A few weeks back I had the pleasure to teach a workshop for the teens in our township at
I was HAPPY that it was a full class and the teens came ready to create...
I set up my samples
I shared with the students how to fold and create interesting sculptures from the books.
Happy that the library had so many interesting books to share with us. Love teaching this class and recycling books into these interesting forms.
once I finished sharing the skills they needed, loved seeing the students getting creative..... |
now time to some show off what they created......
love that they follow directions so well and then take it and put their own spin on it to make their book art truly unique.... |
so glad I brought the pom poms..... |
its amazing how quick some kids are and how creative they can be... |
loved how a few pom poms made these books come to life..... |
LOVE seeing HAPPY kids...... |
how awesome is this one???? |
Well I must say it was a great workshop and glad I got to share my Love of altering books with the kids from my town. Hoping to have some more classes in the future.
Thanks for coming and creating beautiful book art kids.....
xoxo
Love that happy face one! I love the look of these, but not sure I could bring myself to do that to a book!
ReplyDeletethanks Holly!!!!! but the books would have been tossed or recycled....so we gave them a 2nd life.....
Deletev.true! You wouldn't believe how many books I have seen out in people's recycling to be burnt down and turned into new paper or whatever they do. Of course I have to steal them!
