Interlocking lampshades
Hard to believe 30-interlocking pieces can create 21 different styles of lampshades/hanging lights. But Infinity Lights use flexible, heat-resistant, polypropylene quadrilaterals to create “infinite” variations of shapes and colors. Kits can be combined and price varies according to size: $25 for a small kit, $35 for medium, $40 for large and $70 for the large cylinder. www.infinitylights.com. Hilary Trenda
Spray bottle fabric softener
Method released its dryer-activated fabric softener in September. The concept: spray four to six sprays directly onto wet laundry (depending on the size of the load), crank up your dryer and ditch the petroleum or animal-fat-based “dry” dryer sheets.
The verdict? We were pleasantly surprised by the subtle fragrance, softness and static control. The formula is heat activated, plant-based and never tested on animals. Each bottle of spray – available in Fresh Air or Lavender Lilac– is good for roughly 100 loads of laundry and retails for about $7. www.methodhome.com. HT
Waterproof speaker
iDevice’s new iShower, i.e. battery-operated waterproof speaker, boasts a number of benefits. The blue-tooth enable speaker syncs to five separate users –smart phones, iPads, playlists, online music services, etc. – from up to 200 feet away, keeping your technology sand and moisture-free. Includes an adhesive mounting system or it can hang from the shower head. (Also features a clock display.) Reviews indicate the sound quality is decent, but it won’t replace your stereo. $99.99, www.ishowerinc.com. Courtesy MCT
