For *Art from Trash* / *Creative Challenge* enthusiasts.

Kia Ora!

I have a bagful of these items; (see images below)

(1) Milk bottle twist-top caps
(2) Plastic measuring cups (~3 assorted varieties of 20ml, 30ml and 40ml. Paper-clip in the image to give an idea of their respective sizes.)

I don't have any credible answer to *why?* and *for what?* have I been
saving these. I just kept on saving them for last 5-6 years. It has now got to a point that I will have to dump this *trash collection* very soon, if there aren't any takers.

My reluctance to trash it, stems from an idea that this material could
serve as a very useful resource for a piece of 3D artwork, or elegant
sculpture / showpiece. Doing so in creative ways, I think, would potentially save our environment from all this trash getting into landfills and/or the ocean.

Ideally, if there's any student of a *multi-media* course, this would serve as a compelling option for a *creative challenge* project as a part of the course.

Whatever your persuasion, if you fancy doing something creative from a bagful of trash, please let me know.

You are welcome to take the full bag or any part of it.
Bag or paper-clip not included. 😆😄🤭

Pick up Tawa, on an as-is-where-is basis.

Some Choice News!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
