It has always seemed a little loopy to us to have belt loops on our pants AND a keeper loop on our belt. While we were trying to get rid of the keeper loop, we wondered if we could also get rid of the belt buckle. Could we make the cleanest looking belt the world has ever seen?

We are really exited to announce… 

BORING BELT

Boring Belt works like any other belt, but the hidden hook and magnets make it so you’ll never have to wear all that clutter around your waist again.

It can be both casual and formal. It works with jeans and with a suit or dress.

Boring Belt is painstakingly crafted in the US.

We are launching two new products: Topo Bowls and Plant Lab. Both are meant for the home but connect us to nature, both are beautiful but functional, and both are made in the US.

TOPO BOWLS

Topo lines are beautiful. That’s just a fact. You know what else is beautiful? Lake Tahoe! Crater Lake! Bear Lake!

Lake topography is technically called bathymetry, but who’s ever heard of that? We took the bathymetry of iconic lakes, and made them into bowls. They look great on their own, but you can also use them as a fruit bowl or a valet for your wallet, keys, etc.

PLANT LAB

Why buy plants when you can grow them? Take cuttings of your favorite plants, add water, and then wait for your own little test tube babies. Plant Lab is made from a solid piece of walnut with slots for eight test tubes. A slightly recessed lip allows each tube to slide perfectly into place. It is easy to hang and test tubes are included

Six years later, Slabs is still one of our favorite product lines. They were written up in the Seattle Times and Core77, they were sold in West Elm, and in Chip and Joanna Gaines’s store…and we love using them ourselves. Slabs have kept our workspaces tidy with a place for pens, scissors, loose change, keys, tape, and a phone. But what about our wallet? Or holiday cards? Or extra business cards? Or our ice cream cone sticker?

Meet the new and improved Phone Slab, redesigned with multiple slots of varying widths for your phone and more.

Oh, and, for those of you who have been waiting patiently for walnut Switchboards, they’re back! Order before they sell out and are on backorder for a year. (We’ll try not to let it happen again.)

Putting kids to bed can be hard. (We’re happy for you if it’s not, but no one wants to hear you brag.) Who can blame them? For kids, the bed is a pretty boring place. Well, it used to be.

Snoozefests are beautiful duvet sets that turn your comforter and pillows into fun activities.

The Maze Duvet is one big (big!) maze, with 19 stops along the way from START to END. The Word Search Duvet has names of different animals hidden on it, and the animals are printed on the pillows.

We probably shouldn’t recommend you use pens on them because we can’t guarantee anything will wash out, but we do think red ink would look really cool on them.

Each set comes with a twin duvet and two pillow cases.

SNOOZEFESTS. Play on.

We all know about coasters that keep water off your table, but what about a coaster that helps things dry?

Introducing Props drying coasters!

Not everything goes in the dishwasher. We were tired of water getting trapped inside glasses, water bottles, and pots when we dry them. So we created these silicone coasters to prop (ahem) them up and let air circulate.

Props come in a set of four with a little rack to store them by the edge of your sink. After you use one, put it on the rack and let it drip dry.

PROPS. Live and let dry.

It’s pretty amazing to learn that Imran Chaudhri used a Rock Band to test an early prototype of the Apple Watch.

Stowaway is a clean, minimalist, solid stainless steel cuff. Simple and understated, it looks great on everyone.

So, why is it called Stowaway? 

When we present our products, people quickly catch on to a theme and ask, “What else does it do?” As usual, Stowaway has hidden functionality: This cuff is magnetic (another theme of ours). You can use it to hold any number of things: paperclips, screws, nails, pins, drill bits, etc. Use it as a tool when you need it; enjoy its good looks when you don’t.

Stowaway is available in two sizes. The smaller size fits wrists 7″ around and under. The larger size fits wrists 7″-8″.

Our latest product is all black, so it just makes sense to announce it on Black Friday. It’s holiday travel season, and we have more than a few problems with travel bottles:

1) There’s not always a place to put them in the shower.
2) You have to shake and/or wait for the goo to get to the cap.
3) They get wet, and then they get the inside of your bag wet.
4) You forget which goo you put in which bottle.
5) There’s nothing cool about them.

We should say we had these problems with travel bottles, because we dare say we solved them. Introducing Nunchucks!

Here’s why we love Nunchucks:

1) They hang anywhere, on any hook, around any shower handle.
2) The cap is always facing down, so the goo settles right where you want it to be.
3) They easily hang on the outside of your gym bag.
4) Nunchucks come with labels to mark your bottles: soap, shampoo, conditioner, or lotion.
5) Nunchucks are cool.

OK, not really, but we did re-invent them.

We often describe our popular Notepads as reusable sticky notes, so it made sense to expand the line beyond your phone and laptop. Our newest notepads are small, square and yellow!

Like standard sticky notes, you can write on it with any ballpoint pen and stick it anywhere. Unlike standard sticky notes, you can erase it with any eraser, remove it, and stick it somewhere else.Stick one on your desk and stay on top of your to-do list. Stick one on your water bottle and stay hydrated. Stick one on your fridge for your deep thoughts. Stick one on [noun] to [verb].

That’s quite an alliteration. Check them out.
