Queer Eye for the Lumberjack Guy

best-made-axes

I don’t blame you for loving your job of sawing down trees (deforestation is so hot right now), but aren’t you starting to feel a little embarrassed about your lack of fabulousness? Everyone is staring at you, you can feel their eyes burning in the back of your skull. You know they talk about your lack of lumber-style when your not listening.

Well listen up, girl, because these colorfully designed axes from Best Made Co. can add that bit of woodman-chic spice back into your wood chucking. The 3.5 fine wood axes are lovingly handcrafted, making you look stylish as you play with your wood.

Credit Card Rainbow Collage: Debt is Beautiful

creditrainbow1

Credit cards don’t mean much these days. For awhile they were so easy to get and use, despite your financial situation, that they have become a second currency, albeit a worthless one. Made using thousands of credit cards, freecards, discount carts and gift cards, the Credit Card Rainbow displays the varied colors of debt, in all of its majesty.

Commissioned by Graphic Design Museum in Breda, the Netherlands, the rainbow will be on display until September 2009. So, this is how worthless our credit system has become. But hey, at least it’s pretty! Close-ups after the jump.

Bright Bike Benedict

fluoro-bikes

Benedict Radcliffe is an artist with a unique situation. He’s been creating beautiful fixed gear bikes over in London and the results are candy-like. Neon pink, orange, green and yellow adorn every angle of the bike, creating a look that even Naughty by Nature could appreciate. Too bad Benedict’s phone is ringing off the hook. The 1990s keep calling him; it wants the bike back.
