Found these incredibly detailed paper insects in the portfolio of Belgium design studio, Soon. The insects are made from recycled paper and created to promote the recycled paper line for IGEPA Benelux. These amazing insects are a part of a three-dimensional garden that included a variety of insects, leaves and flowers. You can watch a video here that shows how the installation was developed and you can also see their portfolio details here on Behance.

These colorful and whimsical jewelry pieces are the creations of Greek artist, Iris Tsante, who transforms colored pencil nubs into these contemporary designs. She says of her work:
“I consider jewelry as a process of exploring ways to define the senses of “beauty†and “value†in reference to memories of significant objects and the subsequent human/social connections related to them. It is a dialectic process since it involves the direct or non-direct communication between maker, wearer and viewer. My pieces provide connotations of optimism, lightness, simplicity, joy and innocence, revealing on the same time qualities such as fragility and vulnerability. They often are characterized by a “mischiefing†tendency, sometimes in harmony with the qualities of the original materials and sometimes making contradicting statements upon more “formal†and “serious†symbols of the western dress code.â€

Love this simple holiday DIY project from Brooklyn-base company, Tattly, who produces non toxic temporary tattoos designed by professional artists. Found this particular project on their blog. The tattoos are temporary but can be made permanent using a clear sealant on the globes. The blank glass ornaments can be purchased at your favorite hobby store and Tattly’s tattoo collection can be purchased here on their website.
