Dressing Up Dogs For Halloween Is Mean. And Here's A Really Good One For Only $14.

I'm really not a fan of putting dogs in clothes - ever. I think it demeans the dog AND the owner and both end up looking ridock. That said, Halloween is one of the few times I can stomach canines in costume. And for my own little monster, headgear only.

So, you can imagine my joy at finding this little beauty. For only $14, here's a slightly respectable way to turn your four-legged furry companion- of any size-  into a an extinct reptile for All Hallow's Eve.

$2400 Dog Bowls? Royal Crown Derby ‘Imari’ Pattern Pet Bowls by Peter Ting.

Does your pet deserve the Royal treatment? Lapping up in luxury? If so, then you may not mind dropping £1,476.00 ($2,371.76 USD) on one of these six unique fine china pet bowls by ceramacist and designer Peter Ting.





Especially designed for 20LTD, Peter deconstructs traditional Royal Crown Derby ‘Imari’ patterns and reassembles them into a contemporary collage. He works on the factory floor and personally creates each piece like a tailor - joining, matching, overlapping pattern upon pattern, colour against colour. Each piece may take up to 6 firings to achieve the desired depth of colour and vibrancy.

He signs each piece (together with Royal Crown Derby Chairman Hugh Gibson), and after the final firing, all the 22 ct gold is burnished by hand (a painstaking and labor intensive task, where all the gold is rubbed with damp silica sand, transforming the dull gold into a lustrous gleaming gilding).

Defecating Dogs Brighten Up A Room. Pooping Dog Lamps By Whatshisname.

The Good Puppy Table Lamp and the Good Boy Floor Lamp are designed by a Polish born artist who now lives and works in London and goes by the obscure moniker What's His Name.

The two dumping dog lamps, a Chihuahua and a Great Dane, are about as sophisticated looking as canines taking a crap can be. Both have On/Off switches shaped as dog turds that needs to be pressed, or in case of Good Boy lamp, stepped on.

Good Boy:



Good Puppy:


Both lamps were supposed to be part of London’s the Art Below exhibition on London Underground stations. Even though organizers accepted the work, unfortunately London Underground banned it for being offensive.

He now creates them as made to order pieces in limited numbers.

Creating the lamp takes about one month.



Good Puppy is available in limited editions of 200 worldwide.



PRICES:
Good Puppy Lamp £1000 (GBP) + 20% VAT + £50 shipping = £1250 ($1,966.12 USD)
Good Boy Lamp £2500 (GBP) + 20% Vat + £85 shipping = £3085 ($4,851.89 USD)
