Creative Solutions For Artists Who Can’t Draw Hands
I used to draw quite a bit when I was younger, and somehow I managed to get good grades in art in school. Since then, I have gone from pencil to mouse. Hopefully one day I will have the opportunity to move beyond the mouse and get into more intuitive drawing on the computer. I know a lot of people w ...
They’re Back: Welcome To The Jungle On Cellos
Earlier this year when cellists Stjepan Hauser and Luka Sulic came out with their rendition of Michael Jackson's Smooth Criminal, the world went crazy and their video almost immediately went viral. Their new single, which is a cover of Guns N' Roses' Welcome to the Jungle, is already creating a huge ...
Delicious New Trend: Websites Created Out Of Chocolate
I have a trend alert for you, and it tastes delicious! Have you ever seen a chocolate website? I'm not referring to a website that sells chocolates or that is designed to look like chocolate. I'm talking about a website that is actually made out of chocolate. It seems like a bizarrely wonderful conc ...

United States: 50 State Stereotypes [Humor]
This is hilarious to me because if you live in the United States, you know there are stereotypes that accompany each state. I'm not a fan of stereotypes when they refer to individual people because they can be hurtful and damaging, but I'm all over it when it refers to a whole State because it's jus ...
Recycled Floppy Disk Art: Retro Technology Gets A New Life
Of all the creative artwork I've written about on Bit Rebels over the past two years, this is definitely one of my favorites. It combines technology, painting, recycling and a human touch, all flavored with that retro feeling we love so much. I remember when I first saw the works of Nick Gentry. It ...
Stuff Nobody Tells Us About Life Illustrated
I love it when artists find a way to incorporate the life lessons they've learned through their experiences into creative illustrations and visuals. An example of this is in the article In A Perfect World: Life's Daily Annoyances Illustrated.
Another artist who creates "life illustrations" is Ale ...
The Pencil Chair: Never Lose Your Pencils Again
How many times have you been at home and needed to write a quick note, but you couldn't find a pencil anywhere? I prefer a pencil to a pen, but regardless of how many I buy and bring into my home, it seems I can never find one when I need it.
When I look at this creative chair made out of pencils ...
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 ...
If You Can’t Get Enough Of Star Wars: Office Supply X-Wing
If you are confined within the four walls of your office during your working hours, I am sure you have thought about pretty much everything that could keep you inspired to continue working. We can't all have the top floor office with the amazing city view where a pair of binoculars could keep you bu ...
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 ...
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 ...
The Lollipop Chair Made From Pure Sugar
Ahh... a chair made out of pure sugar. Could life get any sweeter than this? Too bad about that New York Times article last month, which said sugar might be toxic. I think I'm going to forget about that and dream of licking this chair till it's all gone. Ignorance is bliss, right?
The designer, P ...
DIY Pancake Art: Perfect For Breakfast In Bed
Playing with food is fun, isn't it? It's one of those things we're told not to do when we're young, which may be why it's extra fun when we are adults. I remember last year when I wrote about Jim's Pancakes. Jim is a wonderful father who creates fun pancake designs for his daughter. When I look at s ...
Soft & Fuzzy: Creative Felt Designs
I love felt. I don't know what it is about it, but it's a great material. It's got the yin and the yang. It's soft, yet tough. It can be colorful or dull. It's so versatile you can wear it in the form of socks or clean your car with it. I would probably drape myself in felt if it were socially accep ...
Unfreakingbelievable Watermelon Carvings
It's almost summer, which means it's time to start spending more time outside with friends and loved ones. One of my favorite parts of the summer is planning fun BBQs and going to the park. Eating watermelon is a summertime tradition here in Atlanta, and I thought a fun way to kick off the season wo ...
