Dryer Sheets Repurposed!
February 22, 2009
Some artists blow me away with their ideas. I love Katherine Sands blog (http://katherinesands.wordpress.com) and am constantly inspired. This post, however, made me sit up straight in my chair…I throw these dryer sheets out on a regular basis!! How could I be so blind?? I am newly inspired to get going with my new silk paints – thanks Katherine! Enjoy her posts and check out her website at http://www.katherinesands.com/ also.
How Many Dryer Sheets…
…can one collect? For my use, I don’t want a block of color, but just a bit of color and transparency for layering. They can still have paint added to them as well as stamping, and I’m even wondering how they would take a gel medium photo transfer…hmmmm, I may have to try that!
Katherine has many examples of collage and quilting works using these painted and dyed dryer sheets. Check them out! I will be following her blog and sharing more inspiring ideas in the future, too.
