Bitter Chocolatier or Angry Ex Chocolate Packaging


This is the most amazing packaging I have ever seen.
Really.
No, seriously.

The Dieline sums it up "Poking fun at himself, The Bitter Chocolatier tells his tales of misfortune throughout his life through the different flavours"

Get it? Cause he's BITTER! and needs Chocolate to get through it! (that last bit might be my interpretation).

Too bad this is student work, cause I would like one of each.... maybe personalized....

Amelie Styled Wedding!



Amélie, a whimsical movie directed by the hugely talented Jean-Pierre Jeunet, is all about finding true love in the magical land of Paris! So how wonderfully clever to design a Amélie inspired wedding!

Kudos as this is probably as close to living IN Amélie as you can get!

It's got to be Aliens!



A couple nights ago, there was this crazy cloud hanging over Austin. The BF and I thought it totally had to be an alien invasion and we tried to get some pictures. Unfortunately our pics didn't come out so well, but luckily hundreds of other Austinites had the same idea and someone compiled them all in the same place on the internets. It's like hive-mind or something. Check out other pics and experience the alien invasion second hand here.

After


How many of you out there have a kitchen knife magnet in their homes? I know I do. And you know, I never realized how ugly it is (mine is way uglier than the above pic since it's made of black plastic....someone opted for the cheapo magnet) until I saw this beautiful creation on Etsy. zomg!

This amazing creation is by BurgeOnWood. Check out his other incredible stuff here. Via
