1000 Ideas for Creative Reuse by Garth Johnson

Artists and crafters have always been recyclers, but for many it has not only become a thrifty choice, but also it has become a moral imperative. This book contains a cutting-edge collection of some of the most inventive work being made with reused, upcycled, and already existing materials. The work in this book ranges from clever and humble personal accessories to unique and important large-scale works of art, including paper art, fashion, jewelry, housewares, interiors, and installations.

This is a photo gallery of funky and somewhat outrageous art objects made from recycled found materials in all mediaJohnson (art, Coll. of the Redwoods) assembled this collection of works by established studio artists as a source of ideas for crafters. Library Journal
