How awesome is this? Earlier today artist Christine Finley covered several NYC dumpsters in fashionable wallpaper as part of her Wallpapered Dumpsters Project, and tomorrow she is doing the same in DUMBO (25 Jay St)!
What a lovely idea. I especially love that this “polite graffiti” is, well, polite and girlie (which proves that street art can be!). So, thank you, Finley, for make everyday walking about in NYC a little sweeter!

i like it… living in philly with wonderful “polite graffiti” mosaics from the early 90′s all over my neighborhood, it does make things a little sweeter. even the economist had a recent article about similar approaches in pitsburg!
