Nice idea, but before you start getting a standing ovation you need a compliance check. First, inventory the items: make sure you have a record of how each stapler, mug, and toner can got out of the office. No rogue pickups or “found” items that might be misappropriated. Second, check the material list against environmental regulations—toner can contain hazardous chemicals, so you can’t just mix it with paint or leave it exposed. Third, verify that the artwork doesn’t violate any intellectual property or branding guidelines; a coffee mug with the company logo can’t be repurposed for a display without permission. Fourth, document the entire process: who approved the reuse, what safety steps were taken, and how the final piece will be disposed of or displayed. Finally, audit the budget—did you pay for the supplies or did you pull them from inventory? If everything lines up, you’ll have both artistic freedom and a clean audit trail.
