80s toys were simply magnificent. The ultimate 80s office toy is back – Pin Art – and it looks as cool as ever. Pin Art is a clear casing that houses thousands of blunt pins for you to sink objects into and create 3D impressions. The first thing we did was sink our face into it and then the stapler. Pin Art brings the fun and innovation of the 80s into the now and onto your desktop.
Price : £ 9.99

So you’ve lit up the sky with our beautiful Flying Lanterns and our ever-so-romantic Love Heart Flying Lanterns and you’re looking for something a little bit different. Well now you can light up the sky in an altogether more colourful fashion with these Rainbow Lanterns. Exclusive to us here at IWOOT (we’re not showing off honest) they’re the perfect way to accentuate a garden party New Year’s Eve a special birthday or any number of occasions. Available in all the colours of the rainbow in a pack of 7 (that’s red orange yellow green blue indigo and violet) your package will contain a right royal mixture of the lot to make it as colourful as possible. Like the other similar lanterns it’s as easy as anything to get these pretties on the move. Simply find an open space (beaches and fields work extremely well) light the wick and watch as the heat from the light gently lifts the lanterns up up and away. Being completely bio-degradable they won’t enlarge your carbon footprint or cause you any unnecessary environmental guilt so feel free to set off as many as you like. No matter the occasion setting some of these off into the night sky is a beautiful and colourful way to celebrate.
Price : £ 13.99

Possibly the best wind-up toy ever invented the Racing Grannies are to geriatric speedway what Ferrari is to Formula One. As anyone who has been on the receiving end of a Zimmer-frame will know grannies are formidable movers with legendary stamina and these delightful wind-ups are testament to their endurance. With expressions of steely determination and complete with go-faster cardigans these two are just a few winds away from the race of their lives. It’s time to have your own Gran National! Set of 2 wind-up grannies. Clashing outfits silver hair droopy breasts and a snazzy zimmerframe. Adjustable arms so the Grannies can be in ‘Stand-up’ mode or bent to ‘Race’ mode. Made of plastic.

No you’ve not wandered into some Dali-esque nightmare world where up is down left is right and people eat cakes out of teacups – this is nothing more than a quirky cake mould. And what an attractive one it is too! If you’re planning on having some extremely well-to-do and important dignitaries round for afternoon tea and cake you would do well to get yourself a set of these Tea Cupcakes and combine the two – they even come with their own saucers for an extra presentational flourish. Rather than wallowing in the oh-so predictable doldrums of paper cake cases you can now take tea and cake with an air of civility. Your cake is now a Tea Cupcake. Or a Teacup Cake. Or maybe a Tea Cup Cake. Either way it’s bound to be all the more delicious. Made of silicone and totally reusable all you have to do to have perfect Tea Cupcakes is oil the moulds pop the batter in and stick them in the oven. Before you know it you’ll be entertaining only the very best company with only the very best cakes!

Tea bags are all well and good but if you’re after a truly great cuppa then you need leaves. And once you’ve realised that you need a seriously cool way of infusing it and there’s no cooler way to do it than with this retro Tea Sub. This Beatles-esque slice of sub-aquatic splendour not only makes your tea much tastier it also gives your brew a nice sixties vibe as well. It’s small enough to go in your mug and it has a nice chain-link cord to help you bob it about under the surface to ensure full infusion. There’s also a neat little swing door so you can actually get your leaves in there in the first place. All in all it’s a super little mug-bound day-brightener perfect for tea fanatics and Beatles fans alike.
