One of my favorite life philosophies is "Waste Not, Want Not". It is partly because I am thrifty by nature, but it is also because I don't have a large art studio and can't function well when I'm overwhelmed by clutter. I have learned to try to make use of what I have before buying more to save space, time and money.
I am proud to be a member of "Beyond the Edge Fiber Artists". We have an exhibit being created right now with the theme "Say Something". We are to choose a phrase and make a fiber art piece based on that phrase. The phrase is supposed to be meaningful to us personally. So I have chosen "Waste Not, Want Not" as my phrase. Below is the fiber art piece I created for this exhibit:
Over the next couple of posts I'll talk about how I made this piece. I hope to give you some ideas for reusing some of your items.
Sorry to have taken so long since my last post. Between trips and a few other things I just didn't have the time. Thanks for visiting my blog!
