I'm envious of people who are good at making things with their hands. I'll likely never be able to create something worthy of a gallery spot, but guys like Salman Khoshroo can. These are some wool sculptures crafted by the Iranian artist. When I look at his creations, I just want to run my fingers along them to feel each and every thread.
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!
