halley floor to floor lamp

The Halley Floor To Floor Lamp is one of five cool outdoor lighting fixtures featured by Spot Cool Stuff. And it’s not hard to see why. Flexible, modular arcs of light shine down upon your outdoor scene. And the whole lamp is waterproof — not to the point you’d want to throw it into the pool, but you can leave the Halley Floor To Floor Lamp outside in the wind, cold and rain. The main downside is the $3,200 price tag. If that’s a bit beyond your budget, consider the less expensive but less outdoor-friendly Halley Floor To Wall Lamp instead.

gopro hero3

For years now, GoPro’s durable and wearable mini video cameras have been the smallest, lightest, most powerful way to digitally document your life. With the new HERO3 HD, GoPro becomes even smaller and lighter (and a host of other positive qualities ending in -er too).

The HERO3 comes in three varieties. The White Edition and Silver Edition are upgrades to GoPro’s HERO1 and HERO2, respectively. Both feature wifi connectivity, a dive lens and waterproof housing.

The GoPro HERO3 Black Edition, however, is in a league of its own. In addition to all the features of the White and Silver models, the Black Edition HERO3 is capable of capturing an amazing 4k video at 12 frames per second or full 1080p HD video at 60 frames per second. That’s better video quality than you’ll see on some HD television stations!

Check out the full specs for all three GoPro HERO3s after the same video, below. Prices start at $240.

“industrial romance” ring

The ring’s textured styling gives the piece a fierce look. But what makes this ring special is how it tapers in back. Because even the fierce-looking want to be comfortable. US$580

magnogrip magnetic wristband

Follow Me on Pinterest What’s the best selling home improvement item on Amazon.com for Christmas 2012? Surprise! It’s the MagnoGrip. Surely, Amazon’s 48% discount has something to do with that. But so does the usefulness of this wristband, which magnetically holds nails, screws, nuts or other little metal items while working. Incredibly handy — but keep it away from the magnetic strip on your credit card. US$10

fern and moss wall art

Follow Me on Pinterest

Hanging Fern and Moss Wall Art in your dinning room is like planting a vertical jungle on your wall. It’s made from real, living plant material. Yet — at least according to this review of the Fern and Moss Wall Art — it doesn’t require watering and isn’t a magnet for bugs. The large size in the photo above sells for over $1,000 but other options go for as little as $198. That’s not a lot of green.
