Collage Art + Creative Reuse in Windsor, NC

Hi, all. I’m Laura, a collage artist and entrepreneur in Eastern North Carolina.

I create whimsical mixed-media work (mostly from reclaimed paper), and I’m also in the middle of opening RECYCLAMATION Thrift in Windsor, NC – a creative reuse space + community thrift store built around the idea that useful and beautiful things deserve a second life.

I joined because I miss intelligent, good-faith conversation – curiosity, nuance, and people who can disagree without being awful. My personal mantra is “Lean into the light.” My word for 2026 is PRESENCE.

My most recent collage – Recyclamation Rita – is attached.

I’m always up for conversations around creativity, small-town revitalization, reuse culture, publishing, spirituality, and cats who play baseball.
