Closer to the Ocean
I'm an artist/crafter with loads of mixed media pieces made almost entirely of recycled goods. Everything from art to hang on your wall to jewelry to furniture. Vintage goods given new life to notebooks made of recycled paper of all kinds. All sorts of themes run through these creations, from anatomy and physiology to paper cranes, plants, and the occasional humorous mustache. While there, my lovely partner in crime, Miss Amelia Jane, will stitch recycled notebooks and I will decorate the covers. This could easily be opened up to folks who want to customize something they'd like to buy- we can bring along lots of materials and let folks design their own! We'll stitch the notebooks, they paint/draw/type on them, and if they want they can choose or bring an image to be transferred onto the cover. The same can be done on single sheets of recycled pages from books/maps, etc. to be framed!
