Recycling and Crafting

[Chichi]

Hello this is my first post here.
I did some craft projects years ago, and I think they qualify as recycling.
They may not be original designs, because I got most of my ideas from craft magazines.
Gin transfer technique of photocopied images on clay.

Decoupage on plate, pansies from roadside throw away

Acid etched/painted wine bottle and thrift shop bowl. Acrylic paint

old cloth napkin.

Thank you JUSTUSNAK!
I found my way to this forum via Backyardchicken.com.
I have 4 pet chickens and I'm always trying to tweek their lodgings with reusable items.
Crafting used to be an obsession of mine, especially rubberstamping and cardmaking. It's very rewarding to decorate something an repurpose it.

HEY FARMERCHICK,
Thank you.
Naw, I don't sell them. Someone asked me if they could have the painted bottles and the decoupage plate, so I gave it to them.
Hmm...I seem to have a thing for bottles.
