We have lots of ideas for Nature Art in this nature connector, but these ideas are all for creating art from nature out in the natural environment.

If it’s windy, you’d prefer to bring your nature art inside, you want it to last a bit longer, or you just want to do something different, how about making your own glue and making some biodegradable nature art?

Thank you so much to Johanna and her gorgeous daughter Mila for sharing this great idea with us. They took our ‘Make a Nature Rainbow’ idea to a whole new level!

After doing a nature walk and collecting natural taonga to use as resources for their art, they settled down inside to create it.

They mixed flour and water together to make glue, and then glued their flowers onto reused cardboard. The artwork is stunning, and after they have finished making it and have taken photos, it will eventually be able to be composted and returned to the earth. What an awesome idea!

It is amazing art using nature’s beauty, as well as being low cost and zero waste!

Below you can see our Kids Greening Taupō student leader Katherine’s incredible natural art. She made her biodegradable art into a costume too! It’s beautiful!

Thank you so much Johanna, Mila, and Katherine for sharing your gorgeous creations. We think you are very clever.

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
