February 11 is Get Out Your Guitar Day

Deadpool knows what today is.

Here at Happy Clam Gifts, we have some guitarists among us. (I can’t vouch for Deadpool’s talent though, other than his katana skills. I actually found that guitar for him, just for this special occasion.)

We do, however, have some Funko Pops that keep their guitar out all year long. So let’s celebrate them today, for all the jams that made us happy throughout our youth.

So if you’ve got a guitar stashed away somewhere, get it out and rock out today. Play a little James Taylor, Jim Croce, or Jimi Hendrix. Just play.

The Metal Lunch Box Grows Up

Remember the metal lunch boxes from elementary school? If your age hovers around Gen X or earlier, you might know that familiar clanging tin sound of lunch boxes being stashed in the classroom coat closet. Unrefrigerated sandwiches and milk thermoses inside, ready to make 4-foot tall petri dishes out of unsuspecting 3rd graders.

Well, worry no more about using retro-style lunch boxes for actual lunches. Our Loungefly, Vandor, and Aquarius lunch boxes are roomy enough to store extra desk and office supplies for grown-up neatniks who like their stuff put away. They also make handy surprise gift boxes.

As cool as these lunch boxes look on display, they don’t have to just sit on a shelf all lonely, feeling empty inside, unable to relate to any of your knick knacks. Put ’em to work!

We’ve employed our own Orange Crush lunch box for years to store pens, post-its, index cards, and tabs.

Organize Your Office Supplies in a Lunchbox

Perfect way for college students to keep their study supplies handy. But they’ll need an additional lunch box to stash emergency snacks.

Students in dorms can keep their comfort snacks nearby and ready for the apocalypse – otherwise known as midterms and finals week.

So if you do know someone going off to college in California, this one will look totally rad in the dorm:

Snackivores working all day in an office can keep their goodies stashed in our Aquarius Warning Please Do Not Feed the Zombies lunch box. Keep your cookies and chips hidden from those co-workers who wander around in the afternoon in search of a bite.

You can also use a lunch box to store stationery, stamps, and stickers. That way you can easily locate those birthday cards with just a flip of the latch. You won’t procrastinate as much when everything is in one place and ready to mail out (after the obligatory insertion of a check or gift card, of course).

Organize Your Stationery Supplies in a Lunchbox

There are other clever Pinterest-worthy uses for ye olde lunche boxe. You can impress your houseguests with an array of toiletries conveniently displayed and available on their bathroom counter. They won’t have to feel sheepish about asking you for any personal care products that they’ve no doubt forgotten to pack.

Get creative with your storage choices. Depending on the lunch box’s design, it’s fun to keep its contents within the same theme:

Musicians can keep their guitar accessories, picks, cables, and strings corralled.
