Wonder Bread, Bologna, Toilet Paper? Perfect Canvases For An Etsy Artist!

I'm generally not an artsy person, but I've been admiring a lot of the contest entries in Greenwala's "Choose To Reuse" contest and think that everyone there deserves a round of applause.

Every single person who put aside their insecurities to take a chance and enter something of their own creation -- something made out of unconventional resources -- well, I just think that's great.

Recently, my wife was shopping on Etsy, her favorite craft-inspired marketplace, when she called me over to the computer and said, "You Have GOT To Tell Everyone At Greenwala About This Artist."

So here I am. Her name is Catherine McEver, the name of her Etsy shop is "Rubblearium," and she has done some pretty wild things with unusual materials.

If you ever need baby shoes that literally leave no carbon footprint behind, then this is the person to go to.

Oh, except for this shoe, which was literally crafted OUT OF carbon paper...it's probably safe to say that it will probably leave somewhat of an inky trail behind.

Actually, everything in her collection has been converted into art prints, so it would be a great way to add a little humor to your home environment and broadcast that you're a hardcore greenie.

She seems to favor refined carbohydrate materials like Wonder Bread and tortillas.

In fact, she must have had a carbohydrate-induced hallucination one day (that's what refined white stuff will do, I guess) because she ended up casting aside her shoe theme and just embroidered a few slices instead.

That must have been one hell of a carb crash she was going through, but she produced some  interesting art, huh?

I don't know about the practicality of a toilet paper shoe, but I wish I had a few sponge shoes to strap onto my twins so they could work off their room and board.

McEver has also crafted...I don't know what you'd call these...mini fairy party dresses? Some of the gargantuan moths that have been dive bombing my house lately would probably be able to fit into these numbers pretty well.

She's charging a mere $20 for each 6-inch x 6-inch giclee print on an 8.5-inch x 11-inch sheet of professional grade Epson Enhanced Matte paper -- seems like a fair deal for a very unusual and personality-packed collection.
