Helene Meldahl combines mirror selfies with her love of art

A few days ago my good friend Kim alerted me to this adorable artist on Instagram. I must've been living under a rock because I wasn't aware of her work. Well, better late than never.

Most girls are addicted to taking selfies, and Helene Meldahl is no exception. However, the 27-year-old Norwegian artist has taken the game to a whole new level. Her self-portraits are fresh, quirky, creative and they remind us all to have a little fun.

For more than two years, Helene (aka @mirrorsme) has been filling her IG account with unique mirror doodles. Using chalk, markers, and a little imagination, she creates delightful environments before snapping away. Initially drawing on mirrors with her lipstick to leave cute messages for her roommate, the drawings evolved from small to elaborate illustrations. Check out some of her clever selfies below.

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.

French supermarket promotes 'ugly' fruits and vegetables to reduce food waste

When was the last time you bought a weird-shaped fruit or veggie? A disfigured eggplant, a gnarled carrot, a hideous orange, or a deformed apple? You probably have a hard time remembering because growers usually throw out any misshapen produce, since grocery stores only want flawless (or almost flawless) crops. If there are lumps, bruises, or other deformities, retailers are likely to reject them. To raise awareness against food waste, Marcel Paris introduced a brilliant ad campaign called the Inglorious Fruits and Vegetables . The agency created these posters for Intermarche, France's third largest supermarket chain, to inform people that though these foods might by ugly, they are as good as any others.
