9 Famous Sweaters We’ll Never Forget [Chart]
Now that the weather is getting a little cooler, it's time to start think about this year's sweater collection. Instead of the same old traditional fuzzy sweaters that I normally choose, this year, I'm looking forward to getting something a little more creative. I want some sweaters with a little mo ...

Art With Salt: Link & Super Mario Created With Salt [Videos]
Salt is probably one of the most important ingredients when cooking, and I am sure most people out there don't use salt for any other purpose than cooking or sprinkling on food. The thing is, I didn't either until I came across a couple of videos last night. Salt can make pretty much anything taste ...
A Stunning Stormtrooper Helmet Created From Adidas Sneakers
Earlier this month, Richard wrote an article about a new website called Star Wars Remix. It's a site dedicated to everything Star Wars, and if you have an ordinary item in your daily life that is modded into something Star Wars, you can submit it for publishing. I keep saying I'm going to send in a ...
Floating Houses: Levitation Photography Gets Spooky
If you remember, a few months ago the self-levitating photography art of Natsumi Hayashi, the teenager from Tokyo, exploded on the Internet. Once that happened, suddenly it became cool to levitate. We even published an article that explained how to photograph yourself in the air.
It seems as thou ...
For The Artist In Your Life: The Happy Accidents Tablecloth
When I was a child, I had an art teacher once who used to always tell us, "In art, there are no such things as mistakes, only happy accidents." I always remembered that my whole life. I think it's a great attitude and simple philosophy to remember when applied to any form of creativity. If we adopt ...
A Futuristic Digital Library Created With Colorful LED Books
Now that I read about this more, I'm not sure if looks like a futuristic library or a library museum. One thing is for sure though, with all the creative ways artists are interpreting books lately, it seems they are no longer primarily used for reading anymore. However, that doesn't necessarily mean ...
Paper Roll Portraits: Amazingly Creative Paper Art
I have always found it impressive to see how differently people look at a piece of paper. While some people might see an origami fold, other people see a funny comic. The range of things you can create with a piece of paper is endless, and the only thing that will really hold you back is your own im ...
Colorful Cat Hats: Give Your Cute Cat Some Style
About a week ago, Richard wrote an article about dog cosplay costumes. In that post, he asked the question, "When did we start putting clothes on our pets?" To answer that, it's been happening for a long time now. I have friends who have entire closets dedicated to their pet's wardrobe. Personally, ...
Life-Size Wild Animals Made From Tiny Wood Chips
All the artists we write about on Bit Rebels are impressive, otherwise we wouldn't write about them. Each one has a unique style, and each artist we feature has his or her own special way of wowing others with insane skill and talent. However, as we have said before, there are some that just seem to ...
Gorgeous Dress Made From Old Magazines & Garbage Bags
Let me just start this article by saying if I tried to make a dress out of old magazines and garbage bags, it would look like something fit for the trash can, so the fact that this artist can make it look couture blows my mind. Gone are the days when fashion designs created from recycled household p ...
Your Favorite Superheroes Made From Paint Splashes
You know what these paint-splashed superheroes remind me of? A few months ago, there was an art installation that was everywhere on the Internet. I didn't write about it because quite honestly, it was kinda gross. It was where a woman would drink different colored juices, and then put her finger dow ...
Living Typography: Simple Birdhouses Designed For Sparrows
I've gone through a lot of changes in my in the past few years, and if you've also felt yourself grow and stretch, you've probably noticed a longing to be closer to nature. It's an interesting thing when that happens, but one clue that we are developing as a person and changing is that we have a cra ...
Raw Meat Gun Designs (Good Enough To Eat)
As I've written before, I grew up with guns. I lived in the deep south for many years, and out in the country, owning a gun is as popular as owning a pickup truck. I even have a few guns registered to me now (a 380 Colt, which is retro and not made anymore, and a rifle). I've been to the gun range t ...

Sleeveface: Album Covers Are Popular Once Again [10 Pics]
I have to admit, I'm getting kinda sick of the planking, owling, cone-ing, horsemaning and now batmanning trends. I'm coming to realize that nothing can be as good as the original, which in my opinion is sleevefacing. You've probably seen different examples of sleeveface over the years, but maybe no ...
Don’t Look Down: The World’s Scariest Ferris Wheel
I've written about some scary designs before, but I never thought it would be in the form of a carnival ride. Since my heart would beat out of my chest, I probably wouldn't play tennis on this tennis court, and I wouldn't let my child play on this playground. Oh, and I wouldn't swim in this deadly s ...
