arts and crafts day

I was asked to provide a display of "arty" stuff for a get together in the local library of people who were looking for new directions in their lives. The main part of the day was of course concentrated on careers and job seeking but there was room for a bit of light hearted stuff as well.
With the exception of the silk painting almost everything I made was recycled either from bits and pieces I already had or from charity shop buys which were dismantled and re-used in another form.
Some of the "pebbles" for instance are made from baby wipes used for cleaning paintbrushes etc., and the "leather" is scrumpled up tissue paper painted and attached to felt with Bondaweb
