82 Clever and Creative Fred & Friends Products
I'm sure you've come across Fred & Friend products before at your local indie store and might not have even known it. Last weekend I was cruising around town and stopped at an indie store only to find one whole corner of the place dedicated to Fred & Friend products. It was heavenly. I stood there for probably more than a half hour laughing and checking out all their cool stuff.
A lot of creativity goes into the making of these products, and I think part of that cleverness is shown in the name of the product and the slogan. It's really a hoot flipping through their catalog and I often find myself posing the question: "How in heavens name did they think of that?". Check out this collection I compiled for you guys today and you'll probably find yourself asking the same question.
Which one's your favorite? Tell us in the comments below! And you can also drop me a line on twitter or facebook! I'd love to hear from you! Enjoy :)

cool ideas
stunning products love 'm!
hahah great post, some awesome creativity there! Not a massive fan of the 'lazy load images' though.
Great unique fresh collection of products. I've bought some items from Fred. Why use something borrowing when it can be practical+fun instead. Their products always make me smile.
Incredible :D
Very creative!!!
Clever indeed!

Very nice gadgets, I wish I get most of them!
I love them.
For french fans, you can find some of these product in an online shop -> www.nodshop.com
the EARLY BIRD is very kitsch!!!
A lot of great ideas!
Some cool ideas, the only ones I have problems with are the ice cube trays.
First off, I know (from having a Playboy subscription for about 5 years now, and reading the Advisor every issue) that those 'ice cubes' you use in pictures to demonstrate how the trays work, those aren't real ice cubes. Everyone knows that as ice cubes form air pockets get trapped inside and that's why the centers of ice cubes are white; if you want truly clear ice cubes you have to freeze the ice in layers, which takes substantially longer.
But my point is, those shaped forms that are created in the ice trays, the reason why ice cubes tend to be cubic is because of the stress force created when you twist the tray to pop the cubes out. As with your ice trays here, any superficial ice is inevitably going to be broken off as you twist the tray to loosen the cubes.
Love you mad, mad, mad people....
super collection but i saw one of them no where.. where to buy ?
awwww i love all of them !! <3
Clever and funny products. I want one of those silly ice trays!

I love the pastasaurus and all the ice cube trays! Too cute!

Where i can buy all this great things ? )
this is a great collection!!! Now i want to have like half of these at home!!! :D :D
Very Awesome ^^
These + some (only some) of the oriental trading co's items should be standard. I'm pretty sure I'm going to find a way to get some of those ZINGS for my next family get together. What a way to get the party going!
Forget Amazon - this is my Christmas Wish List!
Phil E. Drifter: Those are all silicon ice cube trays. No twisting, just peel the tray off of the ice.
These are so totally cute!!
great. awesome creative.....some are really funny.
very clever & awesome!
Awesome, I would buy most of these!
Most of these are stupid and pointless but I found a few good ones.

GREAT ideas...great job - very talented!
MUWKOS I bookmarked this link. Thank you for good job!
awesome!! that's just amazing !!
Best weird thingie i've ever seen came and went decades ago. It was a simple black plastic cube with a toggle switch and a trapdoor on top. One would look at it and of course flick the switch.
The trap door would slowly open and a little hand would come out, grab the toggle switch, and pull it back to its original off position. Then the hand would retreat and the trap door closed. Brilliant!! All human technology summarized in a simple wordless demonstration!
Fool that i am, i didn't buy it. If anybody has seen it recently, please post a link on this page!
