CREATIVE REUSE PROJECT
Fractal Carpets

Using any large quantity of a repetitive object (take out utensils, straws, dominos, pattern blocks, stale pasta) you can make a fractal carpet. This can be a one time activity, an activity that you work on for multiple days, a temporary activity or by glueing it all down you can make it permanent. Not only is this a great way to see, grow and change patterns, but it’s also a soothing, meditative activity for calm-down or quiet times.
Suggested Reused Materials: Paper, card stock or cereal boxes, fabric, glue, scissors
