”Teeny Tiles are 2” x 2” x .25” ceramic tiles printed with your images. Teeny Tiles’ unique size makes them great for small gifts and decorations. Each Teeny Tile comes with an adhesive magnet that you can apply to the back of the tile. Teeny Tiles make great refrigerator magnets. You can even incorporate Teeny Tiles into tile work around your house. Since Teeny Tiles are so small, almost any image will work - images as small as 430 x 430 pixels. This means photos from your Facebook account or taken with a mobile phone will work fine. Images must be JPEG files and under 2 megabytes.”

Lilly is a little robotic insect. “When powered by the sun she flaps her shiny wings manically. No batteries, no charging, just pop her in a bright spot and she will flutter for you. Made from a meter movement, solar cell, chip, resistor and a couple of capacitors.” At Etsy for $60.

Lea Redmond‘s creative, handmade letter service is simply fantastic. “The World’s Smallest Postal Service is a teeny tiny letter transcription service. It sets up shop in cafes and stores, and is now available online. Here’s how it works: You write a letter (up to 6 sentences - see below) and I rewrite it onto tiny stationary (1 x 1.5 inches) with my microscopic ink pen. It then goes into a tiny envelope which gets addressed, stamped, and sealed with a tiny wax seal with your initial on it. The letter then goes into a see-through folded coin case and is packaged up with a magnifying glass in a larger glassine envelope, finished off with a large “World’s Smallest Letter” wax seal. I can send your letter directly to a recipient of your choice, or to you if you would like to distribute it yourself.” Only $8 a letter. [via coolhunting]
