Lanterns are a great way to spice up your home, with special mention to the outdoor part of your home. And while we have seen some either placed in the lawn or some on pools during special occasions, here are some floating lanterns you may want to consider.

Taking its cue from Oriental-inspired setups, these lamps contain ten tea lights, are made from waterproof and flame-retardant paper. Should they come to a point of being useless, don’t worry about stocking up on trash since these lanterns are 100% biodegradable.

These floating lanterns could be a useful addition to any home and cost just about $22 from Curiousite.

Parents would normally turn to cribs but given the practicality of things these days, some would rather improvise due to the limited use of such an aid especially for the ones living in small spaces. However, the GRO furniture is more than a crib. Rather it grows with your child as time passes.

This has something to do with the fact that the crib can transform from a modular crib into a bed and a desk that should technically “grow with your child” as the years come. So rather than worry about adding more clutter to your “grown out” furnishings, here is one that can actually be flexible and of use as your child grows.

Here is a keen lighting solution for people who don’t exactly have the luxury of space. The Flat Light Poster is an actual poster that comes with an image of a desk lamp which you can actually plug in. The Flat Light Poster was designed by Finn Maggee and is one of those rare pieces of art that manages to be practical too, which is partly what inspired Finn to create it in the first place.

Don’t worry because this light poster does not heat up. They are a limited edition piece with only 50 of them available. They are priced at $195 each.

This armoire may project a familiar shape if you are fond of watching David Blane and other magicians when it is time to cut a person in half. But realistically, this is actually a mobile closet in disguise. The armoire is pegged with swords but don’t worry about sharp objects when you open it. They are actually the acrylic shelves that holds your stuff when you need to store and organize clothes or even books.

And as you would guess, if you feel there is too much holders, you can always take out some and provide more room for hanged clothes which you don’t want to get crumpled. The Magician Sword Box Armoire is a brainchild of Rafael Morgan.

For the people who want something ingenious when it comes to cleaning up some waste, you don’t have to use your actual vacuum cleaner as a whole to get the job done. As you know, the important part of a vacuum is the actual unit the sips the dirt and garbage out of the messy flooring. But rather than worry about cleaning it up later, here is a disposable way wherein you can just use an old bucket to store the waste after vacuuming.

The concept is also ideal for vacuum cleaners that have broken holders. Rather than buy a new one and leave a perfectly functioning vacuum on the shelf, this alternative can save you some big bucks. The BucketVac is a very simple concept whose name says it all: a shop-vac attachment that easily fits on the top of any 5-gallon bucket. Just snap it into place, and you have something to clean up any wet or dry spills.

All bodybuilders and strength athletes would be very familiar with this term, plateau. Don’t worry, it’s not that bad. Hehe, it’s a cute bed. Looks pretty solid and suited for those houses with the woodish theme. I’d get one of these if I was a nature person. Would probably suit the house theme pretty well.

Check out this enormous bed in the anime. Well, this looks even bigger than the World’s Largest Bed. Now if we can all design big beds like this, we won’t have to worry about size and just let the whole family sleep in the same bed.
