07.01.2022 I love this post by Shani Nottingham of The Breadtag Project. It's really the reason I started making art from found materials... treasures with a past or forgotten purpose. Collect and send your breadtags to: THE BREADTAG PROJECT 30 LACHLAN ST COWRA 2794 NSW... AUSTRALIA See more
05.01.2022 Oh hi Poss! I need your help people! Which little possum face do you prefer? This cutie (?!) work in progress is made entirely of a rogue hub cap and found P plates. @ Ryde, New South Wales, Australia

02.01.2022 ‘Old fashioned water tank’ by Mr 5yr old P using the pieces his bro salvaged from trophies used in my Green and Golden Bell Frog. Easy, free upcycled loose parts play = a win for the planet vs purchasing a new wooden ‘loose parts’ set even if the wood is made of sustainably sourced or recycled timber tinted with natural dyes . #notbuyingnew #givethekidabox ... #recycleandplay See more

02.01.2022 What animal would you make from hundreds of fruit stickers? Share your ideas please!! Perhaps not my best past decision - allowing the #bowerbirdboys to adorn the back door of our rental with their fruit sticker collection. Not such a quick fix one year later as we prepare to move house. ... #fruitstickers #upcycledartist #rubbishcollection #recycleandplay @ Ryde, New South Wales, Australia
