Dusty nights

Dust house

Chris and I are getting ready to move.. and doing a lot of (much needed) cleaning. I woke up today, did some packing, and decided to move some furniture in the bedroom. Not a very exciting Monday – until – I found 20 dollars hidden in a “little” pile of dust. Woooo!

And I realised suddenly: my Mum was wrong! Dust is fantastic! Artist Maria Adelaida Lopez makes cute little houses from vacuum cleaner lint that you can take a peak at here.

American artist Scott Wade hangs on to his dust and grime, too. He “paints” mini works of Scott Wadeart in the dust that piles up on his car. Take a look-see.

Sure, Martha would not approve. If you’re still feeling guilty, she might have some good tips for your bedroom.

Now, I’m off to the store to spend that 20 dollars on candy and allergy pills.

    How genius is it that Amy Sedaris named her bunny Dusty?!
