Anonymous asked: Hi there: I just found your website and am totally inspired. I'm a grade 3-4 teacher in Vancouver and am wondering what you could recommend (that's easy and doesn't requier too many materials) for those little danactive yogurt bottles. I have 24 students and I have these bottles piling up. They are the yellow ones that are about 6-7 cm in height. Ideas?? Thanks again! Jess Rosenblatt
Hi Jess, Thanks so much! I’d love to help, I’ll see if I can find some of the yellow Danactive bottles over the next couple days and try to come up with some ideas for you. Can you leave me your email address or email me at elizaplumley@gmail.com so we can talk more?
Its starting to look more filled in! I barely notice my subway/bus/train ride to work anymore, I actually look forward to it.
I made this one as a birthday present for my dear friend and co-worker Teresa at the Holiday Inn. English isn’t her first language and we often have trouble speaking to each other and understanding but we never give up trying. She’s a sweetheart and has always been a big help in collecting materials for my art projects throughout the years and so I thought I’d show my appreciation by making one for her so she can see what it is I do with the pop tabs, plastic creamers, twist ties, etc. firsthand.
This is the first time I tried trapping a vegetable net in the frame as a border and I’m pretty excited about it.
I got a new phone recently and the camera is way better…

Hi, I’ve been working on this piece since I was in my first year studying textiles in 2008 (pictured above), I work on it every now and then whenever I feel like doing some embroidery. The goal is to eventually have all the pink fabric filled in with stitches. Lately I’ve been bringing it with me for my commute to the Holiday Inn, it makes the journey fly by :) …the pictures below are of how it looks at this point in time.
