The Jack Rack from Pluginz
Ever lose your keys somewhere within your home? The chances of that are less likely if you use a Jack Rack, a keychain holder that looks like an amplifier. Plus you'll have the coolest keychain holder in the neighborhood!

Offered by Pluginz, a company co-owned by Dan Jacobs of metal band Atreyu, the Jack Rack is a decorative miniature replica of an amp with multiple inputs and a matching number of keychain jacks that you mount to the wall. Just plug your keychain in when you get home like you would plug in a guitar and they'll be right there waiting for you when you need to head to your next gig, even if it is just a run to the grocery store. The Jack Rack is available in various designs including one that honors the line of very famous Marshall Amplifiers. To place an order visit http://store.pluginzkeychains.com/

Mantra Candles from The 125 Collection

The holiday season is a time that inspires light and love and The 125 Collection has a line of "quote candles" that's been praised by the likes of the Huffington Post, Celebuzz and Essence Magazine and touted by personalities like Jenni "JWOWW" Farley and Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi.

The candles come in black matte jars emblazoned with mantras like "Good Vibes Only" and the humorous "Namast'ay in Bed" or with quotes that are a bit sassier like "More Issues Than Vogue" and "Wake Up, Kick Ass, Be Kind, Repeat." For those who spend a lot of time on the road, there are smaller 4-ounce candles to take-with that come in steel-plated tins. All candles are made with 100% natural soy and come in a choice of scents including "fresh bamboo," "verbena" and "well groomed." To place an order visit http://www.the125collection.com/
