i’m jealous of maria joão ribeiro

02.01.2011

How cool would I be if I could actually pull off wearing that gorgeous spiky necklace… or that fantastically huge ring? Well hey, if a dog can look fabulous in this stuff, I’m certainly going to give it a try! Stunningly unique felted, and crocheted, wearable art by Portuguese artist Maria João Ribeiro. L.O.V.E.

{Speaking of fab dogs, pop over to sfgirlbybay today – which by the way is where I found Maria’s work – for my new series that just started today! It’s called ‘curated collections’, and the first collection up… you guessed it … pet portraits!}

    Those are gorgeous! I wonder if Jeff would notice $140 missing from our bank account? I have my eye on one of the chokers!

    i know right? you rarely get spiky AND comfy – these are pretty special! … and tricia, i’m quite sure you could blame the missing $140 on something else?!? worth a try anyway ; )

    I am so into knit art right now. If I was better at knitting I think I would yarn bomb my whole house. Good thing I’m not! Wonderful post over at SFgirlbyBay. I look forward to following that series.
