LEGO is a medium that can bring anything you can imagine to life, from far away planets to mystical realms. But builders like Timofey Tkachev know that it’s often just as impressive to recreate the real world in LEGO form. Timofey has created a handbag from LEGO bricks that you could understandably mistake for the real thing.

The stair-step pattern of the alternating ridges on the grill bricks makes for a realistic texture, and the bag’s contents – from the billfold to the familiar red and white cigarette box – remind me of exactly the stuff I used to find in my mom’s purse when I’d go digging for spare change.
