Elvis Cutting Board: Love It or Hate It?

This King of cutting boards ($20) had me cracking up at first sight. I'm not an avid Elvis fan, but the whole concept - his eggplant hair, his bell pepper ear, his carrot-and-corn collar - makes me laugh. I love the vibrant colors, too. Still, I could see how some might find this accessory too garish and gaudy for their kitchen.

Yum Market Finds: Sleek and Chic

I'm a minimalist, I hate clutter, and I always prefer sleek over shabby. While I apply this philosophy to my entire house, it's especially important in the kitchen. I can't cook if the dishwasher is full of clean dishes or if the counter tops are filled with junk.

Looks like you might feel the same way, because the Yum Market on TeamSugar is full of sleek and chic kitchen gadgets and tools. Stainless steel accents add a smooth and pristine look, especially to granite counter tops and wooden cabinets.

This Chiasso Fruit Stack artistically replaces the classic fruit bowl and will instantly modernize a tired kitchen. What a fabulous find aimeeb! For more sleek ideas, scroll through the products below using the arrows on the right.

Stylish Oven Mitts

Everyone loves a great apron, but have you ever thought about your oven mitt? An oven mitt is a fantastic way to spruce up your kitchen with a little bit of whimsy and a lot of flair.

I came across these three beautiful oven mitts at the Curiosity Shoppe. They're $25 a piece, and were created by the folks at Deadly Squire (although how anything so cute could come from something called "deadly" is beyond me). They've also got matching pot holders for $20.

If branches and birds aren't your style, check out these hot dot oven mitts and pot holders at Chiasso. They range from $12-$18.

Two more after the jump, so read more.

This one, by goods of desire, offers a little bit of a worldly touch. For $24, the black and white chinese newsprint oven mitt could become a great conversation starter in your kitchen.

And finally, I found this eye-catching modern circle oven mitt from Echo. You can take it home for a mere $6. At that price, go ahead and get two.
