It's sad that some countries are in such poor condition. But meanwhile the governments aren't doing their jobs, and the communities are in chaos, you're well advised to NOT ever visit these places if you want to stay well and alive!

32 year old money lender, Datta Phuge from Pimpri-Chinchwad has a little bit of an obsession with gold. He commissioned a team a 15 goldsmiths to create a solid gold shirt, in the hopes of attracting a female. The goldsmiths spent 16 hours a day for two weeks creating and weaving the gold threads. Maybe he just needs to shave?

Only a few miles away from where Thomas Frye first developed the composition for bone china in 1748, a new tribute to the porcelain material is on display at Hackney's Wilton Way Cafe. The East London coffee shop & gallery is currently displaying a collection of bone china "diamond" rings, crafted by local designer Moko Sellars. The designer began creating jewelry only last year as a excercise in considered design. Would you wear these or just use as home decor?

Chris Platt 's work is "edgy" in the most literal sense, pushing the boundary between jewelry and sculpture. With a collection of jagged, industrial pieces forged from metal and stone, Platt is introducing a new energy into the jewelry market. Perfect for your hipster girlfriends who just can't get enough of those "where'd you get that?" pieces. 

This Garnier Fructis campaign is out of this world! I mean, hey, if I had a beard I'd make sure to wash it with some seriously fancy shampoo too! 

But to most of our relief, these are only illusions! These men don't actually sport such lovely facial hair, but rather their blessed ladies with manes like you only see on TV. 

"All it cost me were pens and time," says Shantell Martin of her Brooklyn home and studio. From the baseboards to the ceiling, the space is inhabited with a hand-drawn mural by Martin herself. The best part is that his Brooklyn home and studio is actually rented! Martin says that her landlords are supportive of her scribbling habit, as long as it is limited to the top floor. And it's not just the walls -- vases, shirts, shoes, toys, and more are covered in the intricate designs. 

When my little brother and I were kids, we used to love Jurrasic Park. Once every six months, if we were lucky, we'd get to go to a museum with dinosaur bones and other awesome creatures. Little Mikey could not resist picking up shells and rocks from the beach, fossils from the forrest, or even fish bones from restaurants. I used to find them all over my clothes! If only we had had the Discovery Box...

The "Discovery Box," is a neat little box made for collecting scientific and natural items. This furniture-quality product is finished with a smooth varnish to protect your kid from splinters and injuries. At 29" wide x 10.5" tall x 11.5" deep, this awesome little collectors box will bring out the little archeologist in any tyke! :) 

Artist Danny Quirk is most known for his illustrations in scientific journals. The eccentric artist has now ventured into another artistic platform -- people. Using sharpie markers and acrylic latex, Quirk created some horrific inside looks directly onto people's skin. He plans to make these images into a 15-20 page book series. Want more gross?
