The next task is to buy cheap articles from Pound Land or the equivalent and spend no more than £5.
I brought some lolly sticks and some twine to tie them together.
 |
| First I did some finger knitting |
Added broken lolly sticks
 |
| Tied the sticks together with the twine |
 |
| Pile them on top of each other |
 |
| Pile them again |
 |
| Split and one end and tie them together |
 |
| This time split the sticks at both ends and tie them together |
 |
Twist the structure and looks like an interesting shape.
This is what I am going to do with my lolly sticks. |
 |
They look so pale and boring. I'm going to baked them in the oven
to see what happens to the shape and colour. |
 |
| Here they are after 10 minutes at 220c. The colour is changing. |
 |
These are after 13 minutes and they have started to burn and smoke.
The colour is so much better for me to work with. |
 |
Put the sticks together so they are graded with the pale in the middle.
Started to play around with the finished sample making shapes and
photographing them. |
 |
| Close up of them. |
 |
Another view.
This is one task I really did enjoy and happy with the result

Very impressed with what you did with the lolly sticks. Railway tracks etc.,
ReplyDeleteWho'd have thought of baking them? Very creative!
