OMG look at the inside - this is the most amazing car I have ever seen!
DROOLING so badly over this car I should be wearing a bib!
Auction house Robson Kay is selling the “ Panthèremobile, the famous wheels of the Pink Panther. Estimated price is between £50,000 and £100,000 pounds (I think it’s pretty obvious that it is going to go for SO much more).
So I collected the long awaited solid chocolate human skull from the post office today and I have to say it is one of the most amazing edible structures I have ever seen (or am ever likely to see). A big claim but I stand by it as remember this is 100% solid edible delicious chocolate cast from a real human skull (you can see the detail in some of the c/u images which is staggering). It’s also made me so excited about the edible autopsy I am almost scared (massively glossing over the fact that writing up the latest version of the document made me physically gag). The solid chocolate human skeleton is going to blow everyone’s minds & having now got a skull I know that Marina Malvada of Chocolate Skulls is absolutely going to deliver the goods (not that I ever doubted it). Maybe I have become ‘desensitised’ but the fact you can see ever single detail of this persons skull (& even teeth) blows me away…
I have covered both their Star Wars & Sesame Street burlesque before and Devil’s Playground continue to be on top form with this series Anime themed performances under the name Anime Babes: Characters from Pokemon, Tokyo Mew Mew, Fullmetal Alchemist, Sailor Moon, Speed Racer and Neon Genesis Evangelion made an appearance throughout the night. Pichachu (Lucy Fur) has to be my favourite stand out performance despite not being the best looking dancer in the show by a long way… (via LA Weekly)
This is such a feel good blog post from Lost at E Minor 
))))))
This anonymous crew from Chicago have collaborated with artists from all over the world to produce feel-good, inspiring street art with one message: YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL. You can find their lyrical work on top of buildings, on trains, against a park fences, written in a multitude of different ways…
F-Bomb-A-Thom may be a random response to the BP oil spill but it kind of works and is beautifully shot. For a brilliant ‘OMG are people that backward’ moment also check out this response on the creative: ‘UnF–kTheGulf.com’ Ad Mixes Children and Profanity to Push Left Message the messages are unintentionally really really funny.
Anyway fuck those loosers above I think this manifesto rocks:
Postcards to Alphaville is a project dedicated to film characters featured in guest-made illustrations. Everyone participating in this adventure has to watch a film and make postcard portraying specific character from it. It is love-letter to films and those characters that brings us, the viewers, moments of joy, sorrow and revelation and sometimes seems more real than the neighbor next-door.
OH MY GOD it all seems so real now as it is – Tate & Lyle are kindly supporting the project and it’s go go go. Amazing creative talents already involved with works of art & cake being planned which will blow your minds (clearly I did not write the release but want to post it unedited hence twattish referring to myself in third person).
Miss Cakehead, of Cakehead Loves Evil, has teamed up with Tate & Lyle for the first ever Mad Artists Tea Party with Lily Vanilli as Curator of Cake. An original concept from Miss Cakehead, it will pair the World’s most creative cake makers with artists and creatives who want to ‘create with cake’ to produce one-off edible artworks for auction.
All of the art created for the tea parties will exist only temporarily, and only in edible form in the medium of cake. Artists confirmed include David A Smith, Stuart Semple, George Morton Clarke, Pete Fowler, Felt Mistress, stenSOUL, The Futureheads, FAUST and Alexander Turvey with cake-ists including the astonishingly talented food artist Prudence Staite, Bea’s of Bloomsbury, Michelle Wibowo, Crumbs & Doilies, Lily Vanilli & ‘Jellymongers’ Bompas & Parr.
Leading up to the event Miss Cakehead will be touring ‘Cake Britain’ with her edible cupcake tree – an art installation and creative consumer experience that will allow children to literally ‘pick’ their own cupcakes off the tree in a bizarre twist on traditional pick your own farms. The inspiration of the tree coming from The Faraway Tree series of books by Enid Blyton, a concept followed through as the cupcake tree will never ‘grow’ the same cakes twice.
Cake fans be afraid – The next Mad Artist Tea Party event has already been planned. Eat Your Heart Out will be the world’s first 18+ cake shop containing VERY horrifying & VERY extreme Halloween edibles.
Notes for editors:
Ooooooo I am in a right lather over this cake soaps (sorry not had my lunch yet and it’s half three) – I may be wrong but the fact they are so perfect looking overcomes the ‘all novelty soaps are shit’ factor! They were available on Etsy, but the store now appears closed (via The Trendy Girl).
