The BIRDS!

We are loving wallpaper lately (but not taking it down, damn eggplant border in my dining room still haunts me to this day). This wallpaper brought to us by Trove is great because it combines the graphic birds we love and a feeling of the great outdoors: inside!

Moss and Cake!

British sculptor Marc Quinn is ready to unveil his $2.8 million, 110-pound solid gold statue of the supermodel, hyped as the largest such creation built since ancient Egypt.

The British Museum gets it we guess and have only released one picture so far:


Quinn also created a painted bronze statue of Moss titled "sphinx" where she appeared in a yoga pose.

So, in honor of the original sphinxes we bring you this fantastic blog about cake disasters:

So, remember kids: always enjoy art and eat cake!
