I have a really hard time throwing things away – especially some old t-shirt from camp in the 80′s that doesn’t fit and isn’t worth anything to anyone except for me. This is a good way to “upcycle” your old t-shirts into home furnishings. Am sure Carolynda isn’t the first to do this, but at around $20 per shirt for the quilt, its not a bad way to remember your t-shirts even if that 1980′s neon Mickey Mouse T doesn’t fit around your belly anymore.

At one point, I had enough t-shirts to make quilts for an entire army. Then facing the ever increasing demands on space, a friend of mine showed me their “T-Shirt” album. They took pictures of the t-shirts that they never wore, but wanted to remember.  My wife keeps a separate folder for this pictures and calls is “Chad’s Nostalgia Picks.” (Thanks Ellen)

These hand transformers are like sock puppets without the stink of an actual sock. These temporary tattoos apply to your hand. I hope they are easily removed. Would be kind of hard explaining that alligator on my hand during some fancy business meeting.

Would you like to swing on a jar? Or carry moonbeams home in jar. And now you can! Thanks to this cool solar-powered toy.

I tested out Crayola’s 3D sidewalk chalk this weekend with the kids. Turned a small patio into fish and shark infested waters. Got the teeth to really pop out. Surprised by how well it worked. Then took it to the sidewalk and lent the glasses to passers by, who were also impressed. Mostly bummed that the 3D chalk didn’t exist when they were kids.
