The Royal Norfolk Show

Posted by Julie Porter on Friday, June 28, 2013
Went to the Royal Norfolk Show yesterday and found some inspirational items there.  In the Flower tent they had a bag that had been constructed from leaves with lilies as the handles-now that is MY kind of recycling.  In the Art Exhibition an artist had used a saw as their "canvas" and painted on it.  As for the Woodland Crafts I was intrigued to see such master craftsmen and women at work and how they had turned a piece of willow or corn, among other mediums, into something practical and beautiful.  
All of these things have got me thinking about the link between art, recycling and nature and our connection with everything around us.  |A great day out and one that gave me some thinking time.

About Me

I am a keen make do and mender/recycler. I love crocheting too.  I have a "magpie eye" for anything sparkly, vintage or uber-cool!  I love live music, cups of tea ( I am so English!), and a cracking novel to read.
