Answer 1

I don't know how practical this is, but you can make gods eyes from the sticks and thread. Cross two sticks and wind the thread over and under and around the join of the sticks, keeping it one layer deep so you wind up with a square or diamond. These make pretty ornaments, especially if you use different colored threads. You could use the wire for this, too. ( a google search for gods eyes will give you pix and directions)

You could make silly dolls from the TP rolls (i.c. stick arms) and dress them in crepe paper.

If you work on it, you could probably figure out a way to make a basket using the sticks and wire and thread. That might actually be rather cool and even useful.

Answer 2

i think a really arty sculpture would be the go, or a mixed media piece of art. i once had a book that tells you how to make a functional camera out of a cardboard box!
