Harry Organizer by Formila

11-21-organize3.jpg

Get a grip on organization. The Harry and Harry Jr. organizers by Formila are organically-formed, wall-mounted organizers with PVC-covered appendages you can shape to hold your stuff. They're fun looking and we can imagine using one as a key holder. But in the kitchen or bath, the tangled organizer might be more of a frustration than a helpful organizer.

I find it kinda scarry looking.

i like it.

Although I have endless love for both the Flying Spaghetti Monster and Cthulu, this looks like a dust and grease magnet. Yuck.

I find it kid of gross. I think it looks like worms.

Is that called an organizer? reeeaally......?

Glad to see I'm not the only one who saw the resemblance with the FSM

By the time you wrap the tendrils around your item, it would take less time to just put the item where it should actually go.

It looks like someone put gadgets in Medusa's hair.

um........weird, but cool. don't know if it's really more functional than just putting your stuff away.

Looks like mung bean sprouts.
First I thought "gross." Then I thought "handy." Finally, I agree with Trilobyte, "dust and grease magnet."

But, I'm still kind of intrigued by it. Definite conversation piece.

Eeeeuuuuu! It gives me the heevie-jeevies. But, come to think of it, my 7-year-old might find it cool...

Yeah, this would be terrible in the kitchen, but I think it would be very cool to have near the door (and away from grease)for keys and sunglasses.

I think this would be a good oddity to keep in one's workspace at the job. People would probably leave all kinds of "treats" in it.

I'll bet cats would like this too.

I agree with Pixie, it would be really fun in an office space. When I worked in the corporate world around all the characters in the cube farm, we were always playing jokes on eachother and leaving surprises around. This would have been fun to mount on the wall for sure!

But in a kitchen. Naw. Not my taste - but only because it reminds me of some Anime monster or something and I only like those things contained in a movie, thank you very much.

Trilobyte, my first thought was Flying Spaghetti Monster, too.

posted by Doug on 2006-11-21 18:18:34

O, Flying Spaghetti Monster: nearer my organized thingee to thee.

posted by Richard on 2006-11-22 05:07:39

I agree with Jon B. I saw this on HGTV's I WANT THAT...well I don't want it. As a novelty it's cute but it makes no sense to me as an organizer...

posted by jess on 2006-11-22 09:37:19

Definitely an office toy -- I envision 4" action figures struggling in the tentacles.

Organizer? I would rather see my tabasco sauce sitting in the middle of the counter than hanging diagonally while tangled up in some tentacles. But I always give props for unique-ness.

I had the same thought as Alana in Canada, Medusa's hair. It's disgusting.

Flying Spaghetti Monster. yup. that was what I saw as well. I think I may have found the perfect place to store those two plastic googly eyes I've had laying around all this time...

I can see kids having a great time with this - but it shouldn't cost more than ten bucks. And I have no doubt it costs much more!

Haha, I must admit that I like it! And I would also like one as a keyholder. :-)

I'm tempted to get one for my husband. He's bald.

It's kind of like the sun, or a car crash...I can't look directly at it, but I can't stop peeking, either.
