Household Objects and Appliances Cross-Stitched by Ulla Stina Wikander

Swedish designer Ulla Stina Wikander uses household appliances and cooking tools as the base to her cross-stitched sculptures, bestowing outdated objects with a new life. Most of the items come from the 70s, yet the patterns she covers their bodies in are much older. The cross-stitch designs come from the 59-year-old artist’s vast collection, allowing Wikander to give a new context to each blow dryer, rolling pin, and typewriter she covers.

You can see more of her sculptures, as well as a variety of designed accessories, on her website and Instagram. (via My Modern Met and Thisiscolossal.)
