This is just plain awesome. It’s a doghouse, made of reclaimed wood scavenged from Dumpsters with a garden on top.

It’s a doghouse with a rooftop garden.

“Garden House,” by Kirstin M., was the “Creative Prize Winner” at an event in Savannah, GA, benefiting the local Humane Society and Emergent Structures, which was a rather Unconsumption-y effort based in Savannah and connected to SCAD. (More on the event here.)

There was a live/silent auction, and you can see the other entrants here. I can’t believe somebody snagged this for a mere $75! Lucky dog…

John Ronald Reuel Tolkien was born January 3, 1892. Today he would been 120 , a remarkable age for a hobbit. He left us an incredible legacy, The Hobbit, The Lord of the Rings and The Silmarillion , and more. So today raise a mug of Shire-made beer or a glass of Elven wine, or even just a lovely cup of tea to the memory of J.R.R. Tolkien, gone since 1973 but always remembered for the world he brought to life.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY, PROFESSOR TOLKIEN !
