Q. My Husband is forever losing his car keys. I am looking for a clever way to make sure he finds them where he left them.
A. The Buckle Up Key Holder is part of a key ring you can attach to his keys and when he comes home he clips it to the wall like a seat belt. Genius!

The Japanese really seem to love our quirky designs. Our Seat belt buckle key holder was recently featured on the gadgets section of a prime time show in japan.

Seatbelt keychain holder cleverly hangs your keys on the wall.

"It's tough to not like clever repurposed gadgets like this, especially when it would be so easy to do yourself. My one question: can the keychain double as a bottle opener? If so, I'm sold."

"Emotional Tea

Pick a mug to reflect your mood with these insulated porcelain mugs. Kitchen Genius."

"Today's buy comes from Thabto, whose design philosophy is "two heads are better than one". We couldn't agree more. This playful gadget, ideal for car lovers, uses seatbelt technology to ensure that your house and car keys are never lost again. It can be mounted to the wall in an appropriate place and offers a safe place for your keys. It's undoubtedly more convenient than down the back of the sofa or hidden in the wasteland that is the depths of your handbag."

After well over a year of trying to source a suppier for the Buckle Up Key Holder, we have finally got them in.
Produced from discontinued seatbelt buckles, this wall mounted key holder makes the perfect eco gift for anyone that keeps losing their car keys. Packaged in 100% recycled card.

Buckle Up - Keeps keys safe

"I had 26 units of beer last night!
Thanks to the clever chaps at THABTO, you can now measure every unit of booze in your drink. Cheers!"

These quality glasses have clever markings that tell you exactly how many units of alcohol is in your favorite beer, lager or wine. Probably not something you'd buy for yourself, unless you're a cautious drinker, or want a competition with your mates to see who can drink the most (We don't recommend that), instead they are the perfect quirky gift for anyone that likes a drink!

What's in your drink?

The Knuckle Duster Mug, Tom, Dick & Harry and Taste Explosion have been featured in a new book from Artpower International Publishing; Pack Your Life, which looks at clever packaging design.

These mugs have been cleverly engineered to eliminate the need for a handle by using double walled porcelain to keep your drink warm and your hand cool.

The Wonkey table wedge was featured in Zoo magaine this month:
"Winner of our new unofficial never-to-be-repeated genious gadget of the week."

"If you're one of those people that always finds themselves lumbered with THAT dodgy table in every pub or restaurant you go to, then this little things a godsend. Just whack it under the offending table leg, stabilising your pint and shot glasses."

We're excited to announce that both the WonKey & the Buckle Up Key Holder have been shortlisted for the prestigious Gift of the Year awards 2010.

The WonKey has been selected for the Hot Product Of The Year and the Buckle Up Key Holder has been shortlisted for both Hot Product Of The Year and Eco Gift Of The Year.
