Don’t Worry About It
We know what you're thinking: When life gets stressful, the last thing you need to deal with is a literal monster. Well, Anastasiia Grishina's worry monsters may look scary, but they're actually the friendly kind--and they want to help.
For your Monster's safety, it will arrive flat and require simple assembly to bring to life. Then, write down your greatest worry on a strip of paper, insert the end into the pin between the monster's eyes, and give it a twist. Once it's all coiled up, slide the pin out and the worry will fall right into the monster's mouth. It's a fun way of visualizing a worry leaving your mind, getting smaller, then disappearing for good. Once you feel at ease, tip that worry right into the trash and use the monster as a holder for the included pen and paper. Made in Texas.
Buying a Worry Monster will give back $2 to the School of Design at the University of Illinois, Chicago, where Anastasiia Grishina, the product's creator, was a student when she dreamed up the idea.
