Good to Be Square

As we excitedly look forward to crafting with toilet paper core at this Saturday's KBCC session, here is an interesting eco idea.

When Shigeru Ban came up with this design, it makes it just a little harder to be wasteful with toilet paper because a tug is met with resistance. This is one part of the eco 3R strategies - reduce.

For this Saturday's KBCC, the regular round ones will do.

KBCC #08: Drink Can Fun!

It was a cosy & relaxed afternoon @Pauseability last Saturday. Michelle & Isabelle came in  a little late, but just in time before we made too much progress in our drink can weaving project. 

After some squeaking, twisting, twitching, coiling... Wala! Check out our drink-can-bloom!

Then we decided to arrange them into a sculpture... Then came the idea of using them as our X'mas decoration for December's KBCC! Details as follows:
