Air Tattoos

Though fragile in appearance, Air Tattoos are just the opposite. Made from a thin waterproof, tear-proof material, each of the four designs were created from hand drawn shapes. The idea being that you can now wear a drawing as a piece of jewelry. You can support Air Tattoos by donating to their in-exchange Kickstarter campaign. (via Dezeen)

Chloe Fleury

As someone who’s been paper-obsessed since the mid-80s (office supply catalogues were my drug of choice), paper-based art always makes me stop and stare. These paper sculptures from Chloe Fleury (aka Hopscotch Design) make me want to spend a day or seven folding, cutting, and creating my own pieces. And also eat a box of popsicles maybe. (via The Jealous Curator)
