The bottom of Saidoka features micro-suction rails to grip smooth surfaces without the use of a sticky adhesive allowing you to dock and undock your phone with ease. High-tech Japanese micro-suction uses tiny suction cups to hold Saidoka firmly in place and allows you to reposition again and again without leaving residue behind.

Fresh Christmas Decorating Ideas



Add Color to Your Front Door
Accent a bright white door with the deep colors of an evergreen wreath and garland. Tie on extra-wide red ribbons to complete the Christmas look and add graphic punch. Twinkling lights add a soft glow at night and allow the door and decor to be seen from the street.

Hang Vintage Ornaments
No need to reinvent your decorations each Christmas; stick with the familiar. It’s ok to use the same ornaments every year! Decorate with vintage glass ornaments and ornaments given to you by friends and family.

Make Your Own Napkin Rings
Make your own custom napkin rings by spray-painting cedar roses (the opened cones of the deodar cedar tree) silver and gluing them atop 2-inch-wide red ribbon. Tuck in a sprig of boxwood for an extra flourish.

Decorate Pendant Lights
Dress up pendant lights in a kitchen or over an island with garland. This kitchen allows plenty of room for entertaining. The open floor plan keeps the cook from being cut off from the festivities on Christmas morning.

Decorate with Colors That Match Your Décor
Plan Christmas decorations to work with your existing decor, even if that means using unexpected colors like cream and beige. Accents in shades of gold and silver blend seamlessly with this room’s soft white-and-ivory color scheme and play off the tones of other metallic accessories, like the coffee table.


Fill Cylinders with Ornaments
Use spray paint to add a shimmery touch to pinecones, acorns, or round glass ornaments. Displayed en masse in tall glass vases, they become instant and easy Christmas accents.





Try a New Color Scheme
Break away from the classic red-and-green Christmas palette. No nutcrackers, reindeers, or Santas necessary. Instead, add red-and-white accents, such as polished pomegranates and star of Bethlehem blooms, for a subtler look.
