Extension cords you won’t want to hide. We didn’t aim to reinvent the wheel, we just wanted to dress it up in some some new duds.
Cloth covered extension cords are woven in Massachusetts using three copper wires, each stranded and covered in PVC insulation. The wires are twisted together, padded, and braided with a durable cotton weave. Cords are then assembled in New York using solid brass plug blades that are set in a rubber plug (which will resist chemicals and stay flexible in extremely low temperatures). These extension cords are recommended to be used in the home and shop for small appliances. $38.00 each.

The Play Soapbox Cart by Normann Copenhagen
Play has arisen from the idea of play and building a child’s imagination. Jesper K. Thomsen has re-interpreted the classic soapbox cart to create a series of quality children’s furniture. The expression is random and homemade, with oblique lines, compound angles and such humorous details as the green projections contrasting the clear yellow color.
