Street Installations by Mark Jenkins



Ahhh! Lookie at what I found. This artist who does this sort of street art by making sculptures and placing them in random places. The artist, Mark Jenkins, calls them "Street Installations." I only wish the town I live in was this cool.

Stanislav Katz

This is called SpiderTable, but it reminds me more of one of the shapes from Tetris.


Stanislav Katz is a furniture company that designs really funky modern furniture. Like that bookshelf above, pretty much amazing right?



LoopyBoopy


My brother and I used to play with polymer clay a while ago just to make little people or birthday gifts. We never quite go the hang of it though. But today I found this one shop on Etsy. It's called Loopyboopy and they make really cool figurines. Their figures are really creative and almost a little bit creepy, but in a good way. I only wish I could be this good.

Aromaleigh Cosmetics and Aromatics



In addition to being interested in photography, drawing and fashion, i like makeup. Not necessarily putting it on to get all "glammed up." I like make up for the art of it, you can get creative with it. You can get especially creative with this makeup that I came across a little while ago. The company is called Aromaleigh. They have a bunch of beauty products, but what sparks my interest the most are the eye shadows. They have a line of shadows called "Aromaleigh Rocks! Sonic Cosmetics Mineral Eyeshadow." They come in a ton of colors that are very vibrant and colorful. the site also has a bunch of pictures submitted by users showing just how creative you can get. The only trouble is picking out which colors to get!

Free Rice!

My English teacher told our class about this website that donates rice if you answer vocabulary questions correctly. It's called FreeRice. You are given a word and you have to choose the best definition out of 4 other words (multiple choice). For every word you define correctly, 20 grains of rice are donated to the United Nations to help fight world hunger. It says on the site that a total of about 17,461,100,870 grains of rice have been donated so far! You should join in too! You don't need to create and account or give them your e-mail address or anything, just go to the site and start donating. Plus, you're learning while donating. It's like killing two birds with one stone, haha.

My DeviantArt!


Yay! A while back, on the fourth of July actually, I made a DeviantArt account that I pretty much forgot about. So a few days ago I finally added my first deviation, or image (art, let's hope). I have several deviations now. They aren't my favorites, and I wish I could add more. But that would present a problem as ALL of my pictures that were saved on my school computer account got deleted after the semester ended. So now I have to start all over again. Great. I hope to have more online soon though. There are quite a few pieces that I made in my drawing class that will hopefully be submitted soon also.

Blik


"What is blik you ask? blik is an I.D. Magazine award-winning* line of surface graphics created by and for people who like to change their mind. These self-adhesive wall decals (think stickers for grown-ups) allow you to easily transform the look of a living or office space in minutes. Affix blik to any smooth, flat surface such as a wall, window, mirror, ceiling, tabletop or floor. Choose your space, plan the design you'd like to make, and literally, just peel and stick. And when you're tired of your design, say after years, a month, maybe a day - the decals are removable."

This is perfect! I tend to change my mind a lot about my living space. I have to switch things up frequently. These wall decals are just what I need. They're sort of like stickers and you can put them on your walls, in an office a living room, wherever! Plus, they have a ton of different designs to use, even some from threadless, the t-shirt company. And, they have a special group of them to stick on glass.
