From the masterminds
at Dynomighty Design who brought you the Mighty
Wallet come Desk DOTS! These surprisingly strong
ceramic magnets make for delightful multipurpose desk
accessories. You can use them to hold paper clips,
collect stray staples, arrange papers (or even notepads
– they can support up to half an inch of paper),
as “pushpins” on magnetic surfaces, etc.
Fiddling and building with them provides great stress
relief as well. Check out this brief, amusing video
demonstrating some of the many uses for Desk DOTS:
Six magnets come in each
package. While I enjoy my half dozen magnets thoroughly,
I suspect 2-3 packages would be optimal for both play
and organization. At $15 a pop, though, that could
get a little pricey, depending on your budget. (It
could be worse, however – the price has been
reduced from $20. Nice!)
Thank you, Dynomighty, for once again merging form
and function in a whimsical product! 4/5 U’s.
