Eraser Shavings Turn Mistakes Into Happy Accidents
I love "happy accidents" art. Actually, there is no art that is officially called happy accidents; I just call it that. I heard that phrase when I was a little girl, and I started using it a long time ago to describe artwork that encourages mistakes since in order to grow, we have to make lots of mi ...
Star Wars Themed Tea Set Puts The Force Into Your Morning
I guess by now it's no secret that I am a huge tea fanatic. I tweet it every time I have a hot cup like anyone would actually care.

Mammoth Lego Organ Barrel Plays The Star Wars Theme
It's not too often that we see Lego used to create music. As a matter of fact, I could probably count how many times I've seen it using just the fingers on my right hand.
