Natural Wood Egg Rattle

This beautiful rattle is such a perfect present for baby's first Easter basket. And, it's made by Woman Woodworker, who has, according to her etsy storefront "some skills and a garage full of power tools."

Rubber Stamp Portraits

A stunning use of materials to create a mosaic-type portrait. Artist, Reena Saini Kallat, uses rubber stamps to create these works of art.

The work stands like a screen, holding up a portrait formed by several hundred names of people, rendered in scripts of over 14 Indian languages. From a distance they come together as a portrait, but up-close they almost seem like a circuit-board of rubberstamps. The rubberstamps are made with names of those officially registered as having gone missing in India from different geographical zones. These include the names of those lost through natural calamities such as landslides, floods and earthquakes, the names of those who have gone missing during riots or large scale mishaps and the names of those abducted or absconding, with the police still trying to ascertain their whereabouts.
