Wow I am loving this recycled art blog, it is excellent for ideas using specific materials. Check it out and get yourself inspired....How can i recycle this?

Blogging is great!

Starting a blog is very exciting, what a fantastic way to view artists work and show off you own, it is a virtual sketchbook!

I was very excited when I found that I could make something new from recycled papers, called Paper Fabric. Here is my example on the right....

I found a variety of different papers and used watered down PVA glue to layer up the paper on an old piece of fabric. You can sew into the paper fabric when it's dry and add buttons and tags. It also makes a great base for painting onto.

Watch this space, more exciting stuff to come....
