Your Daily Cute: Get Schooled By Some Needle Felted Owls
Needle felting is becoming more and more popular, and looking at these little owls, I can see why. These are definitely the cutest little things I've seen all week. This collection is called "In the schoolyard," and as you see, there are needle felted teachers, students, a headmaster and even a bull ...
Barbie Got Inked: The World’s First Tattooed Barbie
Apparently some parents are really upset by the first tattooed Barbie doll hitting the store shelves. I don't really see what the big deal is, and, just for the record, this is not technically the world's first tattooed Barbie doll. Ask any girl who had access to a black sharpie when she was growing ...
The Newest Dazzling Daft Punk Coca-Cola Bottle Design
If you remember, earlier this year Coca-Cola released its first Daft Punk inspired limited edition bottle design. The design itself was a little too gaudy for my taste, but it definitely reflected the style of Daft Punk electronic music. Well, they are at it again, and the two have collaborated to c ...
Water Calligraphy Device: Decorate The Streets With Water
There is an ancient Chinese custom of writing messages on the streets with water. Although it creates a beautiful and natural decoration, there is a little more behind this tradition than that. The reason water is used is not only to make the messages temporary, but also because in Chinese Fung shui ...
The Sling Shot Camera: Make Your Photos Deviously Fun
We all know how important photos are these days, especially in social media. We now use pictures as a way to validate and verify (or secure bragging rights) for claims made by users. You know the saying, "pics or it didn't happen." There is even a whole psychology behind women and Facebook photos. T ...
Photography: Squished Bugs Peeled From A Car Windshield
I've noticed there are two types of people in the world when it comes to bugs. There are some people who hate bugs, and they stomp, swat or squish them every chance they get. There are other people who don't believe in killing bugs since they are part of nature, and they simply aren't bothered by th ...
Undercap: The Stylish Underwear For Your Head
*Warning: This is stupid* The only thing I've ever written about that is stupider than this is How To: Get Jersey Shore Hair. I mean, really. I wonder where inventions like this originate, but even more importantly, who exactly are the people who come up with this stuff? I have no idea. However, fro ...
Unusual Hotels: The Underground Cozy Cave Hotel In Sweden
There are so many unusual and interesting hotels in the world, and I think it would be a lot of fun to take a trip around the world, visit all my social media friends, and stay in these wildly unique hotels. Sweden seems to be a place with a lot of these kind of places. I stumble across them often. ...
Ultra Realistic Paintings Will Make You Question What’s Real
After being on the Internet since probably its early beginnings, many of us have seen some really cool stuff shoot by on the screen from time to time. Of course, there's a lot of junk, but sometimes there are things that create a lasting memory. It doesn't happen too often, but when it does, it sure ...
Beer Paintings: Extraordinary Art Painted With Beer
Well damn, who needs paint when you have beer, right? I'm a big fan of beer. Most ladies I know drink wine instead of beer, and I suppose that is a bit more sophisticated and ladylike. However, even after all I've learned about wine from Twitter's wine expert, @RickBakas, I still prefer beer. And, o ...
Famous Photographs From History Recreated In Lego
Two of our favorite topics to write about on Bit Rebels are Star Wars and Lego. We are inspired by both of them, and they never get old. That is probably because there are always creative new things out there to share with you. It just never ends, and that is of course thanks to all the Star Wars an ...
Wear Your Lunch: A Trendy & Tasty Jewelry Collection
Haven't you always wanted to wear a hot pink chicken wing necklace, a bacon bracelet or a whipped cream and cherry ring? Me neither, but apparently some people do.

Pictogram Song Posters: A Picture Is All It Takes [12 Pics]
I think we are all familiar with the saying that a picture is worth more than a thousand words, right? For songwriters, the big challenge has always been to deliver a message based on melody and lyrics, yet still get the core of your thoughts understood. It doesn't necessarily have to be a deep thou ...
The Bacon Font: A Uniquely Delicious Alphabet
Even after writing at least a dozen articles about bacon, I'm still baffled by our fascination with it. I admit that I am a true bacon lover, and I can put away a pound of bacon like it was nobody's business, but our obsession with bacon goes beyond just eating it. I remember it started back around ...
Stylish Shoes Molded From Recycled Cardboard
When I was doing research for this article, I learned a lot about cardboard with regards to recycling. There are two types of cardboard. The first is what's called corrugated cardboard, and it's the type of cardboard we normally see things packed in for shipping. It has that lightweight ruffled laye ...
