DIY Shoe Storage

DIY flip-flop holder                                                                                                                   I found this idea very creative because someone used an ordinary wire hanger that was generally intended for clothes as a great way to store shoes.  It takes an object designed for one particular use and expands the options of possible uses.  These ones in particular are also personalized and made fashionable by adding a patterned paper to add a little spice to the over all look.

I thought this was really funny. The problem is that wearing heels is painful for some of us gals, so somebody came up with a creative way to wear heels without the pain of actually wearing them! What a genius idea!

Recycled Hearts

This shows a great way to put used, old, or broken crayons to good use. This is particularly interesting to me because it shows a good way of recycling something that most people and kids just throw away. Most people and kids prefer sharp crayons that are not broken in half. Once they are broken or dull they are just placed in a ziploc bag and rarely used. Most people also buy a new box for their kids every school year. These little crayon hearts also make for a perfect gift. You could also make different patters, or stick to specific color schemes. There are also different silicone pan shapes, other than hearts.

The people to mouse pointer!

http://www.pointerpointer.com/

This website is actually pretty interesting and kind of cool because what it does is locates where your mouse pointer is on the screen and it will produce a picture of someone or a few people that are pointing that your mouse pointer. It is actually a very interesting and creative concept because it seems that it would take a lot of pictures and creative programming in order to produce that effect. I also think it was cool how even if you move your mouse just a little bit it will spit out a different picture that points to the mouse pointer location. 

Map of the world made from coins!

Using different currencies from all over the world, the person who made this created a map of the world. I thought it was super clever and a great way to embrace the uniqueness of each country while uniting all of them in the same picture. Very cool!

Key Lamp Shade

Lamp shade with old keys.  LOVE!
I really like how keys were used to make this lamp shade; this idea is easy to personalize to your own personality depending on what type of keys that one likes to collect.  If I were to do something like this, I would use skeleton keys because I love the way they look.  I think that a lamp shade using skeleton keys would look very classy and have a vintage vibe to it; however I still really like this key lamp shade as well.

Bouquet of Flowers made out of fruit

They have created a beautiful bouquet of flowers out of fruit I'm guessing they used pineapple for the flower, melon for the middle part and grapes just to add more color or as decoration. This is creative because its not something usually seen and not only can it serve as a decoration but it can be edible which is the best part :)
