Make the biggest bubbles ever with this homemade giant bubble recipe. Homemade giant bubbles have been on our to-do list for a while, but we were waiting for optimum weather conditions: humid and overcast, with very little wind.

Well, yesterday was perfect, so I whipped up this Giant Bubble Mix in the morning and we tried it this afternoon. I am thrilled to report that this bubble recipe really does make the biggest bubbles ever! And, if you’re looking for cool backyard science activities to do with the kids, you can put this at the top of your list! Check out the size of these bubbles!

Science activities don’t get much cooler than this. I have to admit, I was not altogether convinced that this bubble recipe would work. How wrong was I? It was FANTASTIC! I got my inspiration for this activity from Design Dazzle, but I’ve tweaked the recipe a little because I didn’t have the ummm… interesting “secret ingredient”. Ready to make some giant bubble mix for yourself? Homemade Giant Bubble Recipe: Voyages dans le temps. 3D garlands-hearts. This one very easy way to make a 3D garland with hearts on it. To make this garland (the one on the pic) we used 2 sheets of colored paper (size A4). Each one of the sheets was sliced into three equal parts by length. Fold each stripe three times. Draw a heart on top (as shown on the pic) and two parallel lines inside. Cut carefully and fold. see also: Artist Paints World Leaders on the Toilet

Just when you thought you’d seen it all, Italian artist Cristina Guggeri comes along and blows it out of the water with her latest series called Il Dovere Quotidiano, or “The Daily Duty”. In this series, Guggeri sets out to ‘humanize’ the world’s leaders by imaging what they might look like on the toilet. And she’s got the interwebs all aflutter. “Disrespectful”, “unnecessary”, “awesome”, “just plain wrong”, “hilarious”, etc, etc. Irrespective of your personal opinion, this controversial series has started a conversation about art. And when it comes down to it, this is what art is all about… Let us know what you think about Guggeri’s work in the COMMENTS section below.

Cartoonists and commentators displayed solidarity with French satirical magazine Charlie Hebdo after the attack on its office in Paris on Wednesday, in which 12 people, including 10 journalists, have been confirmed dead. Dessins hommage à Charlie Hebdo. Il y a des tops qu'on aurait préféré ne jamais faire. Ou ne jamais avoir à faire, et celui là en fait partie.

Ou alors pas dans ces conditions, pas comme ça, pas après ce "truc", cette "chose" qu'on a du mal à nommer. Charlie Hebdo, et avant lui Hara-Kiri, mérite un hommage, c'est certain. Mais il aurait dû se faire avec le sourire et des rires étranglés devant une couverture de plus en se disant "rhooo".

What if the Hulk was a Duke? These are the questions photographer Sacha Goldberger asked himself when he created this playful new series Super Flemish. Some of our favorite pop culture characters like Darth Vader and Snow White got the Flemish treatment as photos of them resembled 16th century paintings. The whole project took Goldberger two years to complete with a year-and-a-half going towards preparation and the rest for retouching and creating prints. Twelve people were involved with the make-up, hair and special effects. Five costume designers made outfits specifically for this occasion. Just how much fun did he have creating these images?

Thankfully, the Internet has taught us not to accept an inferior form of comic artistry, but a more flexible one. Comic strip enthusiasts who want funny but don't care about pretty drawing can have their strips, those who want artistry have theirs, and even those with very specific tastes can find something just right.
