Who says you need to fix roads? Just send artist Juliana Santacruz Herrera to knit the holes away! They just need to set her up on the side of the street with a lawn chair and some knitting needles so she can get on each pothole as it comes along. Put …

Check out these cool magazine covers and fashion ads by Inge Jacobsen– she stitched these by hand and each cover took her 2 months. That’s a lot of patience! Once upon a time, I used to needle-craft like an golden-aged, church lady on a mission! It was addictive and I would …

Rhode Island School of Design graduate Marion Peck produces some incredibly, lovable-yet – creepy art. Her art reminds me of the same mood as Mark Ryden, but slightly more kitschy. The kitty portraits are the best! They all look like they were given a long-ass bath prior to the portrait. Calgon …

Check out the work of Debra Baxter. She uses crystals, glass, bronze and alabaster in her work. I always thought crystals were for those Salem types with New Age music playing while they’re freaking out over their tarot cards. I guess I’m wrong! My fave , of course , is the …

  Artist Brian Dettmer (above )maybe the mad scientist of book dissecting! He takes old books and dissects them into precious works of art. “I work with knives, tweezers and surgical tools to carve one page at a time, exposing each layer while cutting around ideas and images of interest. …

If you ever wanted to dissect a frog, mouse, crocodile or Easter bunny  without the guts and gore , look no further than The Crafty Hedgehog. Complete with organs on display, these knit creations are sure to make anyone barf. Seriously, I can appreciate the craft going into to making a …

Check out these cool photos by Norwegian Sandra Jensen! She is also the model in the most of the photos- what a gorgeous chameleon! And I believe the mooshmuffin baby in the photos is her babyfriend. I can’t resist a baby’s butt! Sandra works with the fantastic Fam Irvoll regularly and …

  Check out these porcelain dishware  dresses by Li Xiaofeng. It’s like so cool, yet so dangerous! If one piece breaks and cuts you, you’re kinda screwed. I wonder how he affixed the porcelain into a dress shape. Completely amazing, if you ask me. This is one to wear to …
