We wanted to have a special activity for the kids who are part of the Eco Club at school. I organized a session of accessory making from re-used items. We will be using old inner tubes, leftover yarn, and some small found objects( bottle caps?). We'll be making cuffs,The group is aged 8 to 14 -- a wide range. The photos here show what I made as samples. Tune in tomorrow to see what the kids have made!
this one is very versatile -- you can fold it and twist it to make it look really cool!
(special thanks to my wonderful jewelry class teacher Tosca Teran for her inspiration -- and to the book
(I didn't buy this book when it came out because I wasn't really a fan of the cover. But this book is fabulous!)And also a very special thank you to Mountain Equipment Coop for the donation of lots of used bicycle inner tubes -- we really appreciate it!
