Air CorkAir Cork

Air Cork is the perfect holiday gift for those who enjoy wine.  Either on its own, or as the ideal complement to a bottle of wine, any wine enthusiast would be happy to receive this handy and simple to use wine preserver.  Air Cork protects wine from oxidation, providing an airtight seal no matter how much wine is left in the bottle.

Simply lower the balloon end into the bottle until just at the top surface of the wine.  As you then easily pump, the balloon floats and seals itself to the side of the bottle.  To remove, squeeze the valve until the balloon completely deflates.  You can keep it stored in its convenient accompanying pouch and take it out for use again and again.  MSRP: $24.95; available online at aircork.com.

Chillow

Regular pillows trap heat, but Chillow absorbs the heat that radiates from the body and releases it into the air, ensuring that it remains cooler than one’s body temperature. Chillow is activated simply by adding water to its inner chamber, after which a cup of water may need to be added monthly depending on climate. Chillow can be customized to four different cooling comfort levels to satisfy personal needs. Once its temperature is set, it stays at that level and provides cooling relief for hours. Chillow’s soft medical grade material is hypoallergenic and its vacuum-sealed edges ensure that it will not leak. Learn more at www.chillow.com.

Sending a sweet treat to friends, loved ones, and colleagues is one of the best no-fail holiday gifts to give. But, the options for quality food-gifts are really lacking. Who knows how long that fruitcake has been sitting in the shipper’s warehouse or when that basket of cookies was baked!?

This year, it’s all about the artisan crafted food-gift where each and every order is individually handmade with love, care, and the best ingredients on the market. That’s the concept behind Miss NiNi’s Fine Desserts. Miss NiNi takes “homemade” and “gourmet” to the next level.

Clean Cubes 

Keep from running around, picking up plates and empty cups, and making repeated trips to the garbage bin at your next party. There is a new solution (not to mention stylish) to keep trash and recyclables in check and under control. Clean Cubes are a new, completely biodegradable, disposable trash can and recycling bin.  It unfolds just like a paper bag and comes complete with a plastic trash liner already built in to prevent leaks.

Clean Cubes and all of its components are biodegradable- so set one up for cans and another for trash and when it gets full just pick up the entire Clean Cubes and dispose. You won’t have to worry about sticky and smelly plastic trash cans once the party is over. Clean Cubes come in different darling designs so they’re much more eye-friendly than plastic cans set up around the house. Clean Cubes is the proud recipient of the 2012 International Housewares Association Innovation Award. www.clean-cubes.com
