AbstRacT

I've decided that I want to create some abstract art for the purpose of decoration, using household items. I haven't decided what to use yet (t0-go coffee cups/lids/buttons), what to make, or if I should use a variety of random items. I always think it's cool when people do this, like my sister who saved all the picture labels from her Jones Soda, & used them to decorate a container thing, or whoever strung all those bottle caps together to make a home-made wind chime, or on a smaller scale, making necklaces with starburst wrappers. If anyone has any ideas, or wants to make it a team effort, let me know! I think it could be pretty fun to be creative, especially when we are doing nothing else this summer & I AM SO BORED!

Another reason to do this: decorating rooms costs money, and I'm all for saving some cash! I'm still hoping to renovate me & Katie's bedroom before the end of the summer and we'll need to be able to decorate it with things that represent us now, not 10 years ago! And yes I am referring to the middle school awards hanging on the walls, the faceless & faded stuffed "angel" hanging from our window, and the cabbage-patch doll boxes taking up room in our closet...
