Glamour Girls Who Will Give you Gas (or Steamy Cabbage) by Ju Duoqi.

Born in Chongqing in 1973, and a graduate of the Sichuan Fine Arts Institute, Ju Duoqi (shown above) is Chinese artist and photographer who first started working with vegetables in 2006. In 2008 she created a series of reproductions of classic painting reproductions using vegetables called 'The Vegetable Museum' and then, in 2010, this hilarious series "The Fantasies of Chinese Cabbage." The project consisted of 18 portraits  of pin-up girls and beautiful women made entirely out of green cabbage (the images that appear to use red cabbage are simply altered/inverted).

How "Sin In Linen" began:
Sin in Linen is the passion of entrepreneur Sandy Glaze. While searching for bed sheets for her own home she found precious little product to match her adventurous sense of style. Sensing that she was not alone in her quest for self-expression Sandy launched her new soft goods enterprise with her mother, Iris.



Sandy founded Sin in Linen in 2004 to express her desire to bring the culture she lives into consumer home textile products. Sin in Linen pairs evocative designs with traditional linens for bed, bath, kitchen and home décor. Retro styling, rock and roll themes and dreams of seduction are infused into everyday products in hopes that our customers will feel as enthusiastic about their own personal style as they do at Sin in Linen.

Since that first introduction in 2004 Sandy has continued to push the boundaries of home textile design by providing soft goods with her lively style by introducing a full range of retro-style imagery as well as soft textures and designs for bedding, bath and kitchen linens. Sandy and Iris felt the seductive whimsy of the 1940’s and 1950’s pin-up imagery was the perfect place to start.
