Fodder includes hay, straw, silage, compressed and pelleted feeds, oils and mixed rations, and sprouted grains and legumes (such as bean sprouts, fresh malt, or spent malt). Most animal feed is from plants, but some manufacturers add ingredients to processed feeds that are of animal origin.
I am so incredibly blessed to be attending Fodder School this year. I do not have a mixed media background, but I feel in love with junk journal making in March and here I am, making Fodder and getting ready to make my first of many Fodder Keepers. Wendy and Tiffany, our leaders and inspiring teachers, are absolutely fabulous. Their love for and excitement about creating is so contagious! I think if I had to done up Fodder School in a few words it would be, "Fodder making, creating, is not unlike interpretive dance in that you are also using your hands and eyes, heart and soul." I can't go a day without it anymore! Thank you, Tiffany and Wendy!
Just getting into the world of fodder making - enjoying Fodder School lessons...going along at my own speed...learning from fabulous instructors & all the creativity shared as well as helpful comments from other students. I'll be making use of my art, paper, and fabric...supplies!
What gorgeous books, Wendy! Just three weeks into Fodder School, I can't get over how much I have gotten out of it already. Painting watercolor botanicals for the first time in my life, and ones that I feel good enough about to put them on Instagram. Wendy and Tiffany are both amazing artists and fabulous teachers, which I knew going into the course. The bonus, not completely unexpected but still a wonder to behold, is the work and inspiration of my fellow students, the unbelievably creative and talented people who have signed up for the fodder journey. I am daily blown away by the gorgeous work but also the generous spirits, encouragement and camaraderie. Thank you, Tiffany and Wendy, for creating this marvelous program.
That answers the question of can you have too much fodder. The answer is NO. Feeling good that I am not a hoarder. I am a fodder keeper and I am not alone. 👩🏾🎨
Ah I haven’t had time to make the fodder keeper, but I really enjoyed making the botanical fodder in the 1st part of the month. Love the course concept and all the buzzing energy for all kinds of fodder shapes and motives in the community.
I am loving Fodder School! It really does get your creative juices flowing. Love seeing everyone's works of art. I just finished my Fodder Keeper the other day and it was so fun to make. Now I am going to make more fodder to put inside.
I've been collecting fodder for so many years without knowing it was collage fodder. I use photo books with those plastic sliders inside.. works well for me: I have 12 or so of them. :)
Same! I have 45 years of "stuff" in envelopes and bags and boxes and binders. Cutting my own work into shapes and pieces for later use, so technically it's always been "collage" "fodder."
@@tonyadoughty That is surely the fun part of it.. collecting to hav a stash available. Just sold most of my vellum today though as I don't use it too often; just keeping the ones I really like and some blank ones :)
I love this! I love making books and messing around with watercolors, so... it fits. I came by way of Sketchbook Revival, by the way. I wanted to let you know that the link to your website has typos and does not go where it should. :D
I signed up for Fodder School one recently but I don’t like making art that looks too cute or ‘pretty.’ I guess I will have to invent my own way of making fodder.
Am trying ur free 'sampler' week? sorry might be diff name. I am fairly frustrated as that platform ['teachable'?] not want to 'let me in'.... while i have a.group.that i greatly adore on that same platform!?.of course it now [at a mentally challenging 65] occurs to me that i should be presenting this elsewhere! 😭🙈🤷🙋💜💋💐 i do appreciate what/how.u do! 😁
Ephemera means “transitory.” Ephemeral. Temporary. So yes, some collage fodder may be temporary, but it doesn’t have to be. The term “ephemera” is used to describe paper items from the past that were never meant to last forever. Think tickets and old book pages from the past. New collage fodder may or may not fall into the category of ephemera. I’m not sure!

are you a bot? LOL We're talking about "Collage Fodder" here. xoxo
LOVE the idea of the fodder keeper!
I just love the concept of the Fodder Keeper and I really love the ones you made!!! I am a future attendee of Fodder School.😊

How do you make the book? Looks like a very interesting way to organize the fodder...
great video Wendy

Thank you for explaining that , I’m getting back into creating. This is really helpful ❤❤

Interested in finding out more about fodder school 😊
These fodder books are wonderful. Do you have a video somewhere on making these pages?
Could you talk about the way you bound your signatures please?
I love this! I love making books and messing around with watercolors, so... it fits. I came by way of Sketchbook Revival, by the way. I wanted to let you know that the link to your website has typos and does not go where it should. :D
How do you bind these beautiful creations
I signed up for Fodder School one recently but I don’t like making art that looks too cute or ‘pretty.’ I guess I will have to invent my own way of making fodder.
I know you will find exactly what you are looking for in Fodder School!
Gorgeous!! Are those pockets where you put the fodder or did you stick them in?
Do you have a tutorial on how you make these books with the plastic pockets?
Did you hand or machine sew on the pages? Can I join anytime?
is there another fodder class for 2023?
Love this
Wow thats amazing
🇦🇺❤️💃🏼
Is there a tutorial on how to make the fodder book?
I have 3 huge boxes full of.......something! Now I know it has a name! Which means I get to keep it ALL!! ☺
Do you make the fodder to take stuff out when you need to collage something

@willawanders do we get to learn how to make the fodder keeper in fodder school 3?
The Fodder Keeper is Tiffany Sharpe's project from October of Fodder School 1.
how is collage fodder different from ephemera ?
Am trying ur free 'sampler' week? sorry might be diff name. I am fairly frustrated as that platform ['teachable'?] not want to 'let me in'.... while i have a.group.that i greatly adore on that same platform!?.of course it now [at a mentally challenging 65] occurs to me that i should be presenting this elsewhere! 😭🙈🤷🙋💜💋💐 i do appreciate what/how.u do! 😁
Hahaha 'fodder' is one of those funny words... my [lazy/aging] brain keeps going going to 'godfadda' 😁🙆💐
What is the difference between fodder and ephemera ?
It’s the same, except I don’t think of ephemera as something you create yourself. Ephemera is a form of fodder.
Ephemera means “transitory.” Ephemeral. Temporary. So yes, some collage fodder may be temporary, but it doesn’t have to be. The term “ephemera” is used to describe paper items from the past that were never meant to last forever. Think tickets and old book pages from the past. New collage fodder may or may not fall into the category of ephemera. I’m not sure!
Oh I have a lot of collage fodder!!!
