Bedtime just got easier.

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.

Get Props!

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.

Plus Size Model

Plank was one of our first products after Rock Band, the viral product that launched Ilovehandles. Plank solved a personal problem for us, and we thought we might be able to sell them. Mostly, it was for us. We quickly realized that we weren’t the only ones who appreciated Plank’s simplicity and utility.

When we launched Plank, the idea was that you could unload everything from your pockets onto a shelf that is no bigger than it has to be. As phones got bigger, so did Plank. For most phones today, the Plus size is simply a better fit.

The wait is finally over the for those of you who requested a Walnut or Black Plank Plus. There is no longer a tradeoff between the size you need and the finish you want.

Tickled Pink…and White

“There has been a great diversity of opinion on the subject, but the generally accepted rule is pink for the boy and blue for the girl. The reason is that pink being a more decided and stronger color is more suitable for the boy, while blue, which is more delicate and dainty, is prettier for the girl.”

-Ladies Home Journal, 1918

At ILOVEHANDLES, we think pink can be both for girls and for boys… just like our minimalist smartphone mount, Barnacle. Today, after a number of your requests, we’re adding two new colors to the Barnacle family, a strong pink and an uncontroversial white.

Pick your favorite colors, or buy a set!

Switch It Up!

coat-rack-with-a-lot-of-hooks

We like hooks. They’re an easy way to keep things organized and accessible.

Problem is, we like hooks a little too much, and most wall-mounted coat racks have only four or five. We stack scarf on top of hat on top of jacket on those precious few hooks. The jacket at the bottom gets buried, forgotten, and sad.

So we came up with a solution, and today we’re excited to announce our newest product for the home, Switchboard. Switchboard is a wall-mounted coat rack with 25 (!) triangular wood hooks, just as wide as any other rack. Each hook rotates down when you need it and rests against the wall when you don’t.

Chop chop!

We know many of you have been cooking a lot this holiday season. And if you’re like us, you don’t have a good place to dry and store your cutting boards. Wedged behind the faucet? Awkwardly on a drying rack? Propped up in a cabinet?

Our best product ideas are born from a real need. We combined cutting board storage with a knife rack to make our newest kitchen product, Chops.
Chops consists of two solid wood cutting boards that magnetically connect to two sides of a knife rack. It’s a perfect place to store and dry your cutting boards. Its base keeps the stand stable, with or without cutting boards attached.

Set in Concrete

bridge

As designers, we can be terrible to shop for. We can’t buy anything without first giving a quick critique. Recently we were looking for a set of accessories to organize our studio’s desk, and we came up short. We are happy to say that we finally found one:
slabs-group

Introducing our latest *Workshop product, Slabs. Slabs are modular, low-lying desk accessories made with smooth concrete, hand sanded and sealed. There’s a tray for pins and clips, a pen stand, a tape dispenser, and a dock. Each piece is 4” x 4” and 1” tall.

We hope you have a wonderful holiday season. And if you’re looking for a gift for that exacting someone, think about a set of Slabs.

Best,
Rich and Avik

*Workshop products are made in the US. They are produced in small runs and individually numbered.

All Growed Up

barnacle-big-and-small

When Barnacle came into the world, he was just the right size for iPhone 4. With the 6 and 6 Plus, Barnacle started to look like he was wearing his father’s suit. We are happy to let you know the awkward phase is over. Barnacle 2 has had a bit of a growth spurt and now comfortably fits your larger phones.

We also took the opportunity to update and simplify the color scheme a bit. Get the new Barnacle in bright blue, tangerine orange, and classic black.

Speaking of things that needed an update, we are happy to finally take the wraps off of our website’s third major iteration. Give it a test drive and buy lots of stuff…you know, just to make sure everything works properly.
