Vinyl revival

I came across this sweet vintage record over at Three Potato Four's blog the other week. I think these old record sleeves make great wall art for kids' bedrooms, as well as providing hours of enjoyment, away from the TV. We pay regular visits to charity shops as a family and Savannah and Miles picked up a lovely vintage circus record on our last trip. I found these two original records within five minutes on etsy:


Vintage Let's be policemen record from Nana's Cottage House

Vintage Chinese nursery record by The Hamster and the Guppies

Vintage vinyl's upcycle possibilities seem endless. I've chosen a few examples of work by artists committed to re-using these defunct discs and covers, but I've really only just scratched the surface (ha!, ha!).

Have a look through your personal collection, I'm sure you'll find something to display, frame or even upcycle.
