The Battersea Power Station in London is set to receive a major overhaul, from a giant rotting waste of a power plant, into a bustling and thriving center for cultural, art and entertainment events.

For those who haven’t kept up, the arts and crafts scene has evolved. Crafts no longer means 80 year old ladies going to Michael’s (or comparable stores) to buy new crocheting patterns of the grand canyon or the American flag. Younger and younger folk are getting involved, twisting and turning traditional forms of craft-wizardry into fresh new styles and directions. Our favorite for today, the Punkey Monkey dolls from crafster Clarity Miller. Featuring heaps of punk attitude, safety pins and dyed hair, the ‘Sid & Nancy’ pair of the Punkey Monkey series is brilliant for any fashionable punk these days. The dolls are stuffed with 100% polyester and aren’t recommended for children. Well, maybe for punk children.
