Most of my recycled/reused materials were found in the school art room shelf of unclaimed art "garbage". My non-recycled materials such as acrylic paint could be found in the art room in a yellow bucket or at home with the paints I already own.
Found in the bins/shelf I used old orange/red mesh bags that oranges usually come in, I cut, stretched, and braided the material to create dimensional braids which can be seen below.
