Altered Everything – Beth Cote

Beth Cote and friends teach us how to alter everything from small boxes and matchboxes to large books and globes. Here you will find journal ideas to feed your creativity and projects that inspire you to break out of the ordinary. Beth encourages you to push your creative envelope as you explore the immense potential of altered art. Altered books and altered art seem to fall into two categories: personalized and personal. Personalized art alters something to fit your creative style, while the art of the personal infuses a work with meaning, a message or an emotion. Each category has its benefits and pleasures. Altered 104 – Everything! offers both kinds of projects and ways to make the personalized the personal.
