Life Is Beautiful: An Art Installation Created By Stabbing Knives
Materials that we can use to create art are all around us all the time. Unless you are living in an airtight bubble, there aren't very many exceptions to this rule. That is one thing I've learned from writing here at Bit Rebels for almost three years. The scope of what art is, and what it can be mad ...
Award-Winning Drunk Baby Ads Sell Whiskey Infused Chocolates
Wow, I never knew until I saw these pictures how much being drunk looks the same as being tired. Although these pictures are controversial, they make me smile because these kiddies are so precious. I don't know if they would actually make me want to buy these French chocolates though.
These littl ...
Star Wars Inspired Animal Wars Illustration
I love the original Star Wars poster that inspired this illustration. In fact, I have it up on the wall right behind me, so normally I wouldn't really like the idea of anyone changing it. Then I saw this amazing tribute, created by the Spanish design team Nomade, and instantly I changed my mind.

iPoo Toilet: For A Unique Apple Bathroom Experience
Are you one of those people who has every product ever made by Apple? Do you hang onto all your old Mac laptops long after you aren't using them anymore because you are emotionally attached to them? Do you have an Apple logo on your Twitter avatar, on a bumper sticker or even on a tattoo? Did you cr ...
Hot Chocolate On A Stick: Decadent Deliciousness
Almost every food comes on a stick these days. I remember the first time I saw these Pop Tarts on a stick, and I drooled for days. After that, I even wrote a post about 20 Unusual Foods On A Stick. I never realized before today though that drinks could be served on a stick too, well, sort of. This i ...
Coilhouse Delivers World’s Most Intricate Cosplay Dresses Ever
We have seen a ton of cosplay costumes, and the ones we have featured here on Bit Rebels are out of this world. Usually cosplay costumes are more creative than well done, and when you stumble over a cosplay costume where the "builder" has really put his or her entire soul into it, you can really see ...
Insanely Mad Recycled Skateboard Deck Sculptures
Let's pretend for a second that you are a heck of a skateboarder, and in the process of learning your trade, you break an incredible number of boards before you finally started figuring out the tricks you want to learn. It's a long shot, I know, but keep this in mind for a few minutes. You are left ...
How To: Make Unicorn Poop Cookies
Finding out that unicorns aren't real is right up there with finding out that our parents played Santa Claus all those years. Unicorns were so much fun to believe in, and when that belief goes away, it stings. Some people say that unicorns are real. They are fat, ugly, gray, and called rhinos. Other ...
Behold The $5,800 Back Lit Lego Stormtrooper X-Ray Picture
I sometimes find myself in the predicament of wanting to find just the right picture or image to adorn my walls here in my office. As you know, we feature tons and tons of stuff, and even though I would take it all and plaster it all over the office, there is simply not enough room for it all. So I ...
Ultimate Mega Tattoos That Kidnap Your Attention
We write a lot about design here at Bit Rebels, but I feel like sometimes we neglect one huge area of design, and that is of course tattoos. Tattoos are such a widely spread concept that to not include them in the world's entire body of artwork would be a sin really. I mean, there are some nasty loo ...
The Fotoshop Beauty Regimen: No Self-Respect Needed
Everyone knows that Photoshop distorts reality, but to what extent? We are so used to seeing Photoshopped images everywhere we look these days that does it really even matter anymore? Hasn't it become a standard in the beauty and marketing industries that we've come to expect? To me, the effects of ...
Creative Library Ads: A Twist On Facebook, Twitter & YouTube
Maybe I sound like a nerd, but libraries used to be such a fun place to hang out back in the mid '90s. I remember the library at my University was an architectural masterpiece with floor to ceiling glass windows and spiral staircases to die for. Those days are long gone though. I can't even remember ...
World’s Most Expensive Business Cards ($1,500 Each!)
These business cards cost $1,500 each. You did the math in your head I'm sure. Yup, ten of these suckers cost $15,000. I know what you're thinking, and no, I'm not effing kidding you. It's things like this that remind me that there is a whole other world out there that I know nothing about. Who the ...
Stunning Portraits Painted With Red & White Wine
Wow, these paintings are spectacular. I would never guess that they were made using wine as the paint. We've written about beer used as paint, and cork from wine bottles used to make portraits, so I suppose it's about time that we write about these extraordinary paintings made with wine.
Artist E ...
12 Inspiring Posters That Form A Message To The Next Generation
All of us are so full of advice, and we usually give it out when we probably shouldn't, right? One of my favorite songs from 2011 is by Sara Bareilles, and it's called "King of Anything." She says she wrote that song to everyone who has ever given her advice (usually bad advice), when she didn't ask ...
