Looks like we’re all going completely potty about 3D printing. Recently, our celebrity crush Dita Von Teese donned the world’s first completely 3D-printed dress, and even an entire building is slated to be made from 3D printing in the next year or so.

The humble bicycle bell has been left unadorned for too long. Alas, these shiny canvases have finally found their calling with a Beep Bicycle Bells make-over.
