Great designs can be recognized at a first glance and this next one is pure genius. We are talking about this amazing wind turbine which looks just like a tree, integrating perfectly into the surroundings. The wind turbine generates energy in an eco-friendly way, using a natural resource and has a pleasant aspect in contrast with other classical turbines. The technology was developed by the Fren

I don’t know what it is about meat, but for some reason when you grill it, it tastes like magic. Even vegetables like mushrooms, eggplant, and okra taste phenomenal when they’ve been kissed by a little bit of smoke. And what can make barbecuing outside on a gorgeous summer day even better? Being able to extend your time with Mother Nature by prepping outdoors as well. Wouldn’t it be nice

Ready to be wowed? Because this is just astonishing! Check out this awesome routine from the finals of the 2010 Acrobatic Gymnastics World Championships in Wrocław, Poland. These three young, Ukrainian women placed third after Russia and Great Britain. I didn’t know this type of routine was humanly possible, as I’ve never seen gymnasts display such incredible flexibility and strength. In

One of the other great things about building blocks in this manner is the binding is part of the block. The key is to make sure all of your backing is the same fabric if you want the binding to be the same. I guess you could use different colored backing to give each block a different colored binding.

This magically whimsical tiny home on wheels was built by Jim Wilkins of Tiny Green Cabins. It’s 176 square feet, 22′ long by 8′ wide, and weighs about 13,500 lbs. Because Nicki Jo Davis’ ne

These photos bring a whole new appreciation for the night sky as a photographer manages to capture the colour and movement of the stars. A range of colours - including yellows, blues, oranges, pinks and turquoises - can all be seen illuminating the sky in locations around the world.

Jenny Doan shows how to make a the fast and easy Double Slice Quilt using Layer Cakes.

They eat six meals a day, they give away presents on their birthday rather than receiving them, and they live underground because they know it’s the place to be. There’s so much cool stuff hiding beneath the earth, like buried treasure, mysterious bunkers, and every now and again, a really unique place to store your wine. You ca

I’ve tried so many different solutions to keep my cookware looking its best over the years, but at some point, I just had to give up. Honestly, who has the time and
