Tea bag peeps

hahahahhaha how amazing are these!!

In order they are called:

'a cup of fame'

'royal tea'

'strip tea'

I'd love a little person to bathe in my cup of tea!

They are made in Germany by Donkey Products.

'Wearable Technology'

Cute Circuit have designed a dress called the 'Galaxy Dress'; covered in coloured LEDs, the dress glows the colours of the rainbow. I want to wear it; check out the video on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rX9FOGFxN9A

Meese

Recently my housemates were debating what the plural is for moose..
Goose, Geese... correct
Moose, Meese ...surely
Moose is actually a singular and plural term. HOWEVER, I like the word meese.
Thus a new word has been created; look at the picture of the meese!

Embrace the tea stain!

Stain is a set of a teacups designed to improve through use. This project examines the assumption that use is damaging to a product.
The interior surface of the cup is treated so as to stain more in predetermined places. The more the cups are used, the more the pattern is revealed. Over time they will build up an individual pattern dependent on the users personal way of drinking tea. (Bethan Laura Wood , online)

Giant Jewels

I've enjoyed Nicola Malkin's work for a couple of years now, even though her designs are impractical and technically redundant from their everyday function they bring humour and spectacle.. check out her beautiful work: http://www.nicolamalkin.com/index.html

Good Find Kathy

I did my dissertation on 'The Gigantic' and one of my housemates found this for me, I didn't even realise it was Diana Vickers! But I love the dress and the GIANT bow, if only it came in purple.

Edible Art!

I love the website Folksy, there is so much to see and the best thing is it's British so you can buy things! It's mainly arty, crafty hand-made things.

The seller 'British Cream Tea' has made all types of classic English treats from felt, as seen above. Although they are rather pricey they're nice to look at! These are my 2 favourites, I love an egg and marmite soldiers! And you can never go wrong with Dolly Mixtures.. Have a browse http://folksy.com/shops/britishcreamtea
