We’ve certainly seen our share of coffee cup art. The often stark white drinking vessels have become a blank canvas for brilliant typography, comic strips, and have even gone 3-D.
Tokyo-based artist Adrian Hogan is now taking the medium panoramic, with an Instagram video series. Hogan illustrates a scene on a cup, then takes us through his surroundings with a slow twist. Check out more below and over at Instagram.
Few things improve upon a campfire better than a good ghost story and S’mores. The Tell Us S’more t-shirt by Threadless has both camping-enhancers covered. Darn graham cracker — always scaring the kids.

When you need to take your wine drinking on the road, and would rather not deal with extra stemware or a corkscrew, there’s Stacked Wines. Four individual wine glasses fit snugly together like LEGOs, and together are the equivalent of a standard 750 ml bottle of wine.
The individual glasses are made from shatter-proof PET plastic — just in case your wine adventures are on the dangerous side. The actual wines also live up to the awesomeness of the packaging — developed by Stacked Wine’s in-house sommelier and designed to be enjoyed outdoors. Finally, a good excuse to leave the house.

If you’re in need of some attention at your next campout, or would like to proclaim your food love to your fellow scout leaders — Field Candy is here to help. The UK-based tent designer has a full line of creative camping tents — from animal prints and commissioned art, to various foodstuffs.
And think about how a giant sandwich in the middle of the woods could help keep the bears away.
