What exactly is altered art? It’s merely turning a familiar or found object into an objet d’art. This can
be achieved in many ways — by adding paint, papers, charms, ribbon, fibers, and anything else you can think of. The sky’s the limit. You can alter just about anything — an old book, a cigar box, shipping tag, playing card, wooden box, or any object that you would like to transform. Check out the gallery section for inspiration and to see what other artists have created. There are more than 60 projects including altered books, tags, microscope slides, boxes, bottles, slide mounts, and much more. Then you’ll be so excited you won’t be able to wait to try your own altered art project. The technique section has more ideas for adding interest to your work. The project section has step-by-step instructions for particular types of altered art. There’s also a section on tools and supplies.Whatever you do, have fun, stay loose, and get started. Become one of the many fans of altered art!
