I am becoming more and more intrigued by the whole subject of Beach Cleaning and what to do with all the stuff collected. Now I have started to do the 2 minute Beach Clean, I am shocked at just how much rubbish there is on my local beaches. Being creative with what I find is essential for me to quell the pain of it all. What are we doing to our environment! AAAaaarghhhh! Gripped by this new creative and environmental obsession I need a way to record the journey, so I have created another Blog dedicated to Beach Clean Art.
First some rubbings taken from a piece of what I think is fibre-glass.
Then playing with arranging this with other pieces
So much information on this small piece
I am so tempted to phone the number to see if it is still operational.
Colour, shape, texture, human story behind each piece and how they ended up on Charmouth beach. The years involved, the many humans involved in the creation of each piece………
Ravelry
That piece of white plastic with the phone number is interesting. I wonder what it was for.

ooh I like the idea of a 2minute clean – I’m always shocked by the estuary waters near Olhao in Portugal, if I took a bag and gloves everytime I went out I could start to make a difference rather than just complaining. Thanks for the inspiration

You have truly made my day Becky! Martin Dorey, who started the idea is a genius! You can see lots of his clips on You Tube and he has a Facebook Page where you can post pictures of what you collect. It is astounding just how much can be collected in 2 mins even when the beach, at first glance, looks trash free. Go Becky! ❤
