blogwatch: where we’ve been clicking this week
NPR Pictureshow featured the work of Dutch artists We Make Carpets, temporary “rugs” made from unconventional materials such as pasta, mustard seeds, and pine cones. Ephemeral, fun, and beautiful — LOVE.
We’ve eaten some strangely delicious things in our day, but we can’t say we’d be totally willing to throw down $12/plate for broccoli gratin topped with cheetos. At the Kitchn.
Speaking of strangely delicious, why not treat your sweet to one of these oozing, anatomically correct heart cakes we spotted over at Boing Boing.
Renovating done right at Decor8. Particularly loving the tiny city kitchen with the serious stove/ hood and the mini smeg fridge.
Over at Treehugger we spied this super-groovy & green NYC apartment with salvaged subway doors, deli counter floors, and a ground floor jacuzzi for sale. Um, where do we sign up?
Casa Sugar has a great DIY to rehab a boring medicine cabinet into a fab modern number.
Man caves ’round the world are aching with desire: the fridgecouch. A franken-design hybrid of car seat, couch and fridge that really works. At Thrillst via Nick The Ring.

I was super excited about the fridgecouch. When I saw the pictures, I couldn’t figure out where the fridge was, until I realized that it was a couch made out of a fridge, not a couch with a mini fridge attached to it. The latter would have been so much cooler! (no pun intended)
