About Carrie's Art

The idea of using dryer lint as a medium was stumbled upon when a friend from college, in joking around about Carrie's resourcefulness and creativity, commented in a conversation that she could make anything out of anything and reaching into his pocket pulled out some pocket lint and said she could create something out of the pocket lint.  That idea got Carrie to thinking about how God does that with people and the junk in people's lives.  He takes the discarded and seemingly useless and creates a thing of beauty.
