Hello Everyone. After yesterday’s Wearable Newspaper post, I came across this series called Wearable Food, created by artist Yeonju Sung. The series includes these pieces made from bubblegum, tomatoes, eggplant and cabbage. Stunning, no?

Hello Everyone. There’s nothing like creative upcycling to give your week a little burst of inspiration. Artist Yuliya Kyrpo created a beautiful bustier dress with flowing peacock train – from 1,000 paper cranes – all of which were folded by hand from old Metro newspapers. Wow! This lovely gown is on display at London’s Science Museum.
Wouldn’t wearing this to your New Year’s Eve party make a statement?
You would definitely want to make sure that there wasn’t rain in the forecast.
Would you wear clothing made from upcycled materials?
Karen Walrond of Chookooloonks just published her first book, The Beauty of Different
and it is fantastic! Every page is full of beautiful photos and heartful words and essays. Wouldn’t receiving this fabulous volume make a lovely holiday gift? 
If you live in a colder climate, you may love the idea of living in a house wrapped in a greenhouse. This home in Sweden built by Swedish architect Bengt Warne, it allows the owners to cultivate their own fresh food – while cutting their electricity needs in half. How fantastic is that?
