Here, There and Everywhere
What It Is: A quirky collection of laser cut coasters that mimic the layout of significant cities. So far the ‘I Kinda Like It Here’ coaster collection only covers Toronto, Vancouver, Ottawa and Winnipeg in Canada, but you can also get the Toronto coasters in trivet form. Nab a four-pack of your city of choice or get a multi-pack that includes all four. You can also acquire Stockholm or Los Angeles, should you or a loved one have a connection to those places. It’s a neat yet subtle ode to a place you may call home and definitely a conversation starter for your next fete.
Who It’s For: Your mom, who moved across the country and still misses the place she was born. The hostess, as a cool thank you gift she’ll treasure. The boss, who is saying bon voyage with a job transfer but will always call your city home.
What It Costs: $40 a set.
Where It’s At: The National Design Collective (NDC) store.
BONUS entry into yesterday’s Odacite giveaway – tell me in the comments below what you think of this swell gift idea.
I would like it better if Halifax was a part of it.
Great gift idea for people who have moved away. I wish they had an Ottawa trivet.
These are great, but they need more cities.
This could replace my GPS!
Might be something a few people would be interested in, not me – when I use coasters I want ones that don’t let the moisture from the glass go through the coaster. They must have a solid bottom.
Very unique. Great gift for visitors from another country or another part of Canada.
interesting but expensive
I think they are cool looking – a good conversational piece.
This would be a good keepsake of a vacation city
They are unique, would make a great gift.
They look neat. I wonder if they’ll ever come up with one from Edmonton?
These are great and I’m excited (and surprised!) that they have Winnipeg.
Really cute. Great conversation starter.
I think these are a unique gift idea!
as coasters I’m not so sure but I love the Trivet Idea. Very unique gift idea.
I really like these coasters- so unique! Would make a great gift so someone moving into or coming from another province.
These are really unique, And useful.
I think they are a super idea. Would be perfect for my son that lives now in Montreal.
I kinda like those coasters!! A lot!
Odacite bonus entry: I think this swell gift idea would be great for both people coming & going out of the specific cities. Nice looking too!
I think it’s cute and quirky. deffinitely not for everyone, but if I could find the layout of my own city I think i’d buy a set!
These are great! ❤ winnipeg
This is a very cute idea! They would be a great reminder of a vacation or home city.
I love the idea and look-practical art
I like the trivet offering – this definitely would get used in my house!
The Canadian cities collection is perfect for my dad, who has lived all across the country throughout his life. These have a very nostalgic and classic feel.
I love the look of these!
Cool idea. I’d love to get an Ottawa trivet.
I really like this idea. Great for people who might be feeling a bit homesick (I moved from the Toronto area about 4 months ago)
I think that this is a great idea for souvieners or remembering special place So!
Cool idea, but I hope they wouldn’t scratch the table!
Cheers.
These are really neat.. I know someone who is getting Winnipeg coasters for Christmas!
