A while back I had gotten the idea to make the roses out of tubes for valentines day. I remembered there was a way to make roses out of ribbon and when I was cutting the tubes open I saw the tubes were pretty much rubber ribbon
The tree I had the idea for a long time but just didn't have enough rims to make it till I started working at a Recyclery and there was a junk yard to pick though all the rims and bike parts I needed
Ive continued using tubes and other bike parts that would be laying around destined for the junk yard to make jewelry furniture and sculptors out of recycled bike parts.
