• Rusted wire fence and sewing patterns…..equals, artwork!

  

  This upcycling project has dragged on for more than a year now…it is now on the wall and out of my head! Some of you may remember my excitement in February 2012 (more than a year ago), when I stumbled across this bundle of rusted wire fence. It was in a paddock being cleared for…

• Upcycling: egg carton muffin box

  I guess you could call this Part II of Upcycling: Transforming garbage. I have ‘a thing’ about throwing things away that can be used for something else – it drives my husband crazy. All around our house you’ll find items I have saved from the trash that are being stored until I get around to…
