Jar Aglow




In December Shiftazine looked at jars as vases.  Well how about looking at jars as lights.  This lateral thinking is so delightful and encourages the joy of being inventive and resourceful.  Just love it!

News Paper = Wall Paper


An inventive and lateral eye and mind saw a wonderful opportunity in the form of news paper and turned it into wall paper.  
Karmen, a graphic designer, and Bardan, a chef, exercised a shiftazine kind of thinking when they took Chinese newsprint and 
made a wonderful bedroom for their new nest with it.

Another Dialogue



Old door steps or even front terraces of renovated terraces of the 1970s often had small, squared shaped tiles put on them.  
These tiles have become forgotten, ignored and even a little hated.  
But they hold a world of colour.  
The palettes in this article where found in the tiles seen below them.  
Short of colour inspiration? Bored with the palette de jour?  
Just go a find your own...just look around on the street.
