Upcycled Fish Art

It's made from bottle caps and pull tabs from aluminum cans.

Cool.

I want one.

I am definitely showing my husband this and telling him to put those beer bottle caps and beer can tabs to good use!! 😂

I want one, too! (Although I already have a fish sculpture in my LR, AND a giant framed "fish" poster from the Waikiki Aquarium)

I have a couple of large aquariums with tropical fish and colorful tropical fish wall art, so that would fit right in at my house!

That is a great fish!

So much fun to look at!

@lolakimono Isn't it amazing how some people have the artistic eye to see a treasure out of discarded items. I always find it fascinating!

Perfect for our Tiki Bar. I love it.

I'm with you @Patriot3 ... Living proof that this whole 'upcycling' thing is way over-rated... Nothing from nothing is still nothing... While I'll admit that making this took a certain amount of creativity and probably patience, this isn't something I'd spend my time doing and isn't something I'd want on display. It's certainly not something I'd purchase...

I'm not into "fish art", but I guess I could see it hanging in a bait shop.

Looks a little fishy to me!

The artist did a nice, realistic job. Good repurpose of materials.

In the minority, I do not like things like beer bottle tops recycled into art objects!

@stevieb "...Nothing from nothing is still nothing...." Hilarious.... love the dry, cut-to-the-chase comment!

@ScarletDove I couldn't resist... I'm tired of hearing about 'up'-cycling. Sometimes it works, more often than not, though, junk is still junk...

@stevieb Hey kid, with you 100%...."...'up'-cycling" term is getting very old! My blue recyle bin is always full of up-cycling junk!
