These days everyone should be aware about the use of plastic bags. With big companies still handing them out it’s really up to us to make a difference. Did you know the average person uses and throws away 290 plastic bags in a year? That’s insane!

Green Aid is a handy little gadget that makes it easier to be green. Each grenade stores a durable, reusable bag that’s ready to be used whenever you shop and can be easily attached to your pants, jacket or backpack.

Just clip it on and you are ready to fight the war on plastic. Personally, I’ve been reusing bags for years and years. I guess you could call me a War on Plastic Vet.

Oh the stories I could tell.

One time, while shopping, I got two bags of cashews for the price of one. I think the cashier possibly rang it through wrong, but I didn’t realize until I made it home. And man, those free cashews tasted twice as good as the others. Ohhhh yeaaah.

If you are anything like me, small rodents give you the heebie-jeebies. Fortunately this little Dormouse isn’t the furry variety, but the functional type instead. It’s designed to hold doors open without letting them squeak closed. Best of all, you have to kick it in the butt to fit it under a door. Take that mouse!

This little mouse doorstop is made out recycled rescued wood, making each product unique from one another. How’s that for a good idea? Another good idea is the leather loop, which allows you to hang this door mouse on the doorknob when you aren’t using it.

So very mice. So very mice indeed.

Last time we checked out an amplifier for an iPhone, now here’s one that’s a little different and 100% silicone. Used to enhance and amplify the sound of your phone, the Apple iPhone 4 Sound Amplifier uses old-fashioned acoustical science. Kinda like the Sinatra of iPhone stands.

This sound amplifier adds up to 12 decibels of sound pressure to your iPhone 4′s speakers. With no wires to attach or power outlets, you can enjoy loud and clear sound without any battery power.

Simply slip it into your iPhone and enjoy your music. And yes, in case you haven’t noticed, it also doubles as a pretty sweet stand which is perfect for watching movies with way better sound.

Recently a winner for the Spark Awards, this cool door handle is designed to be removed and double as a flashlight. Not too shabby. Let’s just hope you don’t have kids that forget to put it back and you’re only realizing this after eating Aunt Patties famous cookies and in desperate need of a sit down. If you know what I’m saying.

Or your house is on fire.

Not sure what is more urgent.

The LED flashlight illuminated door handle is just a concept, but it works. And to top it off, every time you use the door, energy is generated from turning the handle to charge up the light. It has a low powered running light too so you can always find it in the dark and there’s an on/off switch to save energy.

But enough about concepts, check out these bad boys:

They’re real and they’re spectacular. Light saber door handles.

Had you fooled didn’t I?

This novelty gift item is 100% legal and it’s the perfect gift for that free spirited friend of yours. That’s code for hippy.

Grow in water Marijuana. Genius. I think I can safely say this little gadget was invented while someone was high, but stranger things have happened I guess.

It can grow up to 600% larger in just a few hours when submerged under water. But geez man, a few hours? That’s like forever dude. What the heck are we going to do in the meantime man? That’s like longer than an hour or something.

But hey man, you know what we just put the water in? A pot man.

That’s like irony dude.

Sweet.

2. Tea Lights – Glow In the Dark Tea Bags

Okay, this one isn’t actually tea, but..it looks like it. Each pack consists of a cup filled with a chemical intermediate and a tea bag containing fluorescent molecules. The light only appears when the tea bag is dropped into the cup which results in a beautiful chemical reaction.

The Tea Light is a pretty nifty invention but only lasts awhile. Hey, nothing lasts forever, even perfection.

These slick and fancy tea infusers actually come from Bed Bath and Beyond. Not only do they look nice, they are great because you never have to fish it out of your cup or mug. The stand will stop the drips and also let you keep the leaves aside for re-brewing another cup.

Suitably enough, this tea infuser kinda looks like a broom. A broom that comes in lots of amazing colours. And the best colour for a Tea Infuser? The Teal, of course.

The Arta Tea Infuser Saucer looks great even when you aren’t using it. But when you DO want to use it, all you have to do is turn it upside down onto your cup. Best of all, while it steeps, it also keeps your tea nice and hot at the same time. Genius.

Introducing Leaf Ties. Possibly the coolest reimagining of a boring product I have come across. It suddenly has made the zap strap ‘want-worthy’. Each pack of Leaf ties contains 12 beautifully designed straps, some with one leaf and some with two.

These not only feel great, but they also do an excellent job at organizing cables and look great while doing it.

My favorite thing to use them for is organizing the loose cables of my Apple products. There’s something about adding a leaf to my apple that makes it seem like they were meant for each other.

This cute little Sparrow Keyring comes right out of the pages of a Disney story. This little birdie goes everywhere your keys go and keeps an eye out for trouble too. Whenever you spot trouble just give this little birdie a whistle and he’ll be sure to grab the nearest hero to save the day.

Each Sparrow Keyring comes complete with it’s very own little birdhouse where he’ll rest at the end of the day and enjoy the view. Now you’ll always know where your keys are, and have a little friend to take with on your next adventure.

My little birds name is Chuckles. He likes to sit at the edge of my pocket and peak out while I work. And even though I whistle while i work, my co-workers don’t seem to mind. They don’t even seem to get tired of this:

Hmm I bet you’re wondering how I know his name is Chuckles?

Let’s just say…a little bird told me.

The Movie Peg may appear simple, but it’s some serious smart portable iPhone stand awesomeness.

The Movie Peg for the iPhone props up your iPhone vertically and horitzally so you can use FaceTime or watch movies without using your hands. Best of all it’s teeny so it can fit in your pocket, and best best of all it comes in a schwack load of awesome colours. And best best best of all it is made out of 100% recyclable materials.

Groovy.

Sorry folks. Had to do it.

Memo Mountain is one of my new favorite office accessories. It’s a cork board that’s perfectly cut into the shape of a cute little mountain range. It can be mounted on your wall for you to stick all your pictures and notes on and magically leaves no sticky residue behind. But here’s the kicker:

Yup. The push pins are little trees! Dark green and light green push pins are included to decorate your entire mountain with a forest of pins. Brilliant!

This cool item makes the perfect gift, and since I’m a sappy guy, I’d probably include a little note with it as well.

Each cork board comes with 9 Fir Tree push pins and the back of the box can be used as the sky. But if you are hardcore like me, you just might want to paint your entire wall blue, because hey, why not.
