 lbs.

Cool Office Gadget: The Plantronics Wireless Office Headset

Joi — Thu, 10 Jun 2010 15:36:31 +0000

The Plantronics CS50 Wireless Office Headset – Over-the-head, Over-the-ear is the bomb diggity. It brings mobility and hands-free conversations to your phone – a huge plus when you’d rather be using your hands for typing, writing, eating, scratching, or whatever else you do with them, rather than clumsily holding a telephone.

The CS50 gives you eight hours of talk time and the wireless convenience to roam up to 300 feet with secure conversations. That’s a very good thing for people like my husband – he’s a talk-and-walk kind of guy. Due to his business, he spends a lot of time on the phone. Some days I’m pretty sure if he wore a pedometer, he’d blow the thing up. It couldn’t keep up.

I guess this is one of the reasons he hates to be constricted when he’s talking on the phone. Gotta move, gotta move, gotta move…

Features:

Operating Frequency 900 MHz digital
Headset Battery: Li Ion Polymer
8 hours of wireless, hands-free talk time
Digital 900MHz for secure conversations
Fully recharge the headset in less than three hours. 80% recharged in 1.5 hours
Have clear, private and completely secure conversations
Be heard clearly with a noise-canceling microphone
Optional behind-the-head style is also available
Security/Privacy: Digitally encrypted
Compatibility: Most office or PBX-based telephones

Gorgeous Model Ships Make an Office Come Alive and Set Sail

Joi — Fri, 30 Apr 2010 14:41:50 +0000

One of my uncles collects model ships. It was a hobby he began when he was a teenager – even before he joined the Navy. The Navy became his life’s mission and he kept reenlisting until they accepted the fact that they’d have him and his model ships around for three or four forevers.

When I was a tiny little office freak, I loved to watch him assemble these model ships. Partly because it was fascinating and partly because his mother (my grandmother) frequently brought us fudge. If chocolate is on the scene, count on me being nearby.

The gorgeous model ships below are from New York Times Online Store and would instantly turn any office (or room) into a very cool place to be.

Especially if fudge were also in the vicinity. I’m just saying…

40 Endeavour Wooden Model With Free Shipping! – Capture the spirit of the high seas with a masterfully handcrafted replica of the Endeavour, which was built in 1933 and was one of the most impressive British sailboats to ever race in the America Cup series. Master craftsmen using historical photographs, drawings or blueprints meticulously make these highly accurate, wood models from scratch. They are built with high-grade wood and plank-on-frame craftsmanship, similar to the construction of actual boats. This model comes built; for shipping purposes, the mast arrives detached. These models are made of the finest woods, like rosewood, mahogany and teak. They are adorned with chrome and brass fittings and ornaments. Comes with a solid wood base, with brass nameplate, plus historical information. Dimensions: 40 long x 45 tall x 8 wide. To view other images that show this model ship up close and/or from different angles, click here. To view another image that shows this model ship up close, click here. Comes with FREE 8 x 10 Tall Ships photo – doubled matted and suitable for framing! FREE ground shipping in continental U.S. (Ships from the West Coast.)

28 San Felipe Wooden Model With Free Shipping! – This is museum-quality, FULLY ASSEMBLED replica of the San Felipe, one of Spains most powerful and beautiful ships on the high seas in the late 1600s. Master craftsmen using plank on frame construction, just like real ships, handcraft this medium-size model with the highest quality woods from scratch. Each model takes more than 200 hours to build and is subjected to a demanding quality-control process. The San Felipe was known for its beauty and every effort has been made to capture the details. It is built with the most exotic woods – rosewood, ebony and mahogany that give an impressive look with their different shades. The hull has an even, smooth surface, more beautiful than most pieces of fine furniture. From the bow to the stern, you can see scores of shiny high-quality brass fittings and cannons. The stern is the most decorated area with hundreds of small brass ornaments, brass railing, figurines and lanterns. You will fall in love with the artwork on the different decks of this model. Each deck is made of many small rectangular wooden pieces. Round-shaped shape stairs connect the main deck and the forecastle deck. Theres also a ship wheel, skylight, bell and lifeboats (with paddles!), plus flag. Comes on a sturdy wooden base with metal nameplate. Dimensions: 28 long x 26 tall x 9.5 wide. To view another image that shows this model ship up close, click here. FREE ground shipping in continental U.S. This model is carefully secured and packed inside a crate for shipping.

36 U.S. Coast Guard Eagle Wooden Model With Free Shipping! – This is museum-quality, FULLY ASSEMBLED replica of the U.S. Coast Guard Eagle, the only operational commissioned sailing vessel in the U.S. maritime services. Master craftsmen using plank on frame construction, just like real ships, handcraft this medium-size model with the highest quality woods from scratch. Each model takes more than 100 hours to build and is subjected to a demanding quality-control process. This 36 Eagle model is painted in actual lustrous two-tone color red and white. It has amazing details, including a wooden bowsprit, foremast, mainmast and mizzen mast; numerous fabric sails with detailed stitching; rigging that is painstakingly fastened by hand in matching colors. Theres a wooden machine with metal chain used to secure and dropping anchor at the beak head. On the main deck: a large wooden cabin with four doors on the main deck. On the quarterdeck: a navigational area with metal steering wheels, two wooden boats and a wooden cabin. On the poop deck: an additional metal steering wheel. The beak deck and the quarterdeck are surrounded with metal fences. Also features the U.S. Coast Guard symbol and letters on the side of the hull, and lots of metal rings above of the waterline. Theres also a wooden rudder and metal propeller. Comes attached to a wooden stand with a nameplate engraved U.S Coast Guard. Dimensions: 36 long x 28 tall x 12 wide. Comes with FREE 8 x 10 Tall Ships photo – doubled matted and suitable for framing!

Beautiful Bonsai with Sea Grass Pot for the Office

Joi — Mon, 19 Apr 2010 19:13:25 +0000

Want. Want. Want.

I’ve already cleared a spot on my desk for the Bonsai with Sea Grass Pot, 12″. Sold Individually. Right between my cat Alexa’s swooshing tail and the window. She promises not to eat it if it doesn’t try to eat her.

Sounds fair.

Handcrafted silk floral designs bring the beauty of the outdoors inside without the expense of fresh flowers and live plants. No watering, either… whoot whoot.

Great Gift Idea for Office Workers and Dolphin Lovers

Joi — Fri, 11 Dec 2009 14:17:01 +0000

Make no mistake about it, I’m a first rate animal lover. Cats, polar bears, pigs, possums, sharks, birds, raccoons, dolphins, skunks, dogs… I approach life as though God has given all of them to me as my own personal pets. (Reptiles? Unwanted gifts but who am I to question God?) So, I go about my day watching, feeding, ooohing, awwing, petting, and trying to save & protect all of my… in the words of the great Elly Mae… critters.

If you, or someone you know, feels similarly, you’ll want to grab at least one of these beautiful Wave of Light Dolphins from the Discovery Channel Store.

What a beauty!

From the website: Bring the calmness of the sea to any room with the Wave of Light Animatronic dolphin. This dolphin is a work of art and will be a joy forever. Combining lights, sound and movement, the visual experience is both hypnotic and mesmerizing, creating a relaxing tranquil environment for any room in your home or office. The dolphin is made up of twenty moving slivers that simulate the motion of the ocean. 3 Modes to choose from: Watch it move in a well-lit room with the Sound & Movement Mode. Bring it into the bedroom shut the light off and watch the Movement, Sound and Light Mode take over – completely relaxing you. Simply use it in the Movement Only Mode and be mesmerized by the slow graceful movement of the Dolphin Built-in Sleep Timer Mode – With the push of a button you can set it to turn off in a half hour or one hour automatically. Bring the calmness of the sea to any room with the Wave of Light Animatronic dolphin.

Personalized Gifts for Office Freaks and Well, Just Any of Us Freaks In General

Joi — Wed, 09 Dec 2009 20:09:40 +0000

At the risk of getting personal, when you get right down to it – we’re all pretty much amused by ourselves. The sight of ourselves on a personalized gift such as the Personalized Mouse Pad featuring your own Golf Magazine Coverabove falls under the category “hoot.” If you’re finishing up your Christmas shopping (or you haven’t even begun…what?!?!) and you’re wanting something extremely unique and personal – I have the website for you. These people are nuts and I like it.

You provide a photograph of the individual (or their pet) – then you decide if you want to present them with a poster of the personalized magazine, a framed picture, a t-shirt, or a mousepad – such as this one.

From the Website:
YourCover started in 2000 with the belief that everyone deserves to star on his or her very own magazine cover. Initially, YourCover had its employees creating each issue individually, using photos and information provided by customers. This process of making fake magazine covers was highly labor intensive – and the price point reflected the considerable labor cost.

In order to lower the price of our personalized magazine covers, we renovated our site to enable users to create their own fake magazine covers online. The revised YourCover site debuted in June 2006; now, with our fully automated and interactive site, you may log in to YourCover.com and create a magazine cover – by simply uploading your own photos and adding text (using our templates and text suggestions).

YourCover professionally prints our full-color fake magazine covers on heavy glossy paper and places them in deluxe frames for shipping. Personalized magazine covers are unique gift ideas and make memorable party favors or distinctive table centerpieces. Make your own magazine cover at FREE Shipping on all orders!. It’s a clever way to celebrate and commemorate an important person, occasion or milestone. And it’s a unique keepsake that’s sure to be remembered and enjoyed long after the event has passed.

Click HERE to get started on your very own fake magazine covers… create unique birthday gifts, personalized bridal gifts or personalized friendship gifts for the important people in your life!

Get Rid of Your Wrinkles in a Snap

Joi — Sun, 08 Nov 2009 01:41:24 +0000

You’re in your office when Mr. Big Shot calls and wants to do lunch. You look in the mirror and your a wrinkled mess. You can tell Mr. B.S. “no” and you don’t have time to go home and change. My personal option would be to drive directly to JC Penney and buy something new, but in our scenario we certainly don’t have time for that.

If we had a Hand Held Clothes Steamer lying in a drawer (or somewhere nearby), we’d be good to go -wrinkle free.

From Avon:

Take on wrinkles without the need for an ironing board. Just plug this compact steamer into any standard outlet to remove wrinkles from most fabrics, including hanging drapes. Steamer fits into your hand, for convenient travel or home use. Also helps cleaning by loosening tough stains. Includes 7 1/2′L power cord. 11 1/2″. Plastic, metal.

Apparently this steamer is available only at Avon and, get this, it’s less than $20. What?! Better grab one before they change their minds.
