Recycle/Repurpose
This week it’s once again my turn to issue a challenge to you all. Since most of us like to alter things, I thought “repurpose/recycle” might be fun. You might like to find something that started out life as one thing, and turn it into a piece of art. Or, you might simply like to use something recycled in your piece – a piece of ribbon from a bunch of flowers, for example. As usual, it’s all up to your imaginations, and I can’t wait to visit everyone to see where this challenge has taken them. Don’t forget to tell us on your blogs what the reporposed or recycled element is. Have fun!

I just completed in a swap in which we were to recycle, so I’m already ahead of the game! 🙂

Well, technically, I made this bag from old curtains and DD’s book bag yesterday, but I’d like to enter it anyway! So much of what I create has elements of recycled stuff in it!

Great challenge as I’m always altering or recycling something. This gave me an opportunity to recycle/repurpose a tin box which has sat on my shelf for months 🙂 Anyway. if you’d like to see, it’s on my blog here:
