Here are some links to Jennifer's favorite places! Blazingsalads The booth at the Oregon Contry Fair we work at in the summer sometimes.

Ruby Reusable- a blog about recycled art.

Cracked Pots - A group that uses art to encourage our community to creatively look at trash. Reuse is at the heart of all we do. Think before you throw.

By the way, Jill Carter helped me get this website online. I couldn't have done it alone. I have more links to add and so many that I would like to include, but I don't want to be overwhelming.
