The store is starting to fill up with some really unique stuff.

We just received a bunch of new lamps from our friends at Roost. Here are a couple that we really love.

First up is the super cool Owl lamp that will have

Next is a medium and large sized wood carved Staghorn lamp.

But, personally I’m most excited about this little Japanese USB thing – Tengu. This is a USB-powered character that lights up and lip-syncs to music, your voice or other noise around you. Basically, your days of being lonely while working at your computer are now over.

Here’s one of the many videos on YouTube that feature Tengu – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILpsUrZYGmQ

And we’re getting a bunch of new clothing next week from Art in the Age and Poketo. Get excited!
