JEN STARK PAPER ART

I love this piece of paper art by Jen Stark

ROBERT BRADFORD



Remarkable recycled art from Robert Bradford

Discarded plastic toys makes a great basis for an arresting sculpture: it's tough, comes in every colour of the rainbow and scores highest in recycling points as it would otherwise take so long to biodegrade.

PETER CALLESEN



I am also enjoying the work of dutch paper artist Peter Callesen

RECYCLED CLOTHES



Check out the lovely ladies greeting people on the door at the Progressive Greeting Live Show. All their clothes were made out of Gift Wrap and Greeting Cards. 
They looked like they were having so much fun!

ELBOW GREASE DESIGNS




produce the most fantastic items out of recycled banners!
Jenny Hurth says: "Everything you see on this site has been designed & hand sewn in the San Francisco Bay Area from discarded vinyl signs and banners. Originally printed for local trade shows, conventions, municipal or private advertising, these ENORMOUS banners would otherwise end up in the landfill.
Jenny has been a great friend of mine for years and I am totally in awe of the fantastic designs she creates out of, what would have otherwise been junk.
Look at her wonderful website: Elbow Grease Designs.
