Wearable arts journey

Today at 9 am we started our wearable arts in a group of 3 we were going to make a t shirt made out of chips or plastic bags.

before we started we had to do some drawings to get some ideas of what we will make


Afternoon
Today we had to change our costume to bubble wrap and some ripped jeans which was made out of ripped bubble wrap and we made a hat.

I found out that we did not have enough chip bags to make our costume.

I wondered if we could even make our costume with chip bags.

The most challenging bit was stapling the costume because of the pants kept on ripping the staples kept on coming off.

Now i need to paint and stabilize the costume so it can be  wearable and be taken off .

Tomorrow i will need to upgrade the t shirt and add more stuff to the jeans and t-shirt.

The most fun part was making the t shirt because we put some sticks through the shirt and making the hat.

Wearable arts is making a costume out of recyclable things and had to be able to be wearied and token off.

This is my design so far

• Today i need to work on 
• Bringing a coat hanger 
• Designing the t shirt
• Designing the ripped jeans with color
• Gluing more things on the our costume

Yesterday my group had completed our costume and finished our hat and t shirt then we had had to sow our pants because it was ripping and we put a glasses for the hat.

We found out our pants will kept on ripping because it has holes.

working in a group is helpful because our group will have different and good ideas for making a costume for a element.

working by myself is not gonna be easy because there would not be much ideas.

Our costume does not reflect our element fire because of the hat looks like it has flames on it and a goggle and it will be painted yellow and red.

The Torbay model helps us because we remember what to do plan, reflect and do

Reflection 

Overall i feel happy about our costume because we had spray painted it yellow, orange and red.

The biggest success was the hat because it did not brake at all. 

The most enjoyable part was watching the spray paint happen.

The hardest part was stapling the pants together but then we sowed it which was kind of hard.

If i was to do this again id feel tired because of the work and i wont appreciate it.

I have learnt what wearable arts is and it is a popular fashion show at Wellington in New Zealand called WOW.
