Maybe some corks have stories and represent good memories. These ideas are a great way to preserve those cork memories in a functional and aesthetically cool way.

Travel Destination: Santorini

When I was a kid, I went on a cruise to the Greek Islands with my family and the place I remember the most is Santorini. I don't think there is another place like this in the world, it may resemble Positano, Italy but they are quite different. Santorini's all-white architecture by the sea is the perfect canvas for reflections of the sun and the ocean. I would love to go back and see this island with my grown-up eyes. Fun fact: this island is a remnant of a big volcanic explosion.

Of course the other thing I remember is the intense heat and how my dad managed to gulp down a big glass of orange juice and order a second one before the waiter even left the table. Lastly, I definitely didn't forget the mule ride to the top.

Classic Photos in Lego

"Astronaut Buzz Aldrin on the surface of the Moon" Neil Armstrong (1969)

Mike Stimpson, a 35-year-old British photographer, has spent his career recreating some of the world’s most famous photographs using his favorite childhood toy.

Stimpson hopes his Lego creations will attract attention back to the original work. “I enjoy the fact that I'm bringing classic photographs and photographers to a new audience through my Lego recreations,” he says. “Hopefully that might get a few more people interested in finding out more about some of the world's great photographers.”

Wildflowers: Family Photography

I accidentally found Joy's Wilflowers Photography on the web and I fell in love with the pictures because all they portray is happiness and love.  I hope you enjoy these as much as I do.
