Block of Cheese Makes the Perfect Holiday iPhone Dock [PIC]
I’m going to refrain from any horrible “cheesy” jokes right off the bat — but there currently exists a holiday Hors d’œuvre centerpiece that boasts an iPhone shoved into a block of cheese.
There, the device presides over the festivities, streaming Christmas images downloaded via the app Santa’s Little Helpers [iTunes Link].
We’ve seen a lot of iPhone-themed holiday gear as of late, but Ally Fontaine’s “Santa Baby Cheese Dock” takes the fruit cake. Husband Joel Fontaine and his friends are reportedly “total iPhone freaks,” so one can only imagine the fervor with which the centerpiece was met at the couple’s holiday party.
Ray Basile over at The iPhone Savior (who broke the snack story on his site) offered Mashable these tips, should any of you wish to create your own centerpiece: “A small gully was cut for the chord around back [of the pepper jack] and then a hole on top for the dock connector. That part needs to be very tight in order for the iPhone to stand up.” Also, NB everyone: “Cheese should be nice and cold to work with.”
What do you think of using technology to pimp out the holidays? How would you utilize your iPhone to stir up holiday cheer? Make like a mechanical Martha in the comments.
