Let’s celebrate with flowers!
2024
We created a flower from trash picked up daily. Different flower prompts were provided. Click to link to see all the details.
HERE’S THE FULL SCOOP!
2023
We created a concertina book from cardboard cereal boxes and following daily prompts created small collages from bits of single-use plastic, scraps of fabric or some other small non recyclable.

2022
We created a book from single-use plastic. Each day in April we upcycled a tiny piece of plastic meant for the trash and small whimsical artwork by stitching it onto a page for the book. When all the pages were complete we stitched them together to form a soft book.

Mending seems to be all the rage these days. At least according to the social media I consume and newsletters I read. And I have to admit, I’m loving it!
But what if you applied mending to non fabric items.
What if you applied mending to trash?!
HERE’S what we did!

April showers bring May flowers… let’s change things up and start April with flowers!
