DIY "Trashy" Valentines from Curbly...

Here's a really cute idea that I found on Curbly by swelldesigner. Make your own 'trashy' valentines by using your junk mail... looks like a fun way of recycling all that annoying junk mail!

If you like this kind of fun/funky art, also check out the shadowboxes by Baltimore Artstar. I really love stuff like this!

Getting in the Mood...

If you aren't already in the Halloween spirit- check out these cute... er cool, skeletal coffee mugs from skeletaldropkick. When I got too old for trick or treating, my mum actually used to 'surprise' us with our own little candy stash in a decorative mug... Too bad these little beauties weren't around at the time! For your own skeletal coffee mug, or perhaps a festive set of ceramic horns, I really recommend checking out the stuff for sale in her etsy shop. I really dig the squid teapot myself and the wee mummy bowl. If you really want a mind-blowing moment, watch her create one of her wild scuptures on this video, my 3 year old got a really big kick out of this one.
