Vinyimals

Even if you don’t spin the stuff, vinyl could easily have a special place in your home — especially when it’s cut up into amazing little pieces. UK designer Cat Davison creates art out of 100% recycled vintage records under the banner ‘heat the beat.’ Hot indeed.

These little piggies aren’t coin depositories, so don’t try sliding any coins into their backsides… Instead, plug your jack into its back! For $49, this ceramic Pig Speaker will play your tunes through its adorable bell.

Rodent Rockers

This isn’t an ad for a hamster pet store (wouldn’t you want one of these?), but a really clever musical number for a bottled water company. Meet the Clever Hamsters…

Funky Monkey

We here at A.D.D go pretty ape for anything monkey, and this picture definitely takes the banana. This tiny chimp’s photo is part of a collection called Life on White, and one of 9,862 images of 482 different species.

Have you seen anything this awesome today?

Too Cute Friday

I saw this YouTube video on The Colbert Report last week, and have watched it every day since (which I’m totally not embarrassed to admit). This is the video that will start of your weekend right. Enjoy the repetitive views…

And don’t worry, this little French Bulldog’s story has a happy ending…

Animals

I just can’t seem to get this song out of my head. I’d heard numerous remixes of Miike Snow’s Animal before I listened to the real deal, and I think it’s much better untouched. We at A.D.D love animals and everything that celebrates furry creatures, and we also love Miike’s music video… Check out the horse and antlered rabbit cameos!

Handy Candy

A.D.D has its own vinyl-loving pet mascot, but there are times when a gummy animal would outweigh a furry animal. YaYa Chou has taken two of my favorite things – four-legged creatures and candy – and made some pretty delicious art. This is what Chou has to say about the works: “Elements from nature, animal and plant images often appear in my work, because they create an invisible tension or distance from our modern lifestyles.” The tension that I experience in viewing these sculptures? Wanting to enjoy the art while wanting to enjoy the sweet sweet calories.

Happy Hands

We here at A.D.D are kids at heart. So when I saw these hand tattoos on Dezeen, how could I not share them? I mean, I kind of (really) want several for myself. I don’t know how they would look on adult hands, but they’re weird and cute nonetheless. You could probably dress a zebra hand tat up or down, depending on your accessories, eh?

Spanish designer Héctor Serrano has designed an awesome collection of temporary tattoos to look like animals and monsters. Each set contains 8 designs that are applied like any other temp tattoo.

Silly “Skills”

Who doesn’t love a go at the turntables? This cat may chase anything that moves, but it’s got a real connection with vinyl. Dogs may dance, but cats can spin…

Sexy Scoop?

For the pampered pooch who has it all, you can always treat yourself to something that makes pooch pampering that much easier. I don’t know about you, but my chipped mug that scoops out organic dog food is so not sexy. But the Petfood Scoop Fastener designed by Bradford Waugh is rather sleek. Can’t find a price for this modern scooper/bag fastener, so any direction is appreciated! Happy crappy scooping til then.
