We had great fun this morning rummaging around at
Reverse Garbage in Marrickville. It's an enormous ware-house stuffed full of industrial discards, like empty plastic containers, wood off-cuts, cardboard, fabric samples, buttons, shiny paper, colorful shredded paper...the list goes on. It's great for cheap materials for creative projects, there's even a sculpture display showing some very interesting artwork that has been made out of 'rubbish'. I went with a friend and we spent most of the time opening up dusty boxes and peering inside. We both bought some gorgeous hessian coffee bean sacks ($1.50) for sack racing at children's parties. It's definitely an eclectic mix of new and old, good and not so good, but it's well worth a visit if you are in need of some inspiration and if (like us) you have a good sense of humour you'll have fun thinking up possible uses for some of the more unusual items!
