Bread ART

Coolhunting has a creepy post up about an artist in Thailand, Kittiwat Unarrom, who uses dough to icky, edible facsimiles of hand, feet, heads, torsos and other body parts. He comes from a family of breadbakers, and has been doing this grossout art since 2005 (or perhaps earlier, I'm seeing conflicting reports). Coolhunting snip:
The results are unnervingly realistic with eyes, lips and other details constructed out of cashews, raisins and the… Continue

Word for the day.

From the "Visual Thesaurus" site:
paternoster
It's a prayer! It's a device! It's both! The word is Latin for "our father," and denotes the Christian prayer that begins thus. From there, the word came to denote a regularly recurring bead on a rosary when said prayer was to be recited and from there, the word was used to denote a continuous lift or elevator with platforms, because of its resemblance to a rosary.

"Behind the Brooch"
I have always thought that the back of a jewelry piece is as important as the front. If you feel the same way, consider sending images of the front and backside of your brooches to Lorena Angulo asap. Lorena is looking for images to place in a future crafthaus online exhibition!
