W
hy frame a mass-produced image
when you can get creative and
recycle any number of items
you might normally throw out,
or things that have a personal
meaning to you? Left over wrapping paper with a
striking print transforms into your own unique piece
of art. Wallpaper offcuts work beautifully, too.
TRY THIS…
Take recycling to a
new level by framing
a vintage magazine
cover (this one came
from a Paris flea
market), a swatch of
fabric, a piece of sheet
music or even an old
knitting pattern.
