Like a used paint rag…
Do you ever feel like a old dried up paint rag, laying on the floor – waiting to be thrown away? Discarded. Finished. Used up?
Sometimes I do feel like that, but not today.
I just wondered, because I needed to share this photo with you guys!
Isn’t this dry paint rag beautiful?
So life can’t be too bad.
That’s what I’m thinking.

Thank you Jenny, so glad you’re enjoying new (and old) blog posts and sharing your enthusiasm with me – it just makes my heart sing with you. Thank you for doubling my fun too! :-)
Paint and dye rags, especially if they are paper towel or wet wipes, are great for collaging and making paper-cloth (see Stitch Alchemy by Kelli Perkins).
Thanks Michele, I don’t own that book but I sure know about recycling things. I hearts; that! This paint rag is already in my stash of collage papers! Yay, for pretty papers, right? :-)
I love pretty papers. I think you’d like the book. I’ve made some of the paper-fabric using kitchen towel that I’d mopped up procion dyes with, and then glued it to muslin with a 50/50 mix of PVA glue and water. There are pictures on my Pinterest boards. Drop by and have a look.
Hej. Man kan se något vackert i allt om man bara rätt glasögon på sig. Du har den kunskapen och dom rätta glasögonen, var stolt för det.
Ja, vilken glasögonorm jag är. Och att du är här och hälsar på, vilken ära! Tack mom! I ♥ you!
Oh, pretty! I have used old clean up rags in my journal. Recently used one to make my most favorite spread … at least for now, lol.
Thanks Melanie, that sounds interesting with the rag inside the journal… I will be sure to use this paper cloth inside my journal (or in a collage) too. Love all those colors!
yes, beautiful! You could wrap that around stretcher blocks or an old canvas and have a new piece of modern art.
Spring is coming……..
Thanks Marcia, I love it when you come visit my blog, though I miss your posts as you know. Feels like you and me are old timers in this world. :-) Take care!
Be proud! You are beautiful and do beautiful things :)
Nämen ett besök på min blog, vilken ära! Thanks a bunch and big hugs to you sweet one!
i love this post. :)
Thank you sweet one. Sometimes the simplest things are the best, right? In times like this I love my camera and that I can document the transient things in the world – and on my studio desk!
Beautiful, indeed–a happy accident, but made by you all the same. Unintentional art. I like it. :]
