I’m a big fan of Shibari and have gone to a number of public displays and love flipping through books of beautiful bound girls.

Anyways, I am really intrigued by rope play, so I’ve made it a goal to get more involved. I want to learn to tie knots, attend more events and really explore the culture.

I’ve already got my first book, Two Knotty Boys Showing You the Ropes, and have a couple more coming for Christmas.

I’ve also been researching rope so I can begin to test out different knots – hopefully my girlfriend won’t mind if I try a little decorative bondage on her!

Of course, I’ve got tons of other things I’m looking forward to in 2011, but this is one that I’m really excited to delve into. If you have any suggestions or want to share your New Years resolutions, feel free to comment below!

Sexy penalties are the best

It’s football season, which means we need to pay attention to the rules! Has your slave been holding?  Well, there are no 10 yard penalties in dungeons, but you can definitely put an end to the personal fouls with Strict Leather Premium Locking Arm Splints:

“Keep your slaves arms straight and secure with these premium leather locking arm splints. Each arm splint has D-Rings attached that can be used for tying down them down to the body, other objects or even each other.

Splints feature 10 welded dees, 5 lockable and 1 inch roller buckles on each arm. Arm splints can be used with or without locks.

Note: Locks not included. Measurements: Splints are 16 inches in length.”

Remember to keep it dirty, but play by the rules!

First up, let me tell you all about my new Kink Cuffs! They’re made from black nylon and pink leather and totally hot. I love the way they look, the way they feel and the look in my partner’s eye when I’m on my back with my hands secured to the bed.  Let me tell you, there’s no way I’m going anywhere in these restraints.

While I can’t speak about these items from personal experience, I feel like you need to know that you can pick up a matching collar, blindfold and more!

You should also check out their Wartenberg Wheel. It’s really well made and perfect for driving a lover insane!

Lightly roll over the skin for a unique sensation! The Wartenberg Pinwheel is great for sensory play and medical fantasies. This pinwheel comes with a leather sheath to hold your pinwheel when not in use. Be daring!

While I may only own a couple of items right now, I definitely see myself investing more in the future and had to share my experiences with you so far. I definitely need to get my hands on Vampire Gloves after hearing rave reviews on the interwebs about them – just another item to add to my wish list!

Whether you’re a serious player, or just looking to get a little freaky in the bedroom, you should really check out what Kinklab has to offer!

First up, let’s start with something for all of those innocent newbies out there. The Beginner Ball Gag from Tantus is the perfect choice if you’re looking for a place to start. While it was designed with beginners in mind, it’s made to last and is something you can enjoy for years to come.

Because silicone is tasteless and odorless, it is ideal for insertion in the mouth. The Beginner Ball Gag is the perfect choice because the outer mouth piece is contoured to fit comfortably (it’s original shape is based on an infant pacifier). The straps are leather that can snap off so you can wash the silicone: it’s boilable, bleachable in a 10% solution and dishwasher safe. Velcro closures on the straps allow for maximum adjustment for head size and ease of fitting.

Of course, if you’re looking for simple, this Ball Gag may be just the item you need to command the respect you deserve.  There are no bells or whistles, just a simple gag to keep your noisy sub in line.

This 1 inch Ball Gag is just big enough to keep most subs quiet. The sturdy Ball is only 1 inch for smaller mouths. The gag is held securely in place with a black strap.

These ball gags fit from 13 1/2″ to 21″ sized heads. The straps are designed to go under the base of the skull on the back and around to the mouth.

Finally, I have to highlight this hot Dog Bone Bit Gag – it’s perfect for training your new puppy slave.

This 4 1/2in Dog Bone shaped Gag has a leather head strap with buckle to hold it firmly in place. Made of hard rubber, this gag is sturdy enough for even the most difficult pets.

These gags are made with safety in mind. Just unsnap and the bone can be removed, you can change the balls without replacing the straps.

Our small gag fits from 13 1/2″ to 21″ the straps are designed to go under the base of the skull on the back and around to the mouth.

While I’ll avoid making any jokes about giving a dog a bone, I bet there are plenty of people out there just dying to add this one to the mix!

Of course, I will remind you to never leave your partner unattended while wearing a ball gag. Air flow restriction can lead to asphyxiation and that’s no fun for anyone.

Time to get in touch with your naughty side

Tick. Tick. Tick.  Your time is running out to get awesome fetish sex toys, costumes and adult party fare for your Halloween celebration!  As we previously mentioned, you want a memorable and fun Halloween party.  You don’t want to become a victim of Lame Party Syndrome.  And even if your Halloween celebration will be limited to you and your partner, having the perfect sex toys are a great way to add spice to the celebration.

Up until now, we’ve shown you the lighter side of Halloween fun.  But some of you – the really lucky ones – like to have a little more wicked fun.  That’s where we can help you with our great selection of Fetish Sex Toys.  So get in touch with your naughty side for some wild fetish fun.

Now, we should mention that you’ll need to bring your imagination along for this trip.  The naughtier you feel, the more fun you’ll have.  Whether it is getting the perfect wicked look for a night out, being a little too “tied up” to make the party, giving your partner a Halloween spanking, or, if you really engage your imagination, taking the whole costume idea to a whole new level with some true BDSM role play.  The REALLY imaginative might even want to open their own Halloween dungeon.

That’s right, the only limits you have are the limits of your imagination!

Let’s start with that wicked look for a night out.  If you’ve picked your costume, you’ll want to accessorize to get your own unique look.  Check out these Eyelash Spike Goggles for that wicked look you want.

Eyelash Spike Goggles

From Axovus:

“Axovus Eyelash Spike Goggles are uber cool goggles! One size fits all, fully adjustable head strap and bridge chain, these uber cool goggles feature six 1 1/4″ claw spikes.

These goggles also feature removable 50mm lenses, comes standard with smoke colored lens, red, blue and 3D lenses available.”

And if you like the spiked look, you can move it down to your wrists with the intense Bolts and Spikes Gauntlet, which is probably the most hard core product for accessories we have in stock.  Toss in a Spiked Collar and you’ll have the Axovus trinity of awesomeness for the complete, sexually charged and dominating fetish look.

But you don’t have to go out to have a good time on Halloween.  It’s true.  Some of you like to be a little too “tied up” to make the party.  We like you.  We want to help you have every possible excuse, from the tightest to most erotic, to skip out on the song and dance and go straight for the squirm!

And for those of you who like this idea, we start with a good old fashioned Halloween Hog Tie!

Perverted Halloween wishes to you and yours

“The First and only HOG TIE that allows full access to all of your partners most intimate areas. Just Lock the wrist and ankles to the thighs and enjoy the journey…”

We like people who enjoy the hard core.  Shoot, WE like the hard core.  Find the hard core restraints to keep you tied up in our Restraints category.

Get things really hot with these

We apologize.  Was that not hard core enough for you?  If so, you’re our kind of fetish fanatic.  So you want something a little more intense?

How about a gag?  Should we throw in some nipple clamps?  What if we combined the gag and nipple clamps?  Are you warming up to the idea?

The Fetish Fantasy O-ring with Nipple Clamps is just what you need!

“Open WIDE!

Get your lover to open wide and say AHHH with this naughty O-Ring Gag with Nipple Clamps. The gag consists of a small metal O-ring wrapped in leather, connected to two sturdy leather straps.

Two chained nipple clamps keep your nipples perky, and the coated clamps easily adjust to fit your desired tension. The leather straps adjust to fit most sizes, pulling the ring tight and keeping the mouth open wide. You’re in control over when and how often your lover speaks…what you do next is up to you!

Free mask included.”

Some of you want to mix your costume fun with some serious, real life role play.  Time for a master and slave, yeah?  Maybe your man needs a strong dominatrix.  Maybe your WOMAN needs a strong dominatrix.  Maybe you want to take your captive to the dungeon!

We have a variety of choices that let you play the way you want.  With Cock and Ball Toys and Chastity Devices, you can get him under control.  Take her to the dungeon for a spanking, or for some intense breast play.  You can collar your slave and make him wear a hood or blindfold.

You can even play doctor for Halloween

We think you’re getting the idea.  With our selection of Fetish Sex Toys, you can get in touch with the wicked within and turn your Halloween celebration into the naughtiest fun you can imagine.  Whether you want an explosive orgasm, or you want to deny your slave his, we have everything you need.

Make sure to get your fetish gear soon, or you won’t have it for the holiday!  Happy Halloween, and be careful with his package when you play hard, you might want it around later!
