The Neck Hammock provides ultimate relaxation and pain relief

NEWS – If you work at a desk all day or like most people spend hours looking down at a computer or phone screen you probably experience some degree of neck pain. I know I do and it seems like nothing helps to relieve that nagging discomfort. The Neck Hammock is a cervical traction device created by a physical therapist that helps you gently stretch out the muscles in your neck. Providing a dose of relief from aches, kinks, and pain in as little as 10 minutes a day.

It’s basically a sling that cradles your head and neck that’s easily adjustable to hang at the right height from a doorknob or railing. How high you hang it and how long you use it is entirely up to you. And even if you don’t suffer from any kind of pain, it’s a perfect way to just relax and zen out for a few minutes after a long day.

Neck Hammock is hand washable, portable, and lightweight. Making it great for in-home use or stretching out post-travel stiffness.

It even comes complete with a travel pouch, eye cover, a “do not open” door sign, a guided meditation audio file, and instructions.

The Neck Hammock is available on The Grommet for $49.95.

The cure for the common wine fridge

NEWS – If your home lacks room for a wine cellar but you want something a little nicer than the common wine fridge, look at the Sand & Birch Opale wine cellar.  This piece is as much of a modern-art sculpture as it is a wine fridge.  Sand & Birch tells us the Opale evokes “a precious black stone wedged and gem-setted in a white, smooth base that enhances the equilibrium and purity of its design, creating a contrast that emphasize the elegant break between the elliptical shape of its vertical body and the roundness of its foothold.”

In more practical terms, the body of the Opale is made of metal and hard polyurethane with an insulating smoked glass door.  Its self-regulating controls maintains perfect conditions for red, white, and sparkling wines.  The automatic door opens with a remote control or by touch.  It stands about 83 inches high and 22 inches deep, with a base that’s about 53″ wide.  Opale holds about 60 bottles of wine.  The interior is lighted with LEDs.

If you want this beautiful wine cellar, you need to be prepared for a price that’s more expected for a sculpture.  The Sand & Birch Opale wine cellar is $35,000.00 at Saatchi Art.

It’s a “party in your pants”, or rather around your pants, with the Hidden Flap Belt

Hyddin has developed a Hidden Flap Belt in which the flap is stored on the inside of the belt or behind the belt. It may not be high tech, but it is a cool idea. Having the flap hidden ensures a slimmer profile and a tidier, more professional look. The belt is currently a Kickstarter campaign that will end on October 10. This is an all-or-nothing campaign, but no worries, they have already met their fundraising goal.

They have two types of belts available: the web belt (made from high-quality polyester) and the leather belt.

All of the belts have angle cut ends to “make them easier to tuck behind the belt.”  The web belts have added reinforcement with “ribbon finished holes” and come in solid colors or come with patterns.

The leather belts come in black or brown leather.

All belts are 1.5″ in width and come in different lengths to accommodate your size (30″ – 38″ long or custom made according to your needs). A single web belt is $35 and a single leather belt is $59. After pledging, you will have to wait for the campaign to end at which time you will be sent a survey where you will select the style(s) and size(s) of your belt(s). If this interests you, head over to the Hidden Flap Belt Kickstarter page to select your type of pledge.

Gosh, it’s simple ideas like this that make me say, “Now, why didn’t I think of that?”
