Oh my bones

What is happening to me, I really like these bone condiment holders, maybe a sign of old age?

Clearly I am (ahem) too young to remember this the first time around…

Bathing with Peter and Jordan

This week-end we gave some Custardly lurving to people we admire. For Lush we started arsing around with some bath bomb creative ideas – the Sunday papers were very much our inspiration for the ‘Mysterious Girl’.

This playful bomb of 2 halves has an invisible twist of fate…  it’s a mysterious girl!!

Once placed in the water it immediately breaks in two with one half, the Blue Peter, dissolving into a violet haze. The other pink section refuses to disappear until it has released it’s glittery contents into your tub and generally been a bit of a pain hanging around for too long. It eventually falls apart by which time you’re already sipping your second glass of bubbly, reading an article in Lush News on how to remove blackheads and past caring.

We have only done the artwork for the ‘Mysterious Girl’ so far but others creatives we are playing around with include the ‘Brand’ – if we say it’s oily and smells of seduction you’ll know which comedian it is based on. The cherry on top is our ‘Alice in Wonderland’ which is 100% safe to eat and 100% gorgeous to bathe in.

We’ll let you know what Lush thinks later this week!

Anatomical Guiding Badges

anatomical, badges, guide

Loving these anatomical badges from Mary Year, if only there were around when I was a brownie (no pictures I am afraid) being a Sprite was dead boring. It was well known as the most rubbish pack.

The badges were found on Street Anatomy.  Whilst I am here might as well post these delicious brain cupcakes too, Halloween fun all year round. I feel sick.

Plastercast ‘Fun’

Yeah all the fun of plaster casting your body parts with no trips to casualty required. This hand plaster kit is awesome – and of course can be used for more than hands if you know what I am saying…

Fuck me the work of sculptor Eugenio Merin is way dark, even for me. Where does a black, famine stricken, Bart Simpson even come from?

Coconut Tabacco

The food wizards that are Bompas & Par (all their ideas are AMAZING) have just given me the best sweets ever – coconut tobacco. They wont tell me how they made it but I love the fact it comes in authentic tobacco packaging and contains tobacco (the black bits). Oh and it tastes bloody brilliant too – they are GENIUS!

Subversive Condiments

Set your table for dinner David Shrigley style – great for confusing your nan.

Shadow Chair

I totally adore these Shadow Chairs from Gaetano Pesce – yours for just over $3000. Glorious design.
