Lint

After laundering a blanket or a load of new towels there is something oddly satisfying about cleaning the lint trap in the dryer. There's heft to the lint that makes it fun to peel of the screen. And, depending on what was in the dryer, the colors can be really pretty.

I've always secretly wanted to find some sort of art project to do with that kind of lint. I've actively resisted collecting it.

You should read Cat's Eye by Margaret Atwood. For a whole variety of reasons, one of which is there is an artist who does stuff with lint in the book. But I don't remember anything more than that because it's been a long time since I've read the book.
