Star Trek Inspired Corset

Wow...just wow. This Star Trek inspired corset by Evening Arwen on Etsy is out of this world. There are just so many Star Trek quotes that can be abused here that my head is about to explode.

The Carafe Un Verre is blown in such a way to give the appearance of a bottle having a wine glass in its center and believe it or not, it's blown from a single piece of glass!

This Lorem Ipsum placeholder text should be familiar to all of you graphic designers and web designers out there!

Wall Stickers by Klaus Haapaniemi

These incredible and elaborate designs were created by Klaus Haapaniemi and are available on wall stickers from domestic.fr. These designs feature bold, imaginative characters like winged fairy frogs, a floral puss in boots and giant frogs with castles in images that depict what would have to be some of the greatest fairytales the mind can conjure up and I'm sure having them on your wall would be an inspiration.
If you like these then you should definitely check out his ceramic collection from Ittala as well.

Coin Purses for the Pennypincher

With the economy being the way it is you might be starting to feel the crunch a bit but blueq's cute change purses that say "My 2 Cents" and "This Economy Sucks" allow you to express your opinion about the contents of your wallet without saying a word. Is your 2 cents all you have left...or maybe you just can't resist adding yours to the conversation? Then here's a good place to store it until you're ready to impart your knowledge (or until you're ready to spend it on some penny candies)!

Fish in SPAAAAACE!

If your goldfish wants to be an astronaut when he grows up then maybe you should look into getting this Fish in Space Aquarium so he can start training. I probably wouldn't get this particular aquarium since I think a fish should have a lot more room to play but if your fish says he wants to be an astronaut, well, what can you do?

Wow, it's a cute and cartoony pot of gold that's been left at the bottom of a pretty rainbow! Could this treasure have been left by a leprechaun? This design is perfect for you if you're lucky or if you could use a little of the luck o' the Irish and it's great for St. Patrick's Day too!

Lunch Bag Art

I've just discovered Lunch Bag Art which is a site where a dad posts the lunch bags that he decorates for his kids and I have to say that I'm now a huge fan. Check out the amazing work below (a squid, Dream from Sandman and the Iron Giant)!

Word Lovers Unite!

It's been a while since I made a post that doesn't include any pictures so I thought I'd make a quick one today that celebrates the joy of text.

Here are a couple of really fun sites for those who love words...

Save The Words: http://savethewords.org

Save The Words invites you to adopt a word that's practically been dropped from the english language. What do you do once you adopt it?
Spread the word about your word, of course!
Words like bumposopher, squiriferous and volgivagant are waiting for you to resurrect them.

Wordie: http://wordie.org

"Wordie lets you make lists of words and phrases. Words you love, words you hate, words on a given topic, whatever."

The Phrontistery: http://phrontistery.info

The Phrontistery is home to some useful (and interesting) word resources including the International House of Logorrhea (a free online dictionary of weird and unusual words) and the Compendium of Lost Words (a list of rare modern english words).

Enjoy!

Claddagh T-Shirts and Gifts

The Claddagh ring is a traditional Irish symbol of friendship and love and with this design I wanted to incorporate the warmth of its roots.

This Claddagh design comes in kelly green or royal purple and is available on t-shirts, stickers, buttons, journals, mugs, mousepads, St. Patrick's day cards, tote bags and many more great gift ideas!
