I spent the last couple of days re purposing old art projects. I have a couple of left over pottery bird houses I made and sold a few years ago. I decided to filled them with garden compost, added succulents, allyxum and nasturtiums. I then displayed some on bamboo poles that I used from last years garden. They added a whimsical touch to this year's square foot garden.
Next, I learned how to re purpose some unsuccessful watercolors. ( I have a few of those, too). Audi Stanton taught me how to make boxes out of them. Here is one example. I love the look.
Lastly, I worked on a few oil paintings that needed some adjustments. Here are some pictures.
Oh and since I was out in my garden, I had to show off a mosaic piece I created with a cement block, broken china, and one of my raku salmon pieces that was accidentally broken.
Does this give you any ideas of what you can re purpose?
