With so many cool things coming out each week, it can be hard to wade through all the rock-awesomeness. With ‘Cool Tools’, we’ve done the hard work for you.

This week we saw everything from what is quite possibly the best-designed drone ever to an update to MakerBot’s PrintShop app, a modular + stackable garden system, the latest Star Wars teaser and more…

This week we look at:

DESIGN

DIY

Modular + Stackable Garden Planters

“This vertical garden is made from a series of DIY stackable planters. The individual planters are easy to make and when they’re stacked together, they create a dramatic vertical garden that can dramatically transform an outdoor space.”

“Luxury” Shower

“It’s not always feasible to spend a few thousand on remodeling the bathroom, but you know that we all want to have the luxury shower of our dreams. This luxury shower has 6 customizable shower heads that will make you the envy of any and all visitors and the best part – it can be done for under $60!”

ROCK AWESOMENESS
