Bath Mat: The Wonderful Recycled Use Of 175 Wine Corks

Tie Case: Recycle Your Old Ties Into Wallets And Cases
Being a kind of laid back person, I don't have the payload of ties to brag about. Sure, I do have my mandatory set of ten ties (trying to expand my collection), but working in front of a computer all day doesn't exactly set me up in a forum where I need a tie to represent myself. In the summers, i ...
Low on Cash? Paint Your Car with a Sharpie!
Remember the guy back in 2008 who painted his Lamborghini with a sharpie? I suppose saying "painted his car" is a stretch. Instead I'll say he "decorated his car" with a sharpie. In case you missed that a few years ago, I put some pictures below. Fast forward to 2010, now it seems someone else h ...
Photography: The Best Looking Bad Hair Day Ever
I haven't featured any photography for a while, and these pictures are so unique, I couldn't resist. Why is it that some women can roll of bed, run their fingers through their hair and go?

Recycling: The Merry-Go-Round Made Out Of Bicycles!
This article is near and dear to me because I love merry-go-rounds, I love my bicycle and more than both of those, I love recycling. This artistic creation combines all three of those.

Frankenlovely: Our Obsession With Image & Youth Illustrated
It is no surprise that we live in an image and youth obsessed culture. Most of the women I know are either obsessed with having the perfect face, the perfect body or even just the perfect hair. My question is, what is perfect anyway and why do we scratch and claw our way through so many headaches ...
Star Trek Illustrations: Could You Draw These With Your Eyes Closed?
Do you know what blind contour drawing is? I never heard of that term before today, although after I read about what it is, I realized I've done many drawings this way.
Blind contour drawing is when you look intently at the object you are drawing, and you draw it without looking down at the piec ...
Spare Wood Becomes Stunningly Cute Wooden Robots
Recycling can be done in so many ways, and it's important to know that as little as it may seem that you are doing by recycling, overall it makes a big difference.

Unusual Art: Blowtorched, Crushed & Shot Apple Products

This Is What Happens When Artists Do Too Much…
Artists have a way of exaggerating reality in order to highlight their subject, and usually it is in every possible visual way. It becomes the tool to catch people's attention and to change the look on the subject, they try to deliver. However, for every artist that exaggerates reality, we get eve ...
Recycling Inspiration: A House Made From Newspapers
Do you know of anyone that still gets their news from a newspaper? I remember when I was a little girl, we had a "paper boy" that delivered a newspaper to our house every morning. I don't know of anyone that reads a newspaper anymore. I don't like newspapers because they make my hands dirty, so l ...
