96-well mice - smile

In our lab plastic trash of one-way consumables is abundant. It is a pity that this pure PP-trash does not find its way to recycling (I asked).





















The smiley is a Christmas party product of our group in 2017.

Sack & leather again

Played around a bit with colour.

Upcycling Easter

While I was working on these traditional Easter eggs ->


 





my daughter reminded me that I might as well do something with my favored material. Here it is - the new dressing for goose eggs. Happy Easter!

Quick pouches

... from felt and fabric.

Potatosack installation at Haverkamp, the 2nd

Added more dots & rings today.

The day 1 - installations are still in good shape.

 

Smile

They are 3D :)

Sack & Leather

I have had some applause for my fleamarket treasure, so I made more from potato sack sheets and soft leather.

Black and white

Here is a greeting from last Christmas: Friends provides tree nets - I had never had black before! Thank you guys!

Dots&Rings at Haverkamp, Day 1

Today starts an open air ad for "Save the potato sack" at Münster's art-and-scene quarter Haverkamp. This is a trial installation to check how the material fairs outdoors.  It will be monitored regularly to check who gets to it first: nature or party-goers.


















It includes a collection box for one-way nets. So, please donate your nets!

Potato sack's very own collection bin

It is now possible to collect one-way nets and throw them in a separate trash bin at Münster's recycling facility Eulerstrasse. Thank you for your support, AWM!

Sitting room soccer

I was looking for a present for my godson and came across the instructions to an indoor ball. I used stiff potato net for stiffening it a bit.
You leave a small opening on one side and put an air balloon in.

Two sides

Fresh start into 2020 with a round bag. I am grateful to new net collectors/donators who made it possible. It was still not sufficient material of one colour so there are two views 😉.

Have wonderful holidays!

(Well, no upcycling this time - just felt like bobbin lacing for a while.

Fleamarket treasure

This yarn called me from among a load of junk in a fleamarket hall. I liked the colour so much I have been doing these potato sack pattern fillings ever since - I am at No. 5 now.

More stitchery

It is a mood thing - currently I enjoy the mindless filling of potato sack holes.

Just for the fun of it

 Better watch out for the big holes before!

Ocean future

Got some doll eyes and brought the animals alive...

Plastic lace

Just taught myself to make "lace" ornaments from a potato sack. Boring work as the stitching takes forever, but it has potential.

Back to meditation

For lack of material, which is a good thing considering ..., I am back to mindless hole-filling. The base is a stiff plastic sheet from a potato sack.
