You Grow Girl™ – » Cheap n’ Easy Container Idea – Strawberries and Violas

What to do with a lone strawberry plant leftover from another soon-to-be-revealed project, a small flat of red violas ($3.50 for 16 plants!), and an old coffee canister that was thrifted as part of a 70s era fake woodgrain 4 part kitchen canister set?

Put them together!

Angelina Jolie’s documentary – info at IMDB: A Place in Time (2007)

Found at ecorazzi:

She sent celebrities like Ryan Gosling, Anne Hathaway, Jude Law, Wyclef Jean, and Sean Astin to film the same 3 minutes across more than 25 countries, focusing on animals and people. And instead of inviting the press & glitterati to her premiere, she invited students.

This book will surely be inspirational in the crafty department (and this crafty woman who blogged it is freakishly inspirational with the sewing):

Cafe 1001

Posted by acmelearning on May 17, 2007

This space sounds amazing:

Machine Shop » East London’s Well-kept Secret: Cafe 1001 + Short & Sweet

Cafe 1001 is a dimly-lit lounge with two spacious rooms, couches, great food (including an outside grill with great burgers), eclectic music and events. Odd street-art-style drawings cover the walls along with a strange poem or two. Weekday nights are not too crowded, weekends get busy.

On Monday nights, this all gets even better. In the back room, there is a screening of an eclectic set of short films. Really eclectic, Hype Machine-eclectic. It’s called Short & Sweet. Student films, famous shorts, music videos, strange animated films, you name it. They thrill you, make you think, wonder and feel, all the while you are on comfortable couches, with candles and drinks. Offbeat mix of music follows. Oh yeah, and it’s free.
