Textile Objects

I am delighted to see fabric used in a whole new way with these objects by Neta Amir. Although not particularly functional, they do make lovely, tactile and delicate art pieces. If I saw these in person I would want to touch and play with them. I could imagine a whole stack of these fabric plates and cups in a store display or photo shoot. What can I say...fabric makes me excited!

Check out Neta Amir on the blog Doll Stories and Etsy shop Bobilina Studio.

    I usually only go for useful things, but I have to admit I agree with you. I just want to play with these.

    Those are the plates I need. I wouldn't have to wash dishes anymore. I could just play dishes.

    Never mind useful, they're too cool! On the other hand: they actually could be useful for all the tiny and ugly stuff that seems to be breeding in one's apartment. I would love to put my cell phone charger in one of these cups! And bf's in another... and our iPods in the two next...
