Blood Lamp

Mike Thomspon created this lamp that uses blood to create light. The lamp contains luminol, a chemical that reacts with the iron in blood and creates a bright blue glow. To use the lamp you must first break the glass, then you must cut yourself on the glass, and finally you let your blood drip into the activating solution and it lights up.

His reason for creating this blood lamp was to get people to rethink how they use energy.

“It kind of triggered this thought in my mind, that if energy somehow came at a cost to us, then maybe it would make us think differently about the way we use it.”

Imagine how you might feel if your wildest and most wonderful fantasies were brought to life. That’s probably how a child would feel if their drawings of strange and wondrous characters were turned into real-life plush toys, which is exactly what Budsies does.

Budsies takes children’s drawings and reinterprets them as 16-inch-tall hypoallergenic plush toys – but they’ll take playful adults’ drawings, too.

NO DON’T GIVE THIS TO TUMBLR USERS THIS IS A GRAVE MISTAKE

CAN PEOPLE OF ALL AGES DO THIS

BECAUSE IMAGINE IF AN ARTIST WANTED A PLUSH OF THEIR OC
