Whilst browsing a brilliant blog called stickers and stuff, I came across this Froot Loops image. This cereal is one of my enduring memories of a holiday to Florida when I was 8 years of age...I need to buy some off the internet! Or I could buy this book of retro packaging instead. Both would be appreciated.

PS Just noticed the Pig Latin translation in the image - "ootfray oopslay". I like this detail muchly.

These mood bottle openers could help you to express your emotions - shocked, crazy or happy - when opening a bottle.

Available on Poketo, 3 for $40 or $14 each.

These tiny ray gun pendants are super - made from wood and measuring under an inch long, I love seeing the variety of designs in one image. Made by The Builder's Studio, there are lots of different ray guns available to buy, as well as being displayed for viewing on Flickr.

This scarf? Yes, it looks like a pencil.

Yes, I would like to wear it.

I rarely wish that I could knit but on this occasion, I would really love to learn how to knit, just to make something like this.

Emma Beddard made this, talented lady.

ToDryFor.com sell the best tea towels in the world! There are loads of super designs, though my particular favourite may well be these brilliant bricks, designed by Unity Peg. Who'd have thought you could dry your plates using a wall?

"A kit containing all you need to build your own kaleidoscope." Just what I've always wanted - the packaging is rather lovely, too. Buy one from the Tate Online shop.

Alla Kinda sell all sorts of wonderful illustrated items which radiate happiness, as well as having a super Flickr photostream.

Seeing as I've already posted one timepiece today, I may as well draw your attention to this Dali-inspired clock at the same time (Haha, time! Geddit? Ah, never mind...). It is rather wonderfully surreal and can be bought for £19.99 from Vertigo Interiors.

Oooh, I really like this futuristic/retro watch - designed by Will Alsop and available for £79 from Panik.

This looks like a whole lot of addictive fun. The Japanese Popping Edamame Keychain ($9.99 from ThinkGeek) contains three beans, the middle bean having one of 12 random faces printed on it. Furthermore, the beans are connected to some sort of elastic band, so they pop back in to be popped again as many times as you want. What more could anyone want from a keychain?

These monogrammed necklaces by Ritzy Misfit are super nice. I'd love a 'Z' hanging round my neck, though if you'd like another letter you can buy one here.

"With Reveal, time is always in the present. This timekeeper reveals the current time through a looking glass while fading the past and the future. If you are a person of the present, this watch is made specifically for you."

Designed by Daniel Will-Harris, buy it for $89 here at Watchisimo.

I like these (non-explosive) candles, shaped like a bomb and sticks of dynamite. Available from the Mystake shop.

The Pratesi Guitar Backpack (yours for just $398) is a leather guitar-shaped bag, complete with a built-in MP3 player speaker. It's a beauty.

Crayons rock - and these crayon rocks definitely rock.

Buy them for $8.99 here from imaginechildhood.com.

I would really love a poster of this painting by Brandon Bird, entitled "No One Wants to Play Sega with Harrison Ford". NES wins...but you have to feel a little bit sorry for Harrison Ford.

Yup, I'm posting about a tea towel. It's a strange world. But it's a cool tea towel.

£10.00 from the Design Museum shop, designed by I Saw It First.
