These luxurious hand-constructed bags made from cork, screen-printed wool and other interesting materials are by New York artist Ryan Greer.   To see more of his work go to his fluxproductions website.

I love these bags!

I love these lacy modern handbags made of recycled aluminum soda can tabs. They are lined with nylon and painstakingly pieced together with crochet techniques by two brazilian craft cooperatives, which are located in economically depressed areas near Brasilia.
