Wearable arts

Monday
Today I started the skirt with Sophie and we made a bow.
The most challenging part was when I was hot gluing the newspaper to the ribbon .
We found out that it would look better if we cut one of the sleeves off so that's what we did.
At the moment our outfit is not reflecting our element which is fire, because it doesn't have any fiery colors or decorations to reflect our element.
Here is a picture of Sophie and I planing are dress;

Tuesday
Today we have finished our skirt and have hot glued it on to our blue dress (which is the base for our newspaper dress) and we are thinking of ways to reflect are element.
We had the most difficulty trying to hot glue the red and yellow streamers on to the skirt because we had to do it outside and all the streamers were blowing away.
We found out that we were going to have to make the top separately to the skirt so I had to go to Sophie's house after school and we got to work.
Our outfit is now reflecting our element because of the streamers.

Wednesday

Today we finished our newspaper dress. Sophie and I both are very exited about the finished product of the dress that we have created.

Overall I fell very proud of what Soph and I accomplished.

The biggest success was seeing the final outfit we loved it!

My most enjoyable part was having fun with Sophie and designing an awesome dress!

The hardest part of the whole three days was when we were outside trying to stick all the things on for the dress and everything was blowing away!

If I was to do this again I would change my element to water, because I think that it would of been pretty cool if we had made a water flowing sort of dress.

I have learnt that plastic and hot glue don't like each other.
