Just another example of how auctions have really awesome stuff. This one is the "Fall Toy and Americana" auction through Mosby & Co.

Brigitte Bardot

It's been months since I posted, so I wanted to kick it off again with something awesome a friend just showed me. It's a dvd titled "Divine B.B," which is a collection of Brigitte Bardot music videos that are amazing. The music is totally cheesy, the sets incredible visions of 60's mod and theatrics, and naturally Bardot is utterly intoxicating in every scene. I've only picked one, but watching the entire thing is gemful- except maybe one of them...it's very clearly from the seventie's and there's awkward straddling of a motorcycle involved.


You can get the dvd here.

"I was very scared and a bit daunted! But to find one's way anywhere one has to find one's door, just like, Alice; you see. You take too much of one thing and you get too big, then you take too much of another and you get too small. You've got to find your own way into things..."

make crochet, not war

I love these creative crochet bombs from woowork.com. Make them yourself!
There is even a video to go along with it ;-) Enjoy.

Reuben Margolin's kinetic sculptures are pretty amazing. Sculptors like this really blend the line between engineering and art- and nature for that matter.
