Herb-n Art Toys: Read JS Review | Buy It ($9 – $60)
We know it’s fun to run out to the drugstore and get a friend a Chia-Pet as an “ironic” gift. Well, irony is dead. Get them an artistic alternative that can also grown microgreens out of its head.

We’re all looking for ways to be more green. And one of those great ways is by reusing objects that we often throw away. For instance, our friend recently turned us on to reusing plastic take out containers as tupperware, so we can help save the earth and a little hard-earned cash at the same time. Blightster, a new product designed by Chilean artist Rodrigo Alonso follows the same approach. He’s taken a container that is often tossed out, incorporated a light within it and thus, transformed it into a versatile lamp.
