Magnetic bulletin boards by Three by Three go 'Anywheres'

December 11, 2006

Magnets

Three by Three

It's not often we get excited about, well, bulletin boards and magnets, but one Seattle company –Three by Three – has launched a line of funky fasteners that caught our eye.

Do you wish you could hang a photo on your stainless-steel fridge with a magnet? Now you can with Anywheres mini magnetic bulletin boards.

Available in 11 vibrant shapes and sizes – hearts, flowers, birds and circles, to name a few – these innovative magnetic-receptive metal pieces attach to almost any surface with their powerful adhesive-strip backing. Then, just pop on a magnet to display artwork, photos, grocery lists, etc. Our favorite placements? On bathroom walls, kitchen walls and car dashboards.

Product designer Gwen Weinberg, who is one of Three by Three's owners, says the inspiration is in the name – "anywhere." "People want to put up notes and photos on their mirror, on their dashboard, on their closet door, on their window," says Weinberg, "all the places people would love to put up photos with something more attractive than Scotch tape, but couldn't until now."

Available at several online retailers including www.fridgedoor.com, Anywheres make great stocking-stuffers for teens, college students and parents. They come in packs of four and sell for $7.50.

Three by Three's products are available at The Container Store, Velocity Art and Design, Portage Bay Goods and other stores. See Three by Three's Web site for more information.
