Today I got a question from June on Facebook asking if I had seen any cool crafts using recycled VHS tapes. I just saw a pretty cool book shelf recently on Recyclart that was made completely from old VHS tapes. June's question got me thinking of whether you really could do anything with VHS tapes. Guess what. You can! People...you never cease to amaze me! Let's have a look at what brilliant minds are doing out there with old abandoned VHS tapes. What surprised me the most? How many artists I ran across that are using this material in their works of art.
Well, I'm shocked at what people have found to do with old VHS casettes. June, I hope you find some inspiration in here to do something with yours. Come back and share with us if you do!
LOL...I had to go look. Well, it may not be soggy now, but it would be if you sprayed some water on it. Look at this art of Obama that I found...made out of cereal!
Mike, this is another great compilation for recycled crafts! I am sure there are at least a couple of ideas I might play with in the nearest future. Thank you for sharing them!
Sam - Very fun that you found your way over here! I'm going over your way to have a look around now. Any other great repurposed projects you have hidden away anywhere? Michael
I have lots and lots of VHS tape I would love to donate to some crafty person. If you live within 3 hours of Sacramento, California I will deliver or perhaps we can meet somewhere in the middle if you live further away. Email me at valodif@yahoo.com and we can figure out how to make this work.
Awesome!!! Some great ideas! I can't wait to try some of these ideas. :-) Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool! You really can recycle anything, can't you? Well maybe not soggy cereal..well, you can give that to your dog, can't you?
