Eric Andrew Lewis, a web developer at The New York Times, has just created an addictive new web tool that allows you to transform any photo into a colorful collage of emojis. Using Emoji Mosaic is as simple as choosing a photo and clicking "upload." Just be patient because processing may take a while. I wanted to see how well it worked, so I uploaded a picture of Lauren Mayberry. Here's the gorgeous Chvrches singer, who is made of shoes, pigs, pandas, frogs, teddy bears, dollar signs, etc.
Embroidery is nowhere near forgotten, and in fact, it's experiencing something of a resurgence as artists around the globe are putting their own unique spins on the craft. Indonesia's Irene Saputra is one of them, and more than 45,000 people on Instagram already follow her. Handmade from colorful threads stitched onto fabric, Irene's embroideries begin as original illustrations. What I really like about her stitched pieces is that some of them are meant to be worn. Look at an array of her handiwork!
