Write a guide to using staples as art.
Staples are tried and true workhorse of the business industry, but why limit yourself when you could open up your world and turn staples into art?

Collage is the simplest method of using staples for art. You can combine all kinds of other household items, outdoor finds, paints, and other art supplies to create a unique mashup of all your favorite pieces or pieces that fit the themes you're trying to express. You can glue and bend the staples to get them into the right shapes or staple them onto canvases, papers, or other mediums.

Next, try using the staples as tools for your art. You can use the ends to scrape tiny lines in paint, or the sides for wider marks. Simply dip the staple into the paint for odd texture effects (this works best with thick applications). You can even use it to scuff or alter the surface of other materials like clay!

Next, you can melt down or weld staples to create strange contraptions or other artistic visions if you're skilled with welding tools!

Try incorporating the stapler itself for some added uniqueness.
