Pink Friday~Altered Art...We Love It



Please join us at Forget Me Not Dreams on Friday for one of our favorite Pink Friday themes...Altered Art! Were also celebrating the launching of new graphic and product categories on our website! A Celebration Bonus will be available to all our Newsletter members!



Pieces of lace, vintage postcards, time-worn mother-of-pearl buttons. Each piece exquisite in its own right, but coming together to bring art to a new height. Used postage stamps, a well-read letter, shimmery beads, a butterfly’s broken wing. From an altered perspective, they are no longer insignificant souvenirs of times past, but innovative creations that inspire new memories to be made. An altered piece of art might be built upon a beloved book, pulled from a forgotten shelf. Another may have once been a forlorn jewelry box, still eager to display an unexpected gem. These are stunning works of art born from abandoned items, repurposed in the most exciting ways. Perhaps each item has been thoughtfully selected in honor of a day, a season, someone you love. As the objects blended and merged and found their own space, an altered perspective revealed a meaning that could not have been anticipated. An altered work of art that forever changes one’s perspective.Joyce Lucas,
