Repurposed Vinyl LP Record Album Art


Today's post combines two of my very favorite things: music and creativity!

I still have ALL of my old record albums and I would never part with them,
but I couldn't think of a better use for old scratched records that are no longer
playable than to transform them into some unique and useful artwork & accessories. 

Want to try your hand at creating some of your own record album art? 
Vinyl is pliable when heated and can be reshaped and molded into
all sorts of different forms. Check it out!

Vintage Album Cover Notebooks Are Awesome!


Sometimes I come across something that is so absolutely fantabulous that I just 
have to share it with you! This happened recently, when I came across John & Jill's
Etsy shop Records And Stuff while perusing Etsy for some music themed items. 

The first thing that caught my eye was a notebook whose cover was made from an 
old Led Zeppelin IV album. Awesome! Since my daughter Erica  (aged 10 soon to be 11) 
plays guitar, goes to School Of Rock, and is a Zeppelin fan, I thought of her right away, thinking this would be a great musical journal for her to use for her guitar lessons 
and would just be the perfect place for her to write her musical thoughts and ideas. 
She was thrilled when I gave her the notebook, whose inside featured the album
 insert along with the song lyrics from the album. What a great gift!

As soon as I saw Erica's notebook, I knew I needed one for myself! Back to Records
And Stuff I went, and was happy to find the Heart Dog & Butterfly and Fleetwood Mac
Rumors album cover notebooks. Sold! 

I'm using the Heart notebook as a jewelry journal, where I'm keeping notes
 and sketches while I write my jewelry book for North Light. The Fleetwood Mac 
one will be going to my best friend Nikki, who is a lifelong Fleetwood Mac fan. 

Well played John & Jill! Love your stuff!

Cassette Tape Art


I love art that has to do with music, so when I came across iri5 studio's 
artwork made from old cassette tapes, I knew I had to share them with you!
Made by Erika Iris, each artwork is made with cassette tape or film. Check out 
her website here.
