Various items, such as your favorite cloth, postcards, illustrations, photos, pictures drawn by children, etc. are "trimmed" and placed into three dimensional plaques to add a bright, cheerful air to everyday life.
These can be used as pleasant decorations, stacked as blocks to add spatial effects, shading, and a nice wooden texture - or anything else the creative mind desires.
