:: Robot lovin’

Posted by Kirsty on July 3, 2008 | Permalink

I’ve totally fallen for this adorable little robot dude by Shuusei on Etsy. And, as we move into our new flat next weekend, I decided it was the opportune time to purchase some art, dahlink!

I’ve been hanging around on the edges of Etsy for a while now, looking at all the gorgeous, beautiful things from so many talented people, but this is the first time I’ve bought anything, and I’m very impressed. It’s such an easy website to use and Shuusei was incredibly helpful and lovely. I definitely recommend her!

:: Kent Rogowski’s bears

Posted by Joelle on January 24, 2008 | Permalink

I can’t decide if I want to run away from these or give them a hug. Through the rather straightforward method of turning stuffed toys inside out, restuffing and sewing them up, artist Kent Rogowski has created something very arresting. They are pathetic, adorable, monstrous looking things, don’t you think?

See the rest of the project on Kent’s site. A book is availble here, I believe prints can be sourced through the Foley Gallery in NYC, or how about creating some of your own?
