I spent the best part of a full day jet washing and who knew – the caravan is indeed white!!
I’m now at the stage of wondering whether to paint it a jolly eyecatching colour or leave it white, theres a strip down the side perfect to put a vinyl sign with the Butterfly park name on and I could get vinyl’s of my drawings to go onto the white van which might be more inkeeping.
I’ve won quite a few old butterfly books on ebay now, really do need to get to more charity shops though. As I’m self funding everything I have a limit of £3 each on books but I do seem to have found some real beauties within that price range.
These will all be used as part of the little library within the centre, some to make into artists books for display purposes and some to use as part of the mini reference library itself.
I’m going to Liverpool Community college in the next 2 weeks to give a presentation to the tourism students who will be designing paraphernalia and re-branding the butterfly park as a centre for tourism. I’m really quite excited to see what we can all come up with to be honest and hoping it will be something that is ultimately useable and not just project based for the benefit of the course.
