LITTLE ROCK — State-shaped Tables
What’s to love: Pick a state and 900 Blok will make a side or coffee table in the shape of your state in the color of your choice. Makes for a great conversation starter. So — what state is that?
What’s it do: The company makes tables of almost any state. (I imagine Alaska would be a little difficult with all those little islands.) The tables are carved from solid wood, are 13 inches high and vary in length and width from state to state. You can pick any Benjamin Moore paint color to match your decor. The tables sell for $400; side tables start at $200. More information is available at 900blok.com.
iBall Trailer Hitch Camera
What’s to love: You no longer have to eyeball it when lining up the ball and hitch on your vehicle and trailer.
What’s it do:
The monitor plugs into your vehicle’s cigarette lighter and the video camera mounts by magnet onto the back of your vehicle. The camera runs on a 9-volt battery. Images are transmitted wirelessly to the color monitor and the camera is submersible. The camera can also be used on the back of a camper for backing into a tight space. The iBall retails for $139.
