Meds: the art and crafts
Craftster user Knit-R-Done (blog) posted this 'stitched painting' embroidery, the first in her series 'The Promise of Pills'. I love the ironic pairing of the pill with the cutesy fabric, and the subtlety of the use of colour.
Craft: magazine has Becky Stern's Vicodin ring and earrings.
Writer, etsy artist (& LJ friend), Montrealer reqbat has a whole series based on pills (though more recently, it's all about crows and magpie & whiskeyjack of course approve). Check out some of the things from her shop:
Look at this witty rug by Dan Golden:
Apparently, he's coming out with a whole line of pillows called "The Meds" with abstract imagery based on popular prescription pills. [via More Ways to Waste Time]
