Transparent capsule hotels hang 400ft above Peru's Sacred Valley

Want to push your adrenaline as high as it will go during your next vacation?

For about $300 per person, the Natura Vive Skylodge in Peru's Sacred Valley offers thrill-seekers the chance to sleep within a completely transparent pod wedged high on a mountainside. The 192 square feet suites are constructed from aerospace aluminum and weather-resistant polycarbonate, and each capsule has a private bathroom separated from the bedroom, complete with sink and bathroom with curtains for privacy.

The package includes breakfast, gourmet dinner with wine, transportation from Cusco and professional bilingual guides. But before they even get to their hotel rooms, daredevils must climb a 400-foot cliff face. Travelers will be provided with mountain climbing equipment such as climbing harness, helmet, gloves, etc.

Irene Saputra's Colorful Stitched Pieces

Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!

Check out this insane music box powered by 2,000 marbles

The brainchild of Swedish musician Martin Molin, the Wintergartan Marble Machine , is a bizarre music box that allows the user to play tunes using a hand crank and 2,000 steel marbles. The Rube Goldberg'esque contraption features a vibraphone, bass, drums, cymbals and other instruments that play a score programmed into a 32 bar loop comprised of LEGO Technic parts. It's mesmerizing, and you can watch how they built it over here . [h/t: MailOnline ]

The Adorable Sculptures of Yen Yen Lo

These images are from a series of wall sculptures created by Yen Yen Lo . Here you can see her intricately textured ceramic pieces, looking downright adorable. Yen Yen Lo's eye for the unique and whimsical is delightful. Apparently they are not intended for kids under 16. Fifteen-year-olds cannot be trusted with fragile stuff. Get them a Funko Pop instead.
