Making Papers For Collage & Using Up Old Paint

I don't know about you but I have a lot of "old" paint in bottles that are dried up or almost empty. Today I try to make a dent in using up some of those old paints by making papers I can add more layers to later or I can use for collage. It's a fun way to use up old supplies and it's also a great way to practice loosening up with your layers. I hope you are inspired to give it a go. :-) Follow me on Socials :-) Instagram -   / laurierichardsonhaley   TikTok -   / laurie.richardson.haley   Pinterest -   / lauriehaley   Sharing my love of mixed media art in my funky, whimiscal style of creating mixed media art journals, tags, canvases and more.
