How about using the dried vine to make a garden trellis? I try to incorporate my
gardening into art projects and visa versa. Or is the vine suitable for making
baskets??

Subject: Burlap

Hello all,

I'm putting together my lesson plans for the upcoming year, and am trying
to think of ideas using burlap. I have a ton of dusty old burlap in a
variety of colours and can't really think of what to do with it. I thought
of soft sculptures (which might be fun, because I know that my students
were really taken with Oldenberg's Giant Hamburger) but I am afraid that
since it is such a loose weave that it might be hard to sew and stuff. If
anyone has any interesting ideas for burlap, I would really appreciate
them. I teach grade 7 and 8. (Another thing I have a lot of - and can't
immediately think of a use for - is a sort of really thin bamboo which is
twisted into a spiral; it might actually be some sort of dried vine)

Thanks,

Laura
