If you are looking for a unique decoration piece or quirky vase that will bring a smile to your face every time you look at it, then make sure to check out the works by ceramic artist Helen Burgess.

In her own words, Burgess creates “handmade ceramic silliness.” Her ceramic figurines and vessels are everything but ordinary. They usually feature animals with expressive faces, unexpected gestures, and disproportional body parts. Each looks like it has its own personality, and they are absolutely charming.

According to Burgess, she has an “obsession for animals, usually the weirder and more obscure.” This made them a natural subject when she started doing ceramics as a hobby in 2010.

Despite being a self-taught artist, she quickly mastered the practice and found her unique style. Eventually, her creations found an audience, and she decided to start a business called “nosey mungo” to give people the opportunity to own them.

Nowadays, every new collection Burgess creates is quickly sold out, but fans of her work don’t need to worry about missing out on her pieces.           

“Being forever curious about nature will always give me new creative inspiration,” Burgess shares on her website.

Graphic designer and illustrator Florent Chamiot-Poncet, also known as Wood Campers, recently presented an interesting project in which he designed playful traffic signs that serve as public art and also aim to improve traffic safety.

Chamiot-Poncet created 60 colorful designs for the project. They depict various quirky characters with eye-catching features like extraordinary mustaches, wacky hairstyles, and peculiar expressions, and they come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. Some of them also feature messages that let drivers know they should slow down.

For the project, Chamiot-Poncet teamed up with creatives from Ilta Studio and the French city of Rennes, where the traffic signs were installed. Chamiot-Poncet made the designs, which were then printed, cut, and plastered on the old traffic signs provided by the city. 

The traffic signs were installed in La Courrouze district, known for being a dangerous place for pedestrian due to drivers who often disregard the speed limit. With the project, Chamiot-Poncet and rest of the participants hope to “alert passersby and motorists in an offbeat manner in an area where pedestrians feel unsafe.”

It is unclear how long this installation will remain on display, but if you have a chance, make sure to check it out.

A mini Australian Sheppard named Kaido recently became an internet sensation thanks to his habit of helping clear the way for emergency vehicles by matching their sirens with adorable “awoo” sounds.

Kaido and his human Matt “Matty” Fernandez frequently take bike rides across their native New York City. While riding the bike, they occasionally encounter ambulances, fire trucks, and police vehicles trying to navigate congested streets.

Once Kaido, who is usually nestled in a bike chair or a backpack on Matty’s back, hears the sirens, he immediately starts howling. Matty refers to this type of sound as “awoo,” which lets others know that they should pay attention and let the emergency vehicles pass.

Matty has been sharing the videos of Kaido’s “awoos” on TikTok, and judging by the comments, the internet users love it.

“He is putting his whole heart and soul in it. Look at his head going so far back,” one TikToker commented.

“The little paw on your shoulder, the full head tilt back for the howl, hair blowing in the wind, and stranger joining in! This video is happiness,” another added.

Continue scrolling to check out more of Kaido’s “awoos.”

Having a calculator app on our smartphone always comes in handy. We can use it for complex calculations or for times when we just want to double-check that “7 x 8” equals 56. But did you know that the calculator app saves a history of all of your previous calculations?

As it turns out, a lot of TikTok users didn’t know this and some of them are relieved that this history can be deleted due to their “embarrassing” calculations. Others decided to share it with the rest of the world.

One of them is TikTok user @jeffersonjohn14, who decided to share their realization with the rest of the world in a video that has since gone viral.

“Yall please remember to clear your CALCULATOR history every once in a while..my bf just saw mine and would have rather him gone thru my internet history,” @jeffersonjohn14 wrote in the video while also disclosing that her embarrassing calculation was “3+8??????.”

Many TikTok users were oblivious and thanked @jeffersonjohn14 for giving them a heads-up.

“Didn’t know this was a thing, thanks for the heads up girlie!!!,” @jesslovesyoumore wrote in the comments.

“Calculator app has a history?” @lyamichellee added.

Some TikTokers, on the other hand, used the opportunity to share their own “embarrassing” calculations.

“1×10.. it was a difficult day!” @shakespeareandcom1623 commented.

“no bc why do I have 30+8,” @alikidkat shared.

“Nah why I got 35-1 in mine,” @414n.uzi added.

It’s impossible to resist the call of the ocean when you live on the East Coast, and no one knows this better than Logan Rash. He’s a fossil collector behind East Coast Fossils, who specializes in hunting for shark teeth and using his platform to advocate for shark and ocean conservation.

Rash grew up in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, and his love for nature knows no bounds. He spent his childhood years fascinated by the ocean and answered the call of the sea when he was just 19 years old. This was when he started collecting prehistoric shark teeth along the East Coast, unaware that this teenage hobby would shape the rest of his life.

Rash’s collection kept growing as the years went by, and he’s now sharing his findings with 80,000 followers on his Instagram page East Coast Fossils. He’s no longer based in the Outer Banks, but that’s not stopping him from collecting fossils since his home state of Virginia also offers a long Atlantic coastline.

In addition to being a fossil collector, Rash is also an advocate for shark and ocean conservation. He co-wrote two books inspired by his years of expertise collecting shark teeth, including a beachcombing guide for fossil collectors titled My Shark Tooth Guide and a children’s book Why We Need Sharks, which explores the awe-inspiring world of sharks and sheds light on their vital role in the ecosystem.

Blake Gore discovered his artistic talent during his late 30s, and decided to fully embrace the saying “good things come in small packages.” His miniature paintings are as tiny as they come, but that’s not stopping him from creating extraordinary worlds inside his itsy-bitsy frames.

Gore spent years working as a mental health therapist, career coach, and university instructor before discovering his passion for art. He was in his late 30s when he stumbled upon a social media challenge to share a 1”x1” sketch every day for a month, and he decided to keep going even after the challenge was over.

“Often drawing inside only an inch or two, I’m inspired by the challenge to create more while consuming less. My miniature art demonstrates how constraints can enhance creativity while encouraging a more sustainable experience for the earth, the artist, and art lovers alike,” he told Strathmore Artist Papers.

Gore embraced the beauty of lifelong learning, honing his skills at the breakfast table, crafting his tiny drawings with nothing but 0.15mm pen nib and tiny canvases. Gore’s versatility is as impressive as his attention to detail, and we’ve seen him celebrate the beauty of nature through his body of work, while also putting a miniature twist on some of his favorite paintings.

Dopamine décor experienced a true boom in recent years, and Annika Hinds welcomed it into her home with open arms. She became a true social media sensation thanks to her thrifty DIY videos, and she’ll inspire you to invite joyful vibes and vibrant colors into your home.

Hinds’ love for colorful interior design has been a part of her life long before she built an impressive following on TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. She grew up in a house where bold and vibrant colors were celebrated, and they always gave her a nostalgic feel because they reminded her of her childhood.

Hind wanted to fill her home with vibrant decorations because she believes they can greatly impact our mood. She’s a huge believer anyone can fill their home with bold colors if they want to because she did so while living in small and rented apartments.

“As a renter, I haven’t always had the freedom to paint my space and if you’re in the same boat that doesn’t mean you can’t still incorporate color. In fact, you can think of a neutral blank wall as a canvas, nothing but opportunity there! You can add some bold art, plants, books, and a painted dresser,” she told Tinted.

Hinds’ social media pages are a perfect reminder you don’t need a fortune to build home of your dreams. She found many of her favorite decorations and furniture pieces at thrift stores and used her DIY skills to put a fun twist on them.
