Shannon Green
I have been making stuff out of other stuff for the past 32 years. I teach classes and also upload the occasional video on my YouTube channel: byShannonGreen. I am passionate about repurposing materials that might otherwise be discarded and paper is my material of choice. I use any kind of paper that is likely destined for the recycle bin. I transform it into something useful, beautiful, meaningful, interesting, or just plain fun! Breathing new life into discarded paper by recycling, upcycling or repurposing in a creative way is so much more than just eco-friendly crafting. My focus is on the joy you can get from the process of simply creating something out of nothing.
