Via TRIANGULATION. 70 Cutie Baby Animals Bring You a Good Mood. Cuteness is usually characterized by some combination of infant-like physical traits, especially small body size with a disproportionately large head, large eyes, and round and softer body features. Infantile personality traits, such as playfulness, fragility, helplessness, curiosity, innocence, affectionate behavior, and a need to be nurtured are also generally considered cute.

Using knives, tweezers and surgical tools, Brian Dettmer carves one page at a time. Nothing inside the out-of-date encyclopedias, medical journals, illustration books, or dictionaries is relocated or implanted, only removed. Dettmer manipulates the pages and spines to form the shape of his sculptures. He also folds, bends, rolls, and stacks multiple books to create completely original sculptural forms. "My work is a collaboration with the existing material and its past creators and the completed pieces expose new relationships of the book’s internal elements exactly where they have been since their original conception," he says.
"The richness and depth of the book is universally respected yet often undiscovered as the monopoly of the form and relevance of the information fades over time. The book’s intended function has decreased and the form remains linear in a non-linear world. Dettmer is originally from Chicago, where he studied at Columbia College. Brian Dettmer's website.

A couple of months ago The Lady and I came to the realization that we had painted the walls and woodwork in every room in our home except for the master bedroom. Our house was built in the 1970's and this means beige and brown decor. Thus, our bedroom was just about the most depressing of any of the rooms in our home. We set about to remedy this post haste! We began by painting the walls a pleasant sage green and changing the woodwork from a dark brown stained pine to a contrasting French Cream.
When it came time to change out the light switch plates, I thought I'd make a few in the Steampunk style. More after the cut . . . Step one was to gather material, so I dumped out my box of small brass bits and fished through them for some likely candidates. The chosen bits I intended to solder on to solid brass lightswitch cover plates. The brass lightswitch covers came from Home Depot. I tried a couple of different methods of soldering. I also tried using a solder paste sold at autoparts stores.
