Noren, felt snakes, and a mobile

Some leftovers from my watercolor class have become a noren (Japanese door curtain) and a mobile. Also dug out some mustard-colored roving and felted it to make a hanger for some cloth pouches. (The latter will hold index cards for a research project I'm doing.)

A noren hangs in the doorway of a closet in order to use the "see-through" paintings I made for class -- I have to look through them in order to walk through the doorway.
