Part of the reason people don’t put fire extinguishers in kitchens is because they can't find one that works with the decor.
Apparently, Japanese housewives upset over their lack of aesthetic options for the safety devices pushed a local company to create the flower-shaped fire hydrants.
As beautiful as the fake flowers look in the living room, these delicate fire flowers are flexible enough to place almost everywhere thanks to the magnetic stones on their “stem.”
The Floral Fire Extinguishers are also easy to use. When an emergency happens, just throw them in the fire and wait for the agent in the buds to work their magic.
