Edible City: Shanghai China Recreated In Bakery Sweets
A lot of times people ask me if I have a personal blog. I always just direct them here. Bit Rebels is not a personal blog per se; however, to me it kind of is. The reason I say that is because for both Misty and me, we chronicle our lives here. For example, if I'm hungry, I write about food. If I'm ...
Existential Photography: I Am More Than My Face
As you know, I'm on a photography kick lately, and I'm loving every minute of it. So far this week, I've been writing one photography post per day to feature a unique technique or creative view of self-expression. It's been a blast to choose what to showcase each day. I don't know how long I'll cont ...
Photography: The Most Beautiful Snakes In The World
I've been finding some really neat photography lately, and it's quickly becoming one of my favorite topics to write about. When I saw this series of photographs called "Serpent Still Lifes," I was mesmerized. How could a photographer get so close to so many live snakes and take such interesting shot ...

Star Wars Posters: They Don’t Get More Minimalistic Than This
When I look at really creative and impressive posters, I always get a little childish thinking that I want to plaster my walls with them all over again. You know, just like we did when we were little kids, and we had every chance in the world to act like it as well. My walls were completely covered ...
Typography: Alphabet Created From Old Train Set
I've never seen train set typography before today, and I love it! I am a sucker for old trains, and if I had a spare room in my house, I would keep a train set assembled all the time. We've featured a lot of creative alphabets on Bit Rebels before. If you are looking for a creative way to teach your ...

The Beauty Of Selective Color Photography [10 Pics]
I've always been interested in photography, but it wasn't until I got my iPhone 4 that my passion for photography really came alive. There are just so many incredible free photography apps to download that I could spend all my spare time doing nothing but playing with new apps. Photoshop is another ...
Creative Skull Crafted From Real Human Brains
This seems like a no brainer, doesn't it? What better material could an artist use to make a skull than human brains? In this particular case, skull artist Noah Scalin used pickled and preserved brain slices to be exact.
Before you immediately think this is morbid (which I also did at first), aft ...
Freaky Unicorn Sculptures: Let The Nightmares Begin
Maybe I've been watching too many horror movies lately or not getting enough sleep. For some reason, I've been finding some really scary stuff online lately, and it's creeping me out. A few days ago I brought you these completely strange Brutal Knitting masks. Today, it's something even more bone ch ...
Temporary Lip Tattoos: Get The Lady Gaga Effect
Are you tired of the same old boring lip gloss? Are your lipstick colors making you feel outdated? Well now you can dress up your lips in a style that some say will be the next big fashion trend. These are temporary lip tattoos.
The particular tattoos shown in this article were launched last mont ...
Badass Spiders Made From TSA Confiscated Scissors
If you travel much by airplane, you've probably seen the big buckets of items confiscated at the airport security checkpoints. Last month when I was at the airport in Toronto, I was blown away by the huge plastic container that was almost as tall as me filled with everything from used toothpaste con ...
Brutal Knitting: Don’t Mess With This Yarn
I don't think I've ever seen the words brutal and knitting in the same sentence before. When I think of knitting, I think of sweet grandmas who carry around a little bag with different colors of yarn and knitting needles. I don't usually think of scary masks that might give me nightmares.
This wo ...
Discarded Maps Recycled Into Impressive Human Portraits
It's quite impressive to think that some people out there go out of their way to recycle their old things into new ones. It doesn't really matter what it is, they seem to find a use for it anyway. Sometimes the new use is even better than the old one. It's easy to be amazed by the Steampunk creation ...
18 Augmented Photographs: A World Within Our Own World
As Bit Rebels has evolved, we have featured a lot of photographers and illustrators here on the website. Every time we find something we haven't seen before, we lovingly write about it to perhaps inspire other photographers or illustrators to play with the idea or further develop it.

Make Your Own Steampunk Mr. Potato Head
After seeing this steampunked Mr. Potato Head, I am officially convinced that absolutely anything can be steampunked. I'm just waiting for the day when someone steampunks their whole house, you know it's coming, right?
Instructables member saritamarianyc from New York put a steampunk spin on this ...
