Mousey LED Illuminators

The Mickey Mouse Bulb Brings the House of Mouse to the Hardware Store

— November 16, 2011 — Art & Design
Here's hoping that everyone is able to light their homes one day using the Mickey Mouse Bulb. The Mickey Mouse Bulb is a conceptual LED light bulb designed in the shape of Mickey's head.

The Mickey Mouse Bulb was designed by Hong-kue Lee. The bulb features the iconic grin and ears of Dinsey's mouse and comes in three different colors, teal, pink and silver. The LED bulb is contained in Mickey's face and the node is integrated into his right ear. The result is a playful and bright light bulb that would be right at home in a child's room and maybe even an adult's.

There is little the House of Mouse has not put their prints on already. I wouldn't be shocked to see a whole line of home products such as the Mickey Mouse Bulb filling up an aisle of local hardware stores.
Trend Themes
1. LED Light Bulbs - The Mickey Mouse Bulb illustrates the trend of creative and playful designs for LED light bulbs.
2. Character-branded Products - The popularity of the Mickey Mouse Bulb indicates a trend of character-branded products infiltrating the hardware industry.
3. Child-focused Home Decor - The Mickey Mouse Bulb exemplifies the trend of child-focused home decor items that can also appeal to adults.
Industry Implications

2. Consumer Goods - The consumer goods industry can tap into the market for character-branded products, creating new revenue streams and partnerships with entertainment companies.
3. Home Decor - The home decor industry can cater to the demand for playful and child-focused products that bring joy and creativity to living spaces.
