Traditional Thai & Chinese sky lanterns, beautifully delicate papery balloons. Sky Lanterns date back to millennia in Thai & Chinese tradition, for the symbolic belief that troubles are carried away with the glowing lantern. They are used during many festivals, with the release of hundreds of lanterns creating an enchanting spectacle. Essentially, they are large, beautifully delicate, papery balloons with a simple card wick suspended in the base. Once this wick is lit, the balloon slowly inflates with hot air until it gently floats into the sky, casting a flickering glow as it rises. ...

Possibly the coolest little watch we've had the chance to slap our eyes on. Yes it should be clap, but let's not get too bogged down in semantics. The Slap Watch is smooth, it's silky, & if it isn't the cleverest little watch design this decade, then slap us in the face with a wet kipper & put jam in our ears.

Never before has putting a watch on been so easy & quite so much fun, just straighten it out, the slap it across your wrist, job done. Coming in three colours to suit your wardrobe, mood or skin colour, the Slap Watch... hang on, skin colour? Blue is not as far as we are aware a common skin colour, well, outside of the Orkneys in February at any rate. No matter. They come in three colours, & are so much fun to put on & take off you'll be slapping away all day. Simple, stylish & practical. ...

For years now these tough-wearing boots have been the footwear of choice for all builders & construction workers out there. Warm, cosy & stylish, it was a no-brainer really. All of which begs the question, why have they so far only stayed consigned to the outdoor world? Well not anymore, not with the Slipperlands around. As warm & comforting as you would expect, the Slipperlands have been redesigned for use at home in front of the TV watching your favourite daytime tv shows. We are big fans of Cash in the Attic personally. Available in either men or women's, the Slipperland puts to an end years of wasted slipper potential. Dreaml&. ...

Sometimes there is nothing better than chilling out & enjoying a cuppa with no distractions. But if you’re keen to avoid the embarrassment of announcing your ‘me time’ to your busy friends or colleagues then make a statement by sipping out of one of our cool Sloth Mugs. Known for their laziness & excessive sleeping (about 18 hours a day if you’re wondering) sloths are an animal to admire for two reasons. Firstly, they have 12-inch tongues (who knew!) & secondly, they are the definitely the most chilled out creatures of the jungle canopy. Many people say that we can learn a lot from our animal cousins & we have to agree. It’s time to ‘be more sloth’ & the Sloth Mug is a great way to start. ...

Nicely insulated walls to keep your brew toasty, a drinking slot which allows steam to escape & a nice ribbed sleeve to keep your hands cool. & whilst there’s no denying that’s all good the greatest bit has to be the lovely design. We defy anyone not to feel warm & a bit fuzzy inside after gazing at these chilled-out sloths for just a minute or two. ...

Calling all SLUSH PUPPi E aficionados. If you’re already at your happiest when guzzling down one of the fabulously icy treats imagine the pleasure you’ll feel when using the proper SLUSH PUPPi E Cups & Straws to do so! Our 9oz (or 256ml) paper cups & spoon straws are seriously iconic. In fact, when the Genie HQ crew tried them out (surely it would be wrong for us not to test them?) we were instantly awash with childhood memories of grazed knees, sunny days & stained tongues. & if that isn’t greatness enough, although our straws & cups are disposable, each pack contains 20 of each – just think of all the blue tongues that will be created! ...
