Winter Walk Collage
Our second day of Christmas
craft fun was on Saturday. We were away for the weekend in Ironbridge and went
for a gorgeous mountain/woodland walk to enjoy the good spell of weather. On
our way we collected various bits and bobs of interest: holly and ivy leaves,
autumn leaves that had fallen, white and red berries, feathers, sticks, stones,
and twigs. When we returned to the youth hostel we arranged them into collages
on a piece of black card. We didn't stick them down, we just took a photo when
we were happy with our composition (tipping it all off after snapping), so that
we could take it in turns to create a fresh picture from scratch with the same
materials. Eilir started with a decorative design, but after I created a snow
scene featuring a fruit tree, he decided to make one where the holly
represented grass and the white berries and stones made a snowman shape.
Endless fun and cheap too! :-)
