Friday Favourites







Have you figured it out yet?? Of course you have, you're so clever, and you're right they are recycled pop bottles. Gives a whole new meaning to "pop" art doesn't it. Designer Garth Britzman of Lincoln, Nebraska created this stunning canopy by pouring small amounts of coloured liquid into empty clear plastic bottles and then strung them together, creating a perfect shaded canopy for parked cars. Although, we think this idea would be perfect to have picnics or dinner parties under or even just to lay back, relax and gaze up at the beautiful shapes and summery colours. It seems like a simple enough little project to try out on your own....hmmm I think we just found some inspiration for our next window display- let the pop drinking begin (it's ok to drink it if it's for an art project right??) 

We hope you all have a lovely weekend- try not to drink too much pop---unless of course your saving the bottles!

If your in the area this weekend, make sure to check out the Fine Art and Craft Festival at the Burlington Art Centre (more info here) - and while you're out stop be the shop to see some other great fine art and handmade products!!
