Porcelain Creations
Finding a little gem that hasn't been yet been plastered across sites such as DesignTaxi or Colossal must be one of my favourite things ever. Reminds me of when you were a child sifting through sand on the beach and you spot that one perfect seashell. Through some Instagram stalking, stumbled across Pilar Rojas, a designer of porcelain objects and jewellery. Her photos are really lovely and her . . .
Penny Drawings
How would you like to put the Wild West in your pocket? San Diego-based artist Sam Larson makes that possible with his tiny illustrations that depict scenes inspired by the American West, no bigger than a penny. Larson’s illustrations feature cowboys, mountain ranges, forest scenes, wildlife, and more - posted on his Instagram feed every night. How does one even draw that in that . . .
Everyday Whimsy
If you'd like to add some happy to your Instagram feed, add @cintascotch. He's been on my feed for quite a while now and certainly has that effect on me, so just wanted to share the love. Ecuador-based illustrator Javier Pérez came up with an illustrated series called ‘Instagram Experiments’, where he uses everyday household objects and turns them into clever, whimsical illustrations. Check out . . .
Baby Naps
Here's a little heartwarming tidbit to get you through your Wednesday. Seeing a toddler is cute enough. Spotting a puppy makes you want to run over and pick it up. Having both of them in one photo? Can feel myself melting a little... Mother of three Jessica Shyba (aka mommasgonecity) has just released an adorable series of photos. They recently adopted a little boxer/shepherd/lab mix from SPCA . . .
Flying Stuff
That awkward moment when you spill your drink. The whole thing seems to happen in slow motion and before you know it, the contents of your cup are now on your lap (or someone else's). Either way, rapid napkin blotting often does not suffice so you briskly walk to the bathroom and come out with a wet patch that you hope will be unnoticed - normally it's not. That situation might sound familiar to . . .
Take My Hand
Murad Osmann and his girlfriend Natalia Zakharova travel the world. "Big whoop, so do many others", you might say. However, they put their own unique spin to their photos and word about them have spread far and wide. "Follow Me" was the title of the photo series posted on Murad's Instagram account - and follow him the world did. The music video producer now boasts of 254k followers. "The first . . .
Perfect Pairs
Today marks our six year anniversary. The first boyfriend. The ex-best friend. The one who I asked not to tell anyone when we first started dating, just in case it didn't last longer than a week (everyone found out anyway). However, looks like it worked out just fine... This is just something that I was going to blog about a long time ago, but never got around to it. Let me just be sickly sweet . . .
Instagram Creativity
When Instagram decided to update its original terms of service for 2013, there was endless backlash and it soon backed down. However, Instagram users still seem to be fleeing in large numbers; the photo-sharing app lost more than half of all its active users in the past month, pushing numbers down from 16.3 million daily active users to 7.6 million. It didn't, however, chase away video-maker . . .
