Out of The Box Hand Made

Kind a stuck and lack of inspirations lately, today browsing I found blogs by Irene Zuccarello, which is really my kind  "bundle of joy" blog. So many of her founding are out of the handmade from artisan and designer around the world. I really enjoy read and can not stop view every details of handmade that her fellow artisan and designer made.

One of my favorite handmade that featured from her blog is about paperclay pendant by Elsa Mora. She is really unique and interesting person. Check her cute illustrated story about her self.

She is Elsa Mora

These is my favorite Elsa's illustration about her.




And here are my favorite piece one of  Elsa Mora paperclay creation,





Each paperclay pendant has an original hand painted illustration and is one of a kind.Simply beautiful and creative in many way.

Back to Irene Zuccarello,  I also found Malin Koort Illustration and Graphic Design. Also my source of inspiration. Check out her super cool creation.

 
The graphic below has been used also to create adorable puzzle cubes. Oh My!




More and more great creation from artist and designer around the world, it help me to stay focus and keep my aim to what I do today.

OH MY So KAWAII !

Kawaii (かわいい [kaw͍ai.i], literally, "lovable", "cute", or "adorable"[1]) is the quality of cuteness in the context of Japanese culture. In Japanese perception As a cultural phenomenon, cuteness is increasingly accepted in Japan as a part of Japanese culture and national identity. Tomoyuki Sugiyama 杉山奉文 (Sugiyama Tomoyuki?), author of "Cool Japan", believes that "cuteness" is rooted in Japan's harmony-loving culture, and Nobuyoshi Kurita 栗田経惟 (Kurita Nobuyoshi?), a sociology professor at Musashi University in Tokyo, has stated that "cute" is a "magic term" that encompasses everything that's acceptable and desirable in Japan.[23]
(Wikipedia)

Only the Japanese knows how to use the words into something. Check this out!

An example in construction work: Temporary guardrail in Narita.

An All Nippon Airways Boeing 747 with a Pokémon livery.

Kawaii goods outlet in 100 yen shop
 Anyway the words really inspired me. Take look some of "Kawaii" jewelry and accessories items that really an eye candy that I gather from NHK. I hope you get inspired too.
