Instructables user, ebenupton, has posted a detailed run through of how you can build your own little disco drink coaster to wow your friends (or yourself, if you’re bored).

The coaster isn’t available for purchase and does indeed require a bit of electrical work, but just follow the instructions closely and you should be fine.

The coaster hooks up to your computer and will display any video on the coaster, giving a unique lighting experience for each person.

Check out this video of the coaster in action:

Want to be the coolest person at your next party? Try these new Glow Stick Straws. The straw is crimped at each end, to hold in a glow stick. When you drink, the glow stick moves up and down.

For $8 for 6 assorted colors, this is just too fun to pass up.

Growing up my parents had an “emergency” plan so that we kids knew what to do in case something happened such as a fire. Well this is taking it one step further, with actually simulating a fire so that you can practice how to put it out.

This Fire Extinguisher Training System is safe and easy to use. It uses laser technology to simulate the real chemicals that come out of a fire extinguisher.

Being a girl scout in my early years, this definitely lives up to our motto of “Be Prepared!”

Whether you live in an apartment without a place you can garden or if you just want fresh veggies and herbs year round, the AeroGarden Pro 100 just might be for you.

The things you plant in the AeroGarden require very little maintenance (the manufacturer says only 5 minutes per month). So this is the perfect setup for small living spaces where you might be out of town fairly often.

Having one of these dandy little gardens will set you back about $170 on Amazon.com (it lists for around $230).

Wow, this is ridiculous. If you happen to be one of thosoe people who sit in your backyard and think, “Hmmm I really wish I had a spa that has a 61″ LCD TV right now,” well you’re in luck!

Catalina Spas has recently launched this over the top addition for your outdoor spa. It is not currently on the manufacturer’s website, but rather through HGTV. It doesn’t say a price, but I can only imagine the price tag on this luxury.

We love playing fetch with our two pugs, but to be honest, sometimes we’re exhausted after a day of work and don’t want to play. Here is a great solution for those lazy days. The GoDogGo is basically a tennis ball launcher that will keep your dog occupied for hours.

It comes with 6 balls, but can hold up to 15. For the ultimate lazy person, you should teach your dog how to retrieve the ball and return it to the basket on top. That way all you have to do is sit back and enjoy the show!
