Some supremely awesome and talented woman named Natasha MADE these sugar guys who perch on the edge of your cup- until you push them in. Brilliant. When will these be available for sale? Someone DEFINITELY needs to produce them on a larger scale.

These cubes of finger jello from I’ve Gotta Little Space To Fill are so beautiful and mesmerizing! Like food + art + the 50s all rolled (squared?) into one discrete item.

My thoughts: 1) It would make a cool t-shirt pattern. 2) How do you make white jello? 3) mmmmmm delicious jello.

You can get the recipe and see more pictures at I’ve Gotta Little Space To Fill.
