We recyclers are artists.  We even admire and emulate those with an "eye" as some do great artists before them.  We find it important to express our interpretations of what is redeemable by what we choose to offer our customers.  To some it is salvage style or maybe flea market style or shabby chic or garden style... OUR style.  We might love clothing from the 80s more than victorian, to another the 30s or 40s are the thing.  But that's just it   -  what do our choices say about us, the world, the past, that we just have to express?   And unlike the mass consumers of new items - the followers of the corporate monster,  we are tuning into a creative source for our inspiration to lovingly salvage what we see longing to be resurrected,  that we might inspire love, redemption and hope.
