Little Drifters


Booooooom! & The Vancouver Sun have sponsored a great project called Little Drifters. Participant were to gather pieces of driftwood, twigs, leaves, berries, dandelions, pine cones, feathers, pretty much anything that can be considered 'natural.' (No plastic, metal or paper, etc.) They then construct a little boat using only these natural materials. They met up at Trout Lake, in Vancouver and let their creations set sail.
