Hey Catherine,
Thanks for introducing me to the work on Konstantin Datz. My godson is blind so the rubiks cube is a real winner!
Have a brilliant weekend & thanks for the inspiration,
Felicity
Excellent choices, Cat. I too love that Rubik's Cube. I used to make a small line of braille jewelry.
Enjoy the sun,

When I was learning my alphabet my dad taught me braille as well. I would have loved this Rubik's Cube when I was little!
When I saw the title of this post, you had me at hello.
That is the byline for my blog Treasures Found::Inspiration Is Everywhere. I love these quirky examples and the questions you posed. I will be thinking of them and how they apply to me.
Thanks for the inspiration!
Enjoy the day.

You are welcome Felicity- I wonder if you can buy Braille stickers and place the words for colors and textures and all kinds of things we take for granted all over the place for your godson!
Erin- I think it's been in my head since your flexibility post- loved that one!
xo- Cat :)
