I want to make a cool hippy-ish craft…?
I live in the boonies so I am surrounded by outdoor materials such as pine needles, rocks, birch bark, leaves, flowers, feathers, twigs, clay, etc… I’m wondering what type of crafts I can make with such things. Any ideas would be awesome
Thanks.
pine needle baskets, fairy houses, macrame using twigs and feathers in it, smooth oval rocks could be painted to look like animals, clay you can form into ceramics, then bake in a brick enclosure layered with sawdust, and set on fire then covered with a large metal plate, or done in a metal trash can in the reku method. bird houses, You need to see if you can find a copy of Alicia Bay Laurel ’s book Living on the earth, it was a hippy handbook of crafting and living in the woods, i loved it, even gave recipes for glazes for ceramics, and home birthing of your child. you would just love it. i used to hand bulid ceramic boxes and such using leaves to press into it to make the surface design, you could do that, or you can press flowers and leaves and use them on the fronts of greeting cards or in home made paper, for pulp get a end roll of news print from a local small newspaper, they often sell the end of rolls because its a pain when you are running a paper and the roll is too short to finish all the pages. just soak the newsprint in water, then blend in an old blender, and spread on a screen and let dry, you can mix your flower petals and dry leaves in by pouring your paper on the screen, then laying the leaves or petals on it, they should be dry before you do, then blend up a little bit of tissue paper and spread that over your newsprint and petals. good luck. nice to have a hippy sister at heart, im from the original bunch, oh, and sticks , string and flat disks of ceramic makes great windchimes, or even orange juice can lids, if you use frozen juices,
