The Found Object in Textile Art.

Textile artists have always used found objects and recently, given the current financial and social climate, the practice has become even more popular.

Mundane objects such as CD cases can be used to create stunning pieces of art, teabags have been used to create large installations, biscuits used for printing and old paper transformed into ballet shoes.
