Inspiring Escapes

Here are some lovely photos from our October Creativity Central, where we worked more on our dioramas and shared some of our past projects. Each diorama represents a secret haven for each participant, that we can visit just by opening the box! First we did a Q&A to help define what our respective “haven” might be, and then we created them in 3D! Here are the amazing results:

As you look at Allyson’s diorama below, see the luscious folds of the scarf that Allyson wove herself. These folds make up the sea floor along the bottom of Allyson’s box. See also the lace she made herself, that has become the “contrail” of the gold airplane. The airplane you see soaring inside is gold foil wrapped around the clay plane that Allyson made by hand last time. On the left side of Allyson’s diorama are secret wooden Japanese letters with special meaning for her and her husband. Allyson wanted her diorama to show movement, and it sure does!

Another Creativity Central participant, Joanie, shared her magical diorama, below:

See the gorgeous handmade papers on the box exterior, and family photos and other lovely elements, so artistically and meaningfully arranged by Joanie, within. The colors and textures are gorgeous!

I also want to show off Joanie’s AWESOME necklace form a prior Creativity Central class – it is so beautiful!
