I love words and quotes of freedom, travel and inspiration. Last year, when I was about 8 1/2 months pregnant (and feeling totally trapped, too big to travel, and so "uninspired" that I was getting stressed out about why the nursery room green didn't match the crib sheet green), I decided to make a collage. I started sorting through my mile-high stack of magazines and cut out everything and anything that inspired me. One collage turned into three pieces of personalized framed art.
I still have these hanging in our guest bathroom and still love reading them as much as I did the day I created them. I found it to be a great vent and a very unique conversational piece (yes, people do ask me about them after they leave the bathroom).
A collage doesn't have to be only words on paper. Check out this post for another unique version: http://specklednest.blogspot.com/2008/03/tgif-quickiefabric-collage.html
Your collages look pretty cool and I enjoyed the link to other blog. Keep up the writing of the nifty stuff.
