Pop Art Toaster (Stupid.com, $34.99)
You've heard the stories about the toast with the Jesus face, right? Well, this working toaster does something similar. The Pop Art Toaster has six templates. As the bread toasts, a picture is burned into the toast. Users can choose from a snowflake, hearts, a flower, a smiley face, a birthday cake and "luv u." And, the Pop Art Toaster of course toasts bread without a picture as well. The toaster has all the normal toaster features, such as a crumb tray, various levels and a defrost option. The toaster is white and looks just like a normal toaster.

Chinese Take-Out Style Purse (BabyGirlBoutique.com, $34.50)
These Chinese take-out box purses are adorable accessories and a growing trend on the handbag scene. This take-out box style resembles a Chinese to-go box, complete with a wire handle and four flaps to open the bag. This style of handbag is available at many retailers in a variety of colors and prices, so shop around! But the style featured at BabyGirlBoutique.com is higher-end, made by Yans NY and is covered with velvet and lined with satin. The take-out box purse has a vanity mirror on one of the inside flaps and plenty of room to store the necessities for a night out.

Retro Tampon Cases (UncommonGoods.com, $28.00)
The days of revealing your personal details are over. The woman on your gift list deserves a discreet way to carry her feminine products.

    My kids would love the pop art toaster. I can't imagine anyone being pleased to receive a retro tampon case or PMS candy as a holiday present.
