Got Cardboard? Make Art!

This is one of the low cost high style recycled art projects I wish I knew about when I moved into my first apartment. My lack of funds meant I had blank white walls for longer than I wanted.

If only we had blogs back in the day! I can’t believe I just wrote that. Old people say that. I’m not an old woman! I’m not! I’m not! I’m not!

Pardon me while I have an extensional crisis.

And chocolate.


Ah! Much better.

Back to the story.

A little boredom, a little low on funds, and a whole lotta upcycled cardboard later Bon Temps Beignet came up with this clever cardboard wall art.

I think this would be even better if you used different types of scrap wood or stained each block a different color wood stain.

I have the itch to build, can you tell?

What do you think? Yea or Nay?
