Inspire me Thursday "find art in the everyday" challenge


As soon as I saw this title I thought about my day to day life of home, cooking, cleaning, washing, the school run etc...so I raided my recycle bin to create some everyday art!! I put a wax crayon rubbing of a bird and a painting that I had previously done with the kids as the background. I then cut and pasted images from my recycle bin and added some paper cast flowers that I had made out of toilet rolls!!..Everyday art for nothing!!! and great fun!

Wow this is really cool. I love the idea to use everyday recycled objects on the collage. I am such a junker. I save everything. I have good intentions of using this stuff but then I get weird. I'm afraid I'll use it up and never be able to find that certain piece again. Now I have started scanning scrapbook papers in the computer.
Oh and thanks for commenting on my blog... and wear gloves next time you solder.LOL
