I don't know about you, but as I get older I seem to break things a little more often than in the past. And let me tell you when the grand children visit, the house can sustain a few casualties. I think that I might not be the only one with this problem and it is probably helpful to talk about unbreakable decor and accessories. Here is a list of unbreakable home items that you can count on to last and last no matter how many left hands you have, or mischievous children.
The first unbreakable but very attractive object is a vase. Made of flexible rubber, but looks like ceramic and comes in more colors than shown here, it is absolutely indestructible and you can drop it as many times as you want. Not only can you not break it, but its malleability allows you to make it smaller and change its form, by folding the neck into the vase if you want. And if no one brings you flowers and you feel a little angry...
just punch it!
Where to buy it: Amazon.com
This might not be the kind of elegant unbreakable vase you were thinking about but here is another totally unbreakable vase known as the dip vase and designed by Robert Bronwasser, it is definitely modern in look and function, it is made of pliable vinyl and the kids will not break it.
I am a big fan of Dan BLACK and Martin BLUM and have featured several of their designs in past post like the Reading Light.
They also make some very pleasing unbreakable items. James the bookend will stand on your shelves and hold books, but should the whole shelf come tumbling down, have no fear james the bookend will get back to work as it is unbreakable. The plate in the foot is made of stainless steel insuring that it can hold any number of books without slipping. It come in several colors to fit any decor. Available at Amazon.com
A mirror is unbreakable when it is made of acrylic or stainless steel. Whichever you choose you are sure to get many years of service no matter how many times the kids toss their toys in the air. You could also opt for a gazing ball
