All I want for Christmas....
Alright. Let's get into our time machines and flashback to our childhoods. Do you remember writing out your wish list for Santa Claus? Barbie and Skipper, Hot Wheel sets, Poly Pocket...
Now you're an adult. Your tastes have changed. And (SPOILER ALERT) Santa doesn't exist anymore, so we don't have to write out wish lists any longer. Well, just because we don't have to doesn't mean we won't. At BRANDFX, we like to do things that remind us of our childhood (case and point). So this year, the BFX staff has put together some items to go on our want list. Some functional, some ridiculous, all awesome! Please note our contact information here - We will be looking out for some of these in the post in the coming weeks..hint, hint.
1 – CHUMBUDDY
After your delightful sleep at work (thanks to the OSTRICH) you'll be hankering for another comfortable, yet eccentric, sleep. This is why we must have the ChumBuddy. Cuddle with it or cuddle inside of it, it doesn't matter. It's a 7 ft plush sleeping bag.
2 – JAPANESE YEN BUBBLE BATH
Bathe in financial luxury. We really want these $100 bill bubble bath sheets that dissolve in your bathtub. Everyone loves feeling luxurious, both in wealth and in comfort....now we can do both.
3 – SOLAR CHARGER
The future is NOW! This isn't even a ridiculous item. This is just cool. The XD Design charger is a solar powered! Never again (when the sun is shining and you have a window seat) will you be stuck on a plane having to watch The Klumps because your iPod has died.
4 – HYDRADUO WATER BOTTLE
Why should anyone decide between drinking water or straight vodka? These tough life decisions are now made easier, thanks to this clever invention. Hydraduo is a two chambered water bottle that houses any two cold beverages of your choice. Now you can start your mornings off with both water AND vodka.
5 – TAPE HOOKS
Holy cow these things DEFY GRAVITY! Oh wait, nope, they're just hard plastic. Well if you want to fool someone, or just look like a wizard, you might want to pick some of these up too.
6 – THE OSTRICH
This is one of the most ridiculous items on the market, hence why we want it so badly. The OSTRICH isn't quite a pillow, or a sleeping bag, or a bed. In fact, we don't even think the creators knows what it really is. All we know is it allows you take a comfortable nap at your desk. And with companies like Google and Nike allowing naps at the workplace, we think that this a product that will surely come in handy. Plus you can swing it over your shoulder...like a boss.
7 – MUJI GLOVES
Okay can we just get real for a second, we actually NEED these. Our Klout scores depend on it! How else are we going to DM you about that awesome sale, at that place you like, that we just walked by? I mean COME ON, this is really just for you, you'd be doing yourself a favour...really.
8 – BACON FROSTING
If you've ever looked at a plate of bacon and said "just stick it to my veins" then boy, have I got a product for you! Introducing bacon frosting. It's wrong but so, so right.
9 – PANTONE BALLS
First off, get your head out of the gutter. Second, these are a MUST for any design nerd, which we are.
10 – SPEAKAL iPIG...2.1!
This ipod docking station has 5 speakers, that's 3 more than those headphones you're wearing...AND it's a pig! It even comes with a remote...oh, what's that? We can't hear you over the 25 watts of adorable.
11 – HANDS-FREE SANDWICH HOLDER
Like a sandwich bluetooth. Claims to keep your life from "screeching to a halt every time you have a ham sandwich" and as anyone working at an ad agency knows, this is a real productivity killer. Who has time to stop for lunch? Well our hungry friends...worry no more! We think it's time for you to purchase this hands-free sandwich holder – and then purchase one for us too.
12 – HOT WATER BOTTLE KITTEN
Kao Corporation, a subsidiary of the BEST X-MAS PRESENTS FOR PAM Inc. brings you Nyantomo. Nyantomo is a soft and realistic cat with secret ...it's really a hot water bottle!
