Dismantled from New Orleans, LA


Dismantled

You can't go wrong with reconstructed, recycled, upcycled, reused or repurposed creations. Check out these terrific creations.

This recycled (and oh so infamous!) FEMA blue tarp bustier, skirt and flower choker took 3rd place in the Upcycling contest.





And who doesn't love cupcakes!?!?




And of course this recycled fabric Fleur de Lis pin ties in nicely...




Also, be sure to check out the designs by mallory blog...

ArtAndArtifacts by Susan McSherry


ArtAndArtifacts

The mosaic art of Susan McSherry is really engaging.

Round 'n' Round Garden Ball is created with a eye for color and composition and with a bowling ball as a base! Fabulous...




Pink Foo Foo Clock is a slide top box embellished with buttons and clock parts. Wonderful AND PINK!




This wonderful bird house is complete with a ceramic bird and leaves and drawer pull feet.

Into the Blystic of Ontario, Canada


Into the Blystic

I love the ethereal quality of the work of Elis Cooke.

This mixed media piece is from the Doors of Perception series




This painting, Pilgrimage II, is beautiful and the use of color is fantastic





This mixed media collage painting is also wonderful and is created with handmade and handcast paper, inks, metallic powders and acrylic paint.




This is a one of a kind, handmade journal. This would make a wonderful gift or a treat for yourself.



Be sure to take a closer look. You won't be disappointed.
