The Yangtze River Daily Da Wuhan Client July 25 (Reporter Qin Liuwei Correspondent Pan Huiping) On the evening of the 23rd, Wu Jun picked up another empty laundry bottle at home, and she planned to transform it into a flower basket. Although there are no offline craftsmanship and display activities in the near future, Wu Jun will still take the time to make some handicrafts. This hobby has persisted for 6 years.

Wu Jun's family lived in Qinghe resident community in Qingshan District. When she first moved to the community in 2016, her daughter Song Yufei was still reading kindergartens. She regarded the walls of the house as drawing paper and graffiti on the wall. "She is young and ignorant. I think that the graffiti she is going to make her may not look so messy." Wu Jun said.

Just do it, Wu Jun bought paint, although there is no artistic foundation, she transformed her daughter's random lines according to her thoughts. Slowly, the beauty of the beach under a blue sky and white clouds appeared on the wall. After her husband Song Gebin took a picture, he got a lot of likes, and some people consulted whether there was a contact information of the wall painting master.

The inadvertent move was recognized by everyone, and Wu Jun had confidence. She began to collect waste items in the eyes of ordinary people, such as waste carton, old furniture, foam, etc., and turned them into handicrafts such as vases, pen holders, photo frames and other handicrafts. After the community discovered her special talent, she started a studio for free on the second floor of the Party Mass Service Center.

Wu Jun recalled: "In the past, some women and friends in the community gathered in the studio almost every day. I taught them craftsmanship. It can also generate value." As the fame is getting bigger and bigger, some folklore display activities will be. Wu Jun will invite Wu Jun to participate. She will always bring the works of the sisters to sell to help them increase their income. Sometimes a event can sell seven or eight hundred yuan.

During the epidemic prevention and control in 2020, Wu Jun became a volunteer. On New Year's Eve, she came to the Tianxingzhou Bridge in a protective clothing, facing the cold wind to assist in completing the temperature work of the passenger vehicle driver. In order to express his gratitude to Hubei medical staff, Wu Jun was a volunteer during the day, and he took time to drive the "angel doll" at home at night.

These dolls are also handicrafts made by Wu Jun. The white protective clothing, the blue ribbon, the mask covering half of the face, and the shiny eyes smiled. After the opening of the Khana Channel, Wu Jun gave more than 1,000 "angel dolls" to Hubei medical staff. The "Angel Doll" she produced was also collected by Wuhan Archives. Many handicrafts related to resistance were collected by Hubei Provincial Museum, becoming a precious historical memory.

A doll seemed simple, but it was done by hand, and it took a long time, and Wu Jun's body was a little bit unbearable. She suffered from tenditis, and her index finger was numb. Her husband Song Gebin was distressed. He took the initiative to help Wu Jun cut, iron, and sew. Although her daughter Song Yufei is only ten years old, she will help her mother share the workload every day. Under the influence of Wu Jun, his son Xiao Longfei also joined the community volunteer team to participate in the prevention and control of the epidemic.

The hostess is clever, the male host treats people's affection, and the children are sensible and filial. In the Qinghe community, the Wu Jun family is a famous harmonious family. In 2020, Wu Jun's family was rated as a civilized family in Wuhan.

Wu Jun was the first batch of women's rowers in my country and won the national championship many times. Now she has obtained a national paddle coach certificate and returned to the familiar field again, but she did not give up the production of handicrafts. Wu Jun said: "Now it is mainly to encourage women and friends to make it at home. I hope everyone will work hard and weave happiness with their own hands."
