I’ve been look­ing at pho­tog­ra­phy acces­sories as of late, and love these paint­ed lens caps. Appro­pri­ate­ly called Snack Caps, they fea­ture a dough­nut and hamburger.

Flickr user NanaAkua’s grand­moth­er has cre­at­ed over 500 Temari balls, a folk art that orig­i­nat­ed in Chi­na dur­ing the 7th cen­tu­ry. The hand-embroi­dered balls are often craft­ed by par­ents or grand­par­ents, made from the thread of old kimonos. They are giv­en to chil­dren on New Year’s day as a spe­cial gift.
