apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time


Look! Anything can be art

Nancy sent us these pictures of a childhood momento that's currently gracing a wall in her apartment. She explains,

It's the Incredible Hulk school bag. It is my first school bag. I hated it soooo much when I was a kid. Because it was a boy school bag. For some reasons, I kept it for 20s some years. It carry many fond memories so I decided to hang it up as an artwork for 1st condo. [close-up after the jump]

What a wonderful idea. So often it seems these momentos are only gathering dust in a box somewhere. I recently found a box of artwork I saved from when I was younger and wondered what to do with it- thank you for the inspiration.

I like those little brown stools under the bag. Where are those from?

The 2 three legs stool are from Target.

Nancy,

Did you have your bag professionally framed, or were you able to find a pre-made frame to do it yourself? How much space is there between the matte and the glass?

I have a cotton Snoopy bookbag which I think is going to make an artistic appearance, soon. :)

Thanks!

Malle Kate -

I got the frame from Ikea. I used four small binder clips and clipped the school bag straps
to the matte. Click on my name it'll link you to Ikea frame. Have fun!

No, not "anything" can be art. Anything can be decoration.
