Once upon a time there was a "stay at home" mom who began sandblasting glassware and selling it at shows to pay for her only son's college tuition. Said son is now a graduate and teaching other mom's children. "Stay at home" mom, let's call her Vicki, had lots of glassware left and didn't like shows anymore so she opened a shop on Etsy to sell off her stock!
Vicki is now OBSESSED with making cool stuff out of recycled/found objects. Giving things new life as beautiful keepsakes is very rewarding! Using the process to teach future generations to look at trash differently is the main goal (see Trashion interview below).
So please enjoy her shop and help her deplete her stash of goodies! I'll be the one walking along the side of the road picking up every tiny item someone else has discarded as trash!

Re: The Flower Power Challenge
Okay kids.... I've posted my flowers! What a great challenge! I did fail to mention that I use my flower creations to inspire my son, the teacher's, sixth grade class to bring me their empty cans. They get very excited to see what I form out of them and I think it changes their perspective about trash and discards. Good luck to everyone!
