DIY Care Bear costume!

rah — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 06:43:33 +0000

Okay you guys, I am suddenly wanting my own children:

Care Bears were one of my favouritest things when I was growing up (apart from Rainbow Brite, of course. And Muppets).

The instructions for this on Instructables are brilliantly written:

Find a really chill baby, and convince them of how fun it would be to dress up like a bear. Rawr! Surround with other toys, a la that scene from ET. As if you needed to add cuteness.

Excuse me, I must go steal a child so I have an excuse to make one of these…

Here’s a bright idea

rah — Wed, 10 Mar 2010 00:40:27 +0000

This idea wouldn’t work as well with the new light bulbs we have to use now…

US Etsy-er StarRedesign transforms old-school light bulbs into vases and flogs them for US$10.

If you’re the crafty type and have some of these light bulbs left, you can follow the tutorial yourself.

Banana undies!

rah — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 11:01:32 +0000

It’s taken me quite a while to get around to posting this, I keep getting… distracted…

“This range is a world first in underwear – it is made from the weave of the bark from the banana plant, and soft organic cotton, ensuring ultimate comfort, with an eco friendly flavour that will keep you coming back for seconds.” Aussie Bum

Go watch the video on their site, too. It’s okay, we’ll wait…

If these undies are environmentally-thoughtful, we don’t have to feel guilty for… inspecting the merchandise, right?

And they’d make for great ‘is that a banana in your pants…’ jokes too, hehe

Star Wars gets stuffed

rah — Sat, 06 Mar 2010 07:39:05 +0000

If I had an ounce of patience to try crochet, I’d totally be trying these amigurumi:

Created by LucyRavenscar, who has made the patterns available for purchase on Etsy.

Did you know that Amigurumi is the Japanese art of knitting or crocheting small stuffed animals and anthropomorphic creatures? Me neither!

World’s Greatest Shave

Leigh — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 10:12:53 +0000

The World’s Greatest Shave is the Leukemia Foundation’s major fundraiser in Australia each year.

Sorry, I couldn’t bring myself to shave my head. I have had a bad haircut waaaay too short, and that was traumatic enough. I would happily dye it though.

Thankfully there are 1000’s of other brave souls willing to shave for a wonderful cause.

Naomi, my partner in crime over at All for Women (she is the good cop ) has come home form her year in Denmark a little crazy..and has decided to shave her head! She is so brave..her hair is pretty long.

She has set a goal of $500, but has already raised over $1000. So, if you would like to get behind this great cause, and are looking for someone to sponsor. Naomi is your girl >here<

Rah and I have already donated. She has asked for a few hat related That’s Noice posts to get her through the baldness *hehe*

Would you strip to your undies for some free magazines?

rah — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 07:02:14 +0000

On Monday, Magnation hosted its first “Undies Monday” for the month of March.

IF YOU TURN UP WEARING ONLY YOUR UNDERTHINGS THEY’LL GIVE YOU $50 TO SPEND IN-STORE

Apparently the promotion was way. too. popular. this week and they’ve upped the ante with some extra rules to play by for the remaining Mondays in March.

I love me some magazines, but don’t think I’m willing to strip down to my unmentionables for it

Would you???

Noice’n up your wheelie bin

rah — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 00:52:33 +0000

I think I’d be the laughing stock of my neighbourhood if I popped one of these on my wheelie bin:

…but if I *was* going to, I reckon I’d choose one of these!

Did you know these things even existed? I feel like I’m behind the 8-ball on this one.

These ones are from Wheelie Designs, but there are also wrap-around floral designs available from Wheelie Bin Skins and even Peter’s of Kensington sells them!

Who woulda thunk it?

Ruddsicle anyone?

I am quite certain I could not bring myself to lick Krudd, no matter how good he tasted. Nor Damn Edna or Ned Kelley for that matter. But I love this concept.

Auspops is a design concept by Aussie Lucy Hargrave. The brief was to develop an Australian souvenir that could be sold to international visitors in a gift shop. “To give the product some Aussie charm and humour, I laser etched famous celebrity portraits into ice block holders, and designed clean, transparent packaging to give the piece an upmarket, collectible, design gift aesthetic. A booklet featuring information on the celebrities is attached so tourists can understand who they are and why they have been embodied into frozen icy treats.” she says.
