29 Honeylicious Inventions
From Honeycomb Constructs to Bee Booze:
Meghan Young — Oct 22, 2009 — Art & Design
Aside from being one of the most hated insects on the face of this earth (I shudder just at the thought of them), bees have a pretty sweet life—literally. I mean, their daily job is to produce one of the most delicious syrupy concoctions ever. Humans love honey so much we’ve modeled quite a few creations after it. Here are just a few of these honeylicious inventions.
