Old, damaged, unwanted surfboards. Instead of being dumped they are being given a new life as canvas thanks to the Recycled Surfboards Art Project.

This great initiative is run by Jayme Noe, a surf shop owner from Cocoa Beach, Florida. His idea is simple, save old surfboards, give them to artists and board repair specialists together with much needed funding and turn them into works of art.

Have a look at www.recycledsurfboards.com and some of the creations of various artists that are working on this project.

If you happen to have an old board why not recycle and get creative? Kitschy and sweet!
