creative recycling

I visited the inspirational shop creative recycling on Beech Road Chorlton this weekend.The gallery was set up by Glennis Andrews and Fiona Norton showing a wide range of ethical and sustainable artwork. They also run a variety of wokshops in the 'shed' at the back of the gallery. when I saw this old rusty car it reminded me of the amazing things that can be produced with a bit of imagination. The artwork on display in the gallery and in the outside area is a testament to the ongoing hard work that Glenis and Fiona put in to help inspire others to recycle and live in a sustainable way.To find out more and courses available go to http://www.40beechroad.co.uk/
