Rakkiddo Shoe Wheel
Take a look at this shoe thingie….that kind of looks like one of those hamster wheels.
This shoe rack will save space and keep your shoes organized! Rakku (which means “rack” in Japanese) introduced the Shoe Wheel to store tons of footwear in a small space. Simply slip the shoes in through the expandable elastic cords on the side and spin! The 15 expandable pockets can hold 20 pairs of shoes – it’s a dream come true for any shoe lover.
It’s available here.
SPIDER-MAN Turn Off The Dark, featuring direction by Julie Taymor (Across The Universe, Frida, The Lion King on Broadway) with music and lyrics by 22-time Grammy® Award-winners Bono and The Edge (from U2) will be holding open casting calls at major cities across the country starting next week.
