Matthew Albanese's incredible landscape art made from household objects These stunning landscape images should belong in National Geographic magazine but they are actually models made using household items. Artist Matthew Albanese spends hours on his sculptures â whose materials include tile grouting, cinnamon and steel wool â and then brings them to life using clever photography. Some of his designs are less than 1m (3ft) long but the remarkable effect is gained by the angle of the camera. Mr Albanese, 26, began making his Blue Peter-style models two years ago and has already sold seven of his works for more than £600 each. He was bored of his job as a visual merchandiser and needed an outlet. âOne day I knocked over a tub of paprika and as I was cleaning up the mess I began to daydream,â he said. âI thought it was a great shade of red and reminded me of Mars, an exotic place I could only dream of seeing. âSo I figured I would bring Mars to me.

Perfect Pandas » Blog Archive » Panda Bread Ok, so I’ve seen a lot of amazingly cute panda things, but this literally made me giddy when I saw it. I’ve never seen anything like it and I really want to try out the recipe. The original recipe is from an Asian website called Taro Taro (which features a photo gallery of user submitted panda bread!), luckily for those of us who can’t read the site, wlteef.blogspot.com was kind enough to post a translation.
