In Lost & Found Objects I couple discarded bits from daily life and create new, funky, sometimes funny, jewelry. I also sew dolls from found stuff and make collage from my own handmade paper and found objects. I get a charge out of using things overlooked and under appreciated by others. I have been working with recycled materials for over 20 years, at first because i had no money and then later (even though i still have no money) because that is all that interests me. I think i like the extra challenge of working with what is available and i congratulate myself on finding uses for things normally thrown away.

I get really excited about finding a resource that is abundant! and figuring out a good way to reuse it. I have been collecting bits of this and that, old junk drawer kind of stuff, broken things, shiny things, stuff I find on the street while walking. There is nothing like the patina of a partially rusted, partially shiny smashed bottle cap or piece of metal - run over by cars with the pavement texture ground into it. Yeah!! s craft cooperative in Honduras, Central America. These ladies make jewelry and hand made paper and products. I usually get to visit in August when my after school and summer programs are on break in Indiana.
