Amazed at these hand painted floors created by Barcelona born artist and designer, Javier de Riba. To create the tile-like patterns the artist applies spray paint in layers using a mask to block out colors. He creates these brightly colored geometric patterns primarily in floors of abandoned buildings but has also created custom designs as well. This would certainly be a prodigious weekend project.

We have a new appreciation for those blank wooden beads found in many craft stores after seeing the creations of Barcelona-based designer Lucia Vergara. These pieces sold under the brand, Aprés Ski, are made primarily of glossy hand-lacquered wooden beads often painted with stripes, dots, grids and marbling effects. They are connected with a brass chain and are sometimes embellished with brass and ceramic beads. The jewelry are available in her store here at Big Cartel.

Found these great fabric designs on Japanese handmade site, Minne. They are sold under the brand name, Nocogou, and are the creations of a husband and wife team from Aichi Prefecture, Japan. The designs are created by the husband and the wife is responsible for sewing the cloth goods. The fabrics are hand printed in their studio using the screen printing method, all of which require an enormous labor of love. Their products can be purchased here at Minne and here at their online shop.
