DIY “I Knit So I Won’t Kill People” Glitter Pillow Tutorial. I posted a similar pillow Donatella did here (also link to a pattern with a similar quote in knitted form) using the same freezer paper stencil. Donatella’s paint recomendations are always spot on because she actually washes whatever she makes and after she washed this the glitter paint was still there! Tutorial from inspiration & realisation here.

“Illegal Logging” installation made out of recycled paper by Julie Dodd

Our ancient trees are disappearing rapidly and are greatly under threat from Illegal Logging. Deforestation means more carbon dioxide released into the air, which adds to our problem of Climate Change. But this isn’t the only problem it’s causing, it funds other criminal activities, threatens the lives of indigenous people and could cause irreversible damage to planet and animal life surrounding those trees.

DIY Book Pages Made into Beads. Lots of tutorials about winding paper beads and sealing them all over. I posted a really good tutorial on getting specific paper bead shapes and sealing them with varnish here. Photograph above from Helen Lonsdale here.
