Wearable Arts Blurb.

This term we have been working on Wearable Arts. We had to choose a festival and make a costume, Thinking of some material's (That have been recycled) that is not store bought. You could only make a group of no more than 3, in my group there was Dillon and I. We worked with chip packets and beach sticks. We also used a couple of plastic bags for a jacket. But If I did this festival again I would change a lot of things.
We got inspired because there is a you tuber that was going to the festival and he was recording it so if we did that festival then instead of searching it all up we could see a video of being there. We had some trouble with the chip packet's we first ironed then together and then when we were going to hot glue the chip packets on them we realized we did not have enough so we took them apart and ripped them so they filled the most space possible. The good parts was the jacket it too so long but it was really easy when we got the hang of weaving them. We would change the chip packets to plastic bag or at least turn the chip packets around the other way so it is silver and not the flavors of them. But in the end I am happy with the end product. There is also a wood jacket but we have no photo's of that.

  1. Kia ora Zac,

    My name is Emiely (pronounced "Emily") and I am a blogger at the Summer Learning Journey. Your Wearable Arts costume looks great! I actually think it looks really cool with the chip packets the right way around because it makes your pants very bright and colourful. Did someone have to wear the costume? How did it feel when it was being worn?

    If you wanted to continue learning and blogging over the summer holidays, remember to head over to the activities page on the Summer Learning Journey website. You can do these activities in any order. Be sure to remember to post your answers onto your blog.
