Combination weekend

The pictures for this weekend were going to be two separate parts, but I was out late last night so I figured I might as well combine them today. So, here we go:

As part of the Earth Day activities on campus, a bunch of random things were taken and made into statues on one of the lawns.
Part one, Saturday's picture, was this big metal bird. I think they used different chair legs and such to make him.


The second part, today's pictures, were the big island construct they made from everything from recycling bins to file cabinets, to more chairs.


I also got a close up of one of the littler pieces on the island. I really liked these little orange flowers :)

Happy Earth Day!

Happy Earth Day, everyone! Hope you're all having a lovely green day :)

Today's picture is my poptab bracelet, which my friend Molly made for me. I thought it was appropriate, since they've been recycled into some fun jewelry.


If you're interested in finding out how to make poptab things, here's a great tutorial I found over at WikiHow. If you're feeling more adventurous, Craftster has a page of 40 Eco-friendly projects for Earth Day’s 40th Anniversary, and Etsy has an older article featuring 10 Eco-Friendly Tutorials.
