My Future House
I like to bookmark things that I might buy for my future house. BTW, I’m a huge geek so a lot of the things I like have a nerd-inspired look to them. Here’s a peek:
I don’t know why but I’ve always had a mini-crush on key racks. Yeah, I know that’s weird! I can just imagine stepping in the door and placing my keys on the key rack. I’m always paranoid about losing my keys or forgetting my keys the minute I close the door. This way I always know where it is and it’s easy to remember to grab on my way out. I love these DIY key racks by Design Sponge made by wood and wrapping paper! I have the CUTEST robot wrapping paper that would just be perfect for this!
I’ve also decided I must have a wall mounted bottle opener, especially one as cute as this! Can you tell I love useful things that also double as art?? I could probably make a diy project out of this one too and be able to use whatever stencil I want (ROBOTS? or ELEPHANTS?).
In my office, these ultra nerdy posters would be hanging on the wall:
Web 2.0 Poster
If you can’t see the details click here for the larger version
and The Online Communities Poster
which you can buy here.
I love maps and I love the internet!
And lastly, on my couch would sit these lovely DOS directories pillows (notice how the directories can be tailored to represent your interests?). I can see boyrobot shaking his head at this one. :)
These are not for sale but could easily be replicated with some silkscreening or for the very crafty ambitious…embroidery!

“I’ve always had a mini-crush on key racks.”
I guarantee i will not hear this again today.
I have a wall mounted bottle opener (came with my house) but for some reason i can never find a bottle opener! during those rare times i have to open a non-screw off cap

Cool ideas! Don’t forget about the ice cream scoops from the dollar store mounted to your wall that double as knick knack holders! LOL!
