If you're rolling solo, it's likely that you won't need a gadget charging station that holds more than a few mobile gadgets that you use daily (i.e., your phone, iPod or MP3 player, and point-and-shoot camera), so why spend your hard earned money on something you don't need?
Instead, check out the eco friendly and geek chic Bamboo Charging Station that has been marked down from $46 to $30. Cool thing is, the station can live on your desk, or hang on your wall to maximize space and create a modern decorative feature on your wall, even when your gadgets aren't being juiced.

Charging stations are becoming more and more ubiquitous — their advantage being the organization they provide. So why not apply the idea to a time when you really need to be organized — when you're on the road traveling?

Very interesting — used to be, we only saw charging stations made of wood or plastic, but now it seems you can get the useful organizing hubs in natural materials as well — not everyone was into the Seagrass Charging Station, but it's a novel use of material.
Pottery Barn is in on the action too, with its new Woven Rattan Charging Station ($49).
The natural willow reed encloses the charging strip, while your gadgets sit in the front of the basket.

Is the Tree of Charge a novelty charging station, or a brilliant piece of practical art?
Not unlike the Grass Charging Station, Radius's tree (about $98) uses an organic motif for a modern need — a place to store and organize charging gadgets.
The tree's branches also accommodate plenty of other little accessories you dispense with when you come home, like keys and jewelry, so its footprint ends up being less about gadgets and more about organization in general.

I had no idea Laura Ashley was making charging stations. Just kidding. But this Floral Charging Station ($165) at Neiman Marcus reminds me of the '90s designer who loved — I mean, really loved — her florals.

Shot of wheatgrass, anyone? Though I highly doubt that the "grass" in this Charging Station ($27) is actually real, the description doesn't say otherwise, leaving my imagination to run wild. Wild as that crazy grass.

The only thing that bothers me about charging stations is that they take up valuable real estate in your home and only provide one service: charging.
But this new design, called Central Station by Christian Lessing, combines a shoe rack and a charging station. This would be perfect for an entryway; imagine walking in and winding down by unloading your cell phone and freeing your feet.

When the legendary though short-lived Blueprint magazine folded, I mourned the loss of another favorite. Not only was Blueprint, a Martha Stewart title, the one magazine I felt that was really made for me, by people like me, but it recognized the three-dimensional female life.
Specifically, Blueprint knew that modern girls are gadget girls — in its inaugural issue, it won me over with this: DIY instructions for a charging station.
