What does it mean to be a sustainable artist. Well, for me it means utilizing items that would other wise be waste. So, being a Sustainable artist means using items that would usually go to the land field. badartworld.com http://www.etsy.com/shop/Badart http://www.etsy.com/shop/Badarttoo

Rags To Riches
As a sustainable artist I work backwards. Once I have supplies I decide what to make. I wrote about a bag of t-shirt remnants recently. Well, that bag is full of great colors and I am about half way through the laborious task of cutting the shirts down so thay are suitable to crochet. I am very excited by the color and have many ideas for this batch of yarn. I am happy to turn this bag of wastful scraps into beautiful rugs. I am trying to hold back until I see exactly what I have. Here is a sample of the colors I have so far. LOVE IT!!
