Beautiful Re-use. I get a kick out of making something from my neighbors garbage and then them wanting to buy it back from me.

Hi Cigarbox Friends!

I'm Shelley, born and raised on the Gulf Coast of Mississippi and now residing in Rotterdam, The Netherlands. I play the Ukulele, Guitar, the Singing Saw and i'm reaaaaal good at the Washtub Bass! I'm an  artist & performer and use inventive recycling in most of my work. I also have my own shop in Rotterdam, The Jumping Flea.
