good morning and happy sunday! we’re deep into the heart of the holiday weekend and as much as we’re thankful for the things we have, it also happens to be the biggest shopping time of the year.

just when it seemed we had everything we could ever want or need, i came across some fascinating new gadgets that make life even more convenient and fun, aka, grown-up toys.
an older friend of mine tells me how in his youth it seemed like each day people would marvel and gasp, “what will they think of next?” and comment “well, everything’s been invented now!” turns out we’re far from it and the hits just keep on coming.

in this day and age we all want to consume less, buy goods that will last and have qualities that will truly help us become more efficient. of course, some things are just for fun and beauty!

these are just some of the hundreds of items i came across in the tech world that i’d love to have or give.

of all the things that last, tech is the one area that continues to change and evolve no matter how well we plan and buy. but some trends are here to stay like solar power and wireless capablities.

this turntable converts records into digital recordings.
my old-fashioned streak always looks for ways to find the old and new merging together. like the gramophone for example!

how much fun it would be to show all the kids our old home movies. maybe a projector like this would get dad in the mood!
this great tool takes words right off the page and onto your hard drive. perfect for those passages you want to remember and re-read without having to try to find it or earmark pages.

ok one more, a pretty audio cluch by rebecca minkoff.
i definitely fell in deep and could go on an on with the never ceasing array of amazing new ideas and inventions. but it’s a beautiful day and time to get out and enjoy it. maybe i’ll do something radical and leave my phone home. enjoy the rest of your weekend!

I like new tech things, but not the prices!
I do love the designs, though; the creativity of the designs.
So many things built around the iPhone!
