Finding the beauty in an object that no longer seems to serve a useful purpose and transforming it into a useful and fun piece is called repurposing. This kind of creativity is as old as human civilization. Look around and see what art form you can come up with.
An old rotary phone that no longer worked was transformed into a lamp. Repurposing is not only an art form, but it is also a wonderful craft.
Another amazing and creative work!
What a creative idea!!!!
We call it as recycling not repurposing. We reuse the disposable items for another use based in one’s creativity.
I’m sure there are dozens of names for this type of art, bottom line it is fun, useful, creative and keeps items out of the landfills. Thanks for commenting.
Great works…………..
What a creative idea, why couldn’t I think of that!
Rotary phones are so much phone and I enjoy when children see them for the first time. I’m sure I’m confusing them, they won’t know if a rotary phone was a phone or a lamp. lol
Now that is a creative looking lamp.
My husband has such a creative mind, don’t know how he does it, but he buys old antique phones and transforms them. 🙂
He could sell them. He does have great talent.
