A shopping blog of cool gift ideas

I have to admit, I do not have much of a green thumb, but when a plant is as cute and easy to grow as a Nyokki, my thumb makes an exception. Nyokkis are hand-made in Japan from glazed ceramic, shaped like an egg with adorable little fabric legs. They're filled with soil and dry grass seed and if they ever have a meltdown and shave their "hair" off, a la Britney Spears, no need to worry: they grow to their full height in less than two weeks! 

Choose a black cat, ghost or pumpkin Nyokki as a special Halloween treat for a friend. Just be sure to keep them away from the paparazzi!
