2D or not 2D, by just.luc
Smooth surfaces, bright in color, shiny, intriguing, stimulating
Across cultures and throughout history, children have had toys to amuse, share, nurture and enrich their lives. A toy is an entry to a world of imagination – a gift of love.
These Flikr photos show the universal characteristics of playthings: smooth edges, bright colors, visually engaging, basic geometric shapes.
Maybe the photos will stimulate you to design and sew a new art quilt. If you give the quilt to a child, the journey of its creation is definitely worth sharing with him or her.
If you need to make a gift, these 10 photos will inspire you to think of something original and personal.
