recycled clutch

how-to, photos, words

this is what my workspace looked like for a while.  the clutch is made out of plastic bags, fused together with an iron.  hence the name recycled.  i then painted the plastic with acrylic paint, and sewed crazily over it.  and i don’t think i’ll post my trade secrets all over the internet, so that’s all i’m telling you about how to make it.

and artistic photos of the clutch finished.  and me.

i started babysitting every wednesday for one family, and this is lorena.  I drew the earth, and she wanted to color the sea bluer.  so you could see it.  i did something else amazing for earth day.  check out earth mosaic. you can do it too, and upload photos you took on april 22, 2009.

we picked grapefruit and tangelos from our grandparents’ trees.

i love this photo because:

the focus is on the orange one.

the orange one pops.

the orange one, i guess i shall say the tangelo, is in a visual sweet spot.

this one is rather cool.

bit of enlightenment:

putting a jug full of water outside will detract dogs.  like un attract them.  bother them so they don’t come to the front of your house.  supposedly.  it works, i think.  i didn’t witness it work, but i heard first hand accounts from reliable witnesses.
