video link, felt, basket making and pottery

I was sent this link by my friend Olive, it shows some cottage industries in Ireland. A felt maker, potter, millinar and basket maker. I would love to have their life styles. I hope the link works outside of Ireland because it is from RTE and I know when I want to watch links from the UK stations they are blocked. Anyway hope it works!

This is an outfit made from recycled material for The Junkoture competition in Ireland. I cant show the full dress as I dont want to sow the students face.

Fun with Felt

These are some of the test pieces my students made this week. This project is working very well even one of the boys who hates art made a piece.

Here are a few links:
