I am so impressed with Puerto Rico…
And the creativity I found there!
We stopped in for some chilled coffee at a cafe and this is what we found!

Look Closer…

It is made from old book covers!
How cool is that?
And there is more!

Don’t be distracted by Jim’s great looks…
That is a piece made from old wooden spoons and a small mirror above his cute head!
Loved this place!
After the trip to the cafe we went to the Museo De Las Americas.

Where we ran into BASURA by Nick Quijan

Yes…
Basura means Trash.
And Yes, this Artist made Art from Trash!

Trash he found on one stretch of beach in Old San Juan right there in Puerto Rico!

I love these “men”!
And…
So inspired by the art and creativity around me…
I started to see art in everything…

And there…

And that pile too!
I searched, gathered and took home my own little pile!
 |

I wish I could have taken more of those little pieces of drift wood home with me…
There were thousands of them!

And who doesn’t love sea glass?

Playing with my finds…
 |
| From Craft Ideas From PR! |
I like it!
I can’t wait to put those pieces to work for me…
Not sure it will be this sunburst or what…
But I am sure I will tell you all about it!
Keep your eyes and mind open…
Beauty is everywhere…
And…
In everything…
And Everybody!
