Thank you. Forgot to say that Teddy comes from a charity shop - I wanted to include some recycling in the process, and also wanted to show that you can use some totally unexpected materials. That's the reason behind the keys, too, but they are way too big for this little tree. I don't like them there but perhaps I will use them on a bigger tree.
Anyway, the homework assignment is done, and I am still coming up with more and more ideas :D Funny, really, how the mind learns to see certain shapes in everything.

Thank you all for your kind words. I hope my sister in law likes my work as well.

Also this week, I did a project in honor of mitochondrial disease awareness for a friend's little boy. His picture will go in the frame as well.

I just made this. It will be stitched on some black felt and hang in the window so that the birds don't fly into it. The idea is that it needs to be dark for the birds but it can be nice and colourful on the inside where I see it. :)
