Trick Candles

 

 

I have cactuses on my porch. After watching this video, I’ve been encouraged to put googly eyes on them.

 

 

 

Crayon Miracle by Locust Toybox. Makes one look at the world lackadaisically. Seriously just look around.

Yarn bombing, yarnstorming, guerrilla knitting, or graffiti knitting is a type of graffiti or street art that employs colorful displays of knitted or crocheted cloth rather than paint or chalk.

While yarn installations – called yarn bombs or yarnstorms – may last for years, they are considered non-permanent, and, unlike graffiti, can be easily removed if necessary. Nonetheless, the practice is still technically illegal, though it is not often prosecuted vigorously.

The practice is believed to have originated in the U.S. (2005) with Texas knitters trying to find a creative way to use their leftover and unfinished knitting projects, but it has since spread worldwide.

I took this clip at Wicker Park fest this weekend. A small child enjoys octopus above the crowd. Mostly better without sound.
