Litill Terrariums

We are all told that having some form of plant life in your home office is a good idea for a number of reasons. These wonderfully designed terrariums by Litill come in a hand-blown glass bowel that is a perfect complement to your office environment.

How do I water the plants and how often?
we will supply you with a pipette to water the plants. you will also receive a diagram telling you how often to care for all of the elements inside.

How much sunlight do they require?
as much as possible without receiving direct sunlight. a desk lamp with a grow light can be used as well as regular fluorescent lighting. in the case of an office environment one must be careful to make sure the plants are also receiving the appropriate amount of darkness.

What if one of the plants dies? how can I replace it?
we can either supply it for you or you are welcome to find something at your local garden center and we will give you instructions on how to install it without disrupting the other living things that are already established in the terrarium.

I don’t live in an arid climate, will the terrariums thrive in damp environment?
yes but you must be careful not to over-water.

Pocket Clip Pencil

Possibly the worlds cleverest pencil, handmade in east London. Each white pencil has a clip carved into it, so that it can be attached to pockets, satchels and book covers just like a biro. It comes packaged on a card and we think it’s a classic in the making! Why hadn’t someone already thought of this idea! Genius if you’re always losing your pencils.

“My kids love to pretend they are “working at home” like mommy. Lots of fun and very durable.”
Kimberly Baldwin.

“In this world of high technology where children are literally drowning in electronics, toys like these bring children back to basics. Our society is so busy with “other” activities. Parents are often forgetting the role of family values, manners, modeling and role playing. Toys like these are learning tools for life, encouraging social interaction and even problem solving. Children who are obsessed with the latest stimulation electronics can lack th social skills needed for everyday living. Purchase a dollhouse for your child, whether they are a male or female, today!!!! Still less than an iPod, Wii, PS3, Game Cube….these stim toys don’t teach you how to develop emotionally as a human being. Go traditional toys and Real Life!”
