Stick Sculpture
Today's
Snack: Cut carrots and celery into
sticks, and run them through cucumber rounds and tomato half-circle slices
until you make a pleasing sculpture. Then eat your art! Drink a cup of cocoa
and stir it with a different kind of stick: a cinnamon stick.
-------------------------
Supplies:
Be outside, in nature; autumn is a great time for this
Collect fallen sticks and branches, and pretty leaves
Find two tree trunks that are close
together. Then wedge, pile and lean fallen sticks and branches between them at
different angles.
Decorate the
branches by poking pretty leaves onto the smaller twigs sticking out at angles.
You can add other
"found" materials from outside to add interest.
Leave your work
of art in place and imagine that others will come by and believe that it all
came together all by itself!
