With so many different style influences, the Creator Table is really one-of-a-kind. These tables are the work of Magnus Sanglid, a furniture product designer with an entire website full of stuff worth checking out.
According to Sanglid this design is “a unique combination of mid-European cultural inheritance where ornaments have been the ruling style for furniture’s throughout the 19th century and tight Scandinavian design traditions from the 20th century.” Captivating and functional, these tables offer strong design definitely worth taking a closer look at here.

I’m not a huge fan of video games, but I am a huge fan of Christmas. These caught my eye not only because they are an unusual addition to the tree, but because plenty of my friends are into gaming and would probably love these. Sold as a set of 7 (including the traditional NES controller and more current additions like the Wii and Playstation) and in your choice of several colors, this set of ornaments comes in at a pretty reasonable $25. Check it out here.
