Etsy Mondays - sushipot

I'm back!  Didn't get nearly as much done as I'd hoped to (isn't it ever the way?), but I did manage to hatch a few ideas for this little blog.  One of them is Etsy Mondays.  Every week, I will focus on an artist who uses recycled materials in new and exciting ways.

This week's featured artist is sushipot.  In her profile, she states that her "inspirations come from...all things old, chipped, cracked, worn, dusty, used...."  Gotta love that!

This little guy is a sushibot, made from bits and pieces and some collage work.

She also makes cards, collages and the greatest buttons/magnets using bits of old ephemera...

How cool would these be on your fridge?

If you have an Etsy shop and specialize in re-used/recycled/repurposed or in some way have an environmentally-friendly leaning to your business, send me an e-mail and let me know about it!
