Welcome to #MadeItMonday, where I post something Iβve made in the previous week, and where you can join in and post something you made too! The rules are easy: post a pic somewhere of something youβve made in the last week (ish; letβs say in the last month as the hard-and-fast) and tag it. Sit back and enjoy scrolling through all the beautiful things weβve collectively created, and celebrate the fact that humans can be awesome!
So, if you’ve been following along on social media (Which, why? It’s the holiday season! Disconnect and feed your mental health and your soul! π π π ) then you’ll have noted that I was particularly quiet for a few weeks after Christmas – and of course, I talked last week about the fact that I was away at ‘Camporee’, an outdoor ed type thingy for Pathfinders, which is a global religious Scouts-type thingy. As well as appreciating deeply the disconnect from the troubles of the world for two weeks, it was also super fun and energising to get to make so much *physical* stuff for a change. I even used a drill and cable ties to make a cardboard-box dog costume (for reasons). If I can find anyone who took a photo of it, I’ll post as another Made-It Monday π
Today, though, I’m taking the easy route, which is to say I’m not digging out any of the photos of any of the other major things I made at Camporee, and instead I’m just screencapping a couple of my Instagram pics, because effort.
So today, you get the banners I designed for our activity π We printed them at I think 1.5m x 3m (just under 5 x 10 feet) on canvas and they looked super impressive and profesh. One went up above the stage (which was totally not built over a trailer because the proper one we were supposed to have got cancelled, nope, not at all) and one went up just outside our front fence at the entry.
The scale is hard to grasp, but in that bottom photo – the night shot – the poles to the left are 3m (nearly 10 feet) tall. So you know. This is a Sizeable Affair π
So yar. There we go. Banners, made for Camporee. Tune in next Monday for more Camporee-related things, because I am totally going to mine that for Made-It Mondays for as long as I possibly can π π π
And now, what have you made this week? Donβt forget to tag your contribution, or even better, leave a link in the comments!! I love seeing what inspiring things other people have madeΒ π π π
