1. Tetris Pots: Plant & Play [link]
If you’ve ever tried to breastfeed your plants, it may be time to admit that you have a serious garden coddling problem. Why not channel all that extra energy into playing Tetris with their tetromino shaped pots? After awhile you may even forget there was anything growing in them; which means you’ll finally stop killing your plants with kindness and see those Perennials through to adulthood; or possibly subject them to Tetris induced neglect. Eh, it’s a start.

16. Musical Shower by Hae Lim [link]
If you like listening to tunes while showering, then you probably have a shower radio or stereo in your bathroom. But why not kill two birds with one stone. What if your shower head were a stereo also? I mean the little holes already look like a speaker grill. Just imagine a digital MP3 player that detaches from the shower head/speaker. You could load up your favorite tunes and use it like any other MP3 player. What sets it apart is the ability to dock it to your shower head activating the external speaker and when you’re done, just grab it and go.

How could anyone say no to a person sitting across from them at this table? One look down at Han’s frozen scream and they’d do whatever you want.

18. Maze door chain [link]
The question is no longer “can they get in” but rather “can you get out?” This funky chain lock design is anything but fire-safe and far more a novelty than a functional piece of door hardware, but it is still rather ingenious nonetheless.
Constructed from titanium alloy, fixed in place with 10 different screws and load-tested to a whopping 700 pounds of force, if you can not figure this out you are essentially as good as dead.
