lovesac eskimo phur

Somehow, the alternative furniture makers over at LoveSac managed to create a furniture material that’s soft while also being durable, washable and completely, utterly, ridiculously lucious.

Eskimo Phur (not related to actual Eskimos) can be used to cover most of the sofas, loveseats and cushions in LoveSac’s furniture lineup. If you don’t like the color simply replace it with something new.

Check out a close-up photo (below) and video (above) after the jump.

led swimming pool jellyfish

Jellyfish in your swimming pool = bad.

LED-lit piece of jellyfish art in your pool = very cool looking.

The Swimming Pool Jellyfish from Ocean Art float on top of the water but have tentacles that reach down. The whole thing is lit in light green or purple (your choice) with LED bulbs, creating a vondrous and eery effect. These jellyfish are about the size of the real thing but, fortunately, don’t sting. $45

fossil sink

The Fossil Sink has been more than 60 million years in the making. Sort of. While the sink itself has only been available for three years, the spiral corkscrew design is inspired by fossils from the Cretaceous Period. It’s made of concrete (the sink, not the fossils) and gives any bathroom a modern yet prehistoric look. Available through High Tech Design.

Is your car garage so cluttered that it doesn’t have space for, you know, a car? Here’s a do-it-yourself sliding storage system for garage ceilings may help. Designed by The Family Handyman magazine, the system relies on reinforced plastic totes suspended from the ceiling. (Using reinforced plastics key if you don’t want things to go horribly wrong). The totes are hung on plywood strips allowing them to slide back and forth. Label the contents of each tote on its side or underneath and finding your Christmas ornaments will never be difficult again.
