Robots made from junk…. Junkbots!

Wednesday, April 7th, 2010

I usually hate garbage art… pretty much because everything I usually see looks like garbage glued together randomly. However, this artist ultrajunk, makes his robots look like robots from that “time period”. Also, it doesn’t look like garbage anymore, it really looks like art.  Here are some of the pieces from ultrajunk’s Flickrstream that I thought were really impressive:

Macbook Vinyl Decals

Monday, April 5th, 2010

It’s pretty simple to pimp out your Macbook.  One quick way to do it is to add a vinyl decal to the top of the outside.  These vinyl stickers are easy to put on and don’t really do any damage to the metal.  The decal on my Macbook is the ‘Snow White Revenge’ decal by Crafty Gal on Etsy.  I’ve gone ahead and found the ones that I love the most!  Check ‘em out!
