T-Shirts are All the Rage



Every one's got t shirt ideas. I know you do. Seems nowadays everyone has been tempted by the easy start-up, low-cost, potentially lucrative business at one point or another. But if you don't have the time and resources to go big business, you can still channel your creative energy into garment form- and help out the Collingwood Art Center at the same time.

Kelly is calling for artists to make t shirts that will be sold during the Old West End Festival, with 25% of the sales going to the Collingwood Art Center. Minimum is twenty shirts, and the wearables should be somewhat OWE themed. Who knows where this could lead you.

Speaking of tees, the above photo comes to us from down under. Toboggan's been diggin' the shirts over at Young Lovers. Stop by and check them out.

Pinebox Art



Stumbled across these today. Possibly the ugliest things I've ever seen. A company out of Australia makes 'LifeArt Coffins'. They look pretty ridiculous, but if someone wants to be buried in a coffin that resembles one of those inspirational posters you see hanging in corporate offices, who am I to argue.

They are touted as being environmentally safe- which is always a plus, and the company seems to be embracing the DIY aesthetic by offering a blank coffin that can be decorated by you (before you die) or friends and family members.
