This one is for my wonderful tech geek friends. They are a shortbread incarnation of traditional message hearts.
Found on Craftzine.

The New York Times recently featured a slideshow of new underwater discoveries. These “Sea Squirts” resemble a little garden of human hearts.
Can’t you picture them beating?
These creatures are Chordates, and are surprisingly close to countless other species:
17,000 kinds of fish; 70 or so species of dolphins, whales, seals, sea lions and otters; some 10 kinds of sea turtles; and about 80 kinds of sea snakes.
The slideshow starts here if you want to see the rest.

Valentine’s Day is my least favorite holiday. I believe that Love is the most essential energy in life, but am vehemently opposed to the commodification of this beautiful force. Capitalism has a way of bastardizing life’s magnificent truths.
That being said…I’m a die-hard romantic and gladly embrace an excuse to celebrate Love in imaginative, crafty ways.
I’m forever trying to make my heart, mind and ideals gel for an “appropriate” Valentine’s Day expression.
(image from here)This week I’m sharing unconventional, kitschy, macabre and otherwise quirky bits that I feel are (even loosely) related to the holiday. I see Love in the strange and unusual…so join me, won’t you?
And please submit your own crazy love ideas, if you’ve got ’em!
