From my fabric friend

Some lovely fabrics designed by Kristen Morkel  - available from her website called Designkist



 

The Ideas Forest moved...

to the Naspers building Foyer.  It will be there till the end of August.  If anyone knows of a School/Orphanage/Home that might benefit from having this do let me know.  I will install it again for free.

Found: along 200 metre's of coastline










And some fishes...

The Forest for Media24's Team Talk conference

7 trees cut from polyboard (2 to 2.7m's high)
400kg's of magazines and newspapers
Buckets of flour and water paste
50m's of leaf bunting

And a forest stretching 8 metres down the passageway entrance to the Arabella Ballroom at Hermanus


Boring passage


The trees looking a little small


Bulking up and mounting on boxes to give extra height.  Start spreading the mags and papers out to create the forest floor.  The first bits of leaf bunting go up strung between the trees and across  the passage.


The paintings on the walls got wrapped in newspaper.



And now there is a forest in the passage.


Final bit - hanging birds on the trees that will have ideas written on them by conference attendees.
