Fun. Funky. Fabulous.
Those are the three words that come to mind when I browse through Uncommon Goods’ online shop. UncommonGoods.com is a one-of-a-kind, absolutely butt-kicking awesome place to shop for anyone! Even the family members who are hard to shop for… Struggling to find teen girl gifts and gifts for teenage boys perhaps?
Well look no further. Find the hard-to-shop-for gifts, and find something for yourself as well! They’ve got so many goodies on their site - a wide collection of some of the most unique – and totally rad products around. All in one place. I mean where else can you find Cardboard Antlers?
Holy-mackerel! I am OBSESSED with UncommonGoods.com. How can I even do justice to this review? Ok, you want me to stop raving and start showing? Here ya go…

Okay, I could go on forever. Literally, I am not kidding, there is something for everyone – so much variety. Especially because they keep adding more cool stuff all the time! As for me, I am a kitchen foodie, dog loving, traveling chick… okay, maybe a few thing more that that, but those are the basics. With that in mind, these are just a few of the products I fell in love with…
This way cool way of tracking your travels… A Scratch Off Map
A very handy two-in-one kitchen tool… Sink Drainer Cutting Board
Hilarious dog toys-fun for the dog/funny for me….Mustache & Giant Tongue
Combining my love of travel and food into one… Salts of the World Test Tubes
Neat stuff right? Lucky for me, I got to review two of these uber-awesome products that relate to my love for dogs and food! (Not dogs and food at the same time, though! That could have been awkward.)
The first product is the Sink Drainer Cutting Board – a very cool smart board! It combines a cutting board and a strainer, into one unit! The cutting board is thick and durable bamboo, you can tell it is well built. Thanks to the high-quality, I plan on using it for a long time. The wood is a nice chopping surface for vegetables, bread and more. **One thing to note: wood isn’t the best for meat, so we use a plastic (non porous) cutting board for raw meat. Don’t want to cross contaminate!As for the strainer – it is a bright lime green, collapsible strainer. It can pop open or stay closed – for easy storage. The strainer is removable so you can wash the board and the strainer separate if needed. I love that the strainer comes out – this is great for when I have a bunch of ends and pieces that need to go in the compost bucket, or when I want to dump the strained contents into a meal!
The Sink Drainer Cutting Board fits right over my sink (24" L x 12" W x .75" H ) and makes it easy to clean and prep food – all on one surface! We make a lot of salads so this comes in very handy to have it right over the sink! This product is inventive, useful and is saving me time running back and forth to the sink!
Next, two items for my dog’s benefit (ok, and a little of my own selfish benefit too!) The Humunga Tongue Dog Toy and the Humunga Mustache Dog Toy.
- These dog toys are absolutely hilarious. They are non-toxic, solid natural rubber dog toys in the shapes of a mustache and a large tongue. On the back of the toy there is a ball, so if your dog likes balls, he/she will probably hold on to it in this way. And when they lift their head up, well, that is a funny site to see! It looks like your dog is sticking her/his big red tongue out or they have a mustache! ** One thing to note: They are designed for medium-large dogs. They are a little too heavy for smaller dogs.
- Gotta tell ya, these silly dog toys, are VERY silly!
- My dog seems to enjoy the mustache more than the tongue. I can stuff treats in the hole of the ball portion, and she will carry it around with her everywhere! She loves digging the treats out, and I love watching her walk around with her rubber mustache!
- I wish I could show you, just how funny it is, but unfortunately, every time I pick up the camera, she drops the toy to the ground. It’s like she knows the picture would be used against her and posted online. Dog-of-shame? She is very weary of ruining her reputation (aka, see bottom evil-eye photo!)
- These are just some of the great items you can get online at UncommonGoods.com. I highly recommend you check them out, you will find all sorts of fun!
