imagination rules the world.

Boredom can lead to the strangest things. Today, instead of doing my homework, I decided to 1) stalk members of the US Olympic short-track speedskating team 2) spend 45 minutes looking up twin-tip skis and 3) accidentally stumble across the best website ever created on earth (aside from Sparknotes and Facebook, of course).

I originally was surfing on the web for a humidifier that looked like the one I saw on my Korean drama, "You're Beautiful."

Instead of finding it on sale in the US, I stumbled across Hometone.org. It's basically a blog full of cool, innovative stuff. From doughnut humidifiers to chairs covered in freeze-dried flowers, they cover nearly every strange and creative twist on household objects.

Here are a few of my favorites:


Forget those boring old fruit bowls, banana hammocks, plates, or refridgerators. Now you can display your apples and oranges in style with the Fruit Slide. You can even have your pet hamster play on it if you run out of fruit. I guess a small child might work too.



The "Less Lamp" is modern art. For $875, you can get a black spherical thing. Poke some holes in it with an ice pick, and chop off the bottom. Wah-lah. Instant custom broken lamp thing. Very chic.
