Gleaning at the City Dump #100

Wow...a hundred blogs about digging in the city dump!   I hadn't expected that I'd have this much to say about my work at the dump for these past six months.  I'm beginning to wind down from the "production" of any more "trash" pieces in my studio at this point.  In fact, I'm creating a pdf file of all my completed glean work, along with photos, sizes, prices, etc, and sending it to Amy, the administrator of our program...all due by this coming Monday, so that tags can be made to hang with each piece at our show beginning on Sept. 14.   I will, however, still make a "few" (very few) more visits to the Transfer Station to gather up any last minute kinds of treasures that I may be able to use down the road for more of my assemblage work.   


And, speaking of treasures...old drawers from cabinets and desks make great boxes for my work.  Most of the drawers that I find are often way too big for the kind of work I like to do...like these:

This was a much better assortment of drawers...much smaller, more workable for me.  These almost look like the drawers that came out of those old library card catalog cabinets.   These drawers are great finds!!
