I’ve given crafts as gifts many times before but I can only think of one or two times in my life that I’ve given collages to friends and/or family. This year I was really broke and lacked the energy to find the “perfect” gift so I faced rejection and went ahead anyway. Here’s the collage I gave to my parents in a frame. And yes, it was made during Art Month! They liked it a lot.
I’m a huge reader so it’s usually really hard for me to cut up book pages for lines of text, but a neglected book at an antique store recently called out to me. It lent me a few phrases to cut out and reuse. 🙂
