If you're looking for a way to make every day objects beautiful, you could do worse than explore what can be made with a 3D printer. Although I knew great things could be achieved by this medium, I really had no idea that the output could be as elaborate and intricate as these 3D printed wallets. Called Relio, they're pitched as a fusion between innovation and artistry – and now that I've seen them I'm completely in love.

They've been designed by Italian sculptors, and I know they're going to serve as some serious 3D printing design inspiration for our resident 3D printing enthusiast Beth (see here what happened when she made a Hue Forge print). Both beautiful and functional, these wallets show the potential of 3D printing – and how we can add beauty to the mundane in new ways.
