$25 and under gift No. 16: bottle cap tripod

At the risk of overdoing the whole bottles, mugs, glasses theme to this year’s gift guide, here’s another liquid-vessel item that has us pretty psyched: the Bottle Cap Tripod ($10), from BK-based Dynomighty Design. This tiny tripod, which doubles as a high-tech stopper for your potables, screws right onto any soda- or water-bottle top on one end and into your point & shoot on the other. What you get is an ultra portable, swiveling-yet-stable mount to save your shots on windy days in Red Hook or just from chronically over-caffeinated hands. The tripod’s still available online, or you can try one of the many BK stores that carries Dynomighty’s products.

$25-and-under Brooklyn gift idea #10: Mighty Air Mail Wallet

We’re almost hesitant to tell you where to get one of these wallets. Because since we got one at the Brooklyn Flea a few months back, it’s proved to be tops for eye-grabbing gawking from jealous admirers and has led to lots of “ooh”s of wonderment from many a cashier. Made by DUMBO-based Dynomighty Design, the Air Mail Mighty Wallet ($15) is both durable (built out of the same microfiber material as air mail envelopes), and flexible, so it’ll swell to accommodate as many credit cards, receipts or bills (oh to have that problem) as you need to carry. Slim enough so it won’t bulge out of your stylish silhouette on a night out, but also consider it for the vegans on your shopping list: Do you know how hard it is to find a decent non-leather wallet? Check out the company’s other designs too, including an MTA map, loose-leaf notebook paper and a dot matrix printout. Buy the Mighty Wallet online or check the site to find a store that sells it.
