Art in the Ordinary

I saw this idea on Pinterest.  We have no lack of random items hiding in our house so we found a purpose for them.  We both searched for some items and after narrowing them down we cut up a box and he began gluing them in.  He could attach whatever he wanted, wherever he wanted.  The idea was that the box would be viewed from above, but there were really no rules to it.  

 He originally put the bike chain on the side of the box but I tried to subtly suggest that for such an interesting piece, it might not be the best place to showcase it.  He ended up moving it to the base of the box.  He also really liked the glue threads and decided to leave them in.  He even incorporated them by suspending an item from them almost as though it were caught in a spiders web.

 During the final stage of spray painting he decided to take out a couple items such as the purple pom pom because it just absorbing the paint.  He also removed the large stack of coins because they were too heavy and kept falling over.

 He picked a gold spray and went wild.


 I personally love the chain, tank, key, iron man, shells and the crayon covered in tacks.


 Caught in a web????
