Monday
Today Samara and I started on the skirt. We just spent the first block folding newspaper and Samara started creating the bow to stick on the newspaper.
The most challenging part was hot gluing the folded newspaper to the ribbon when all the wind blew past and would blow away the newspaper
We found out that it would look better if we had one sleeve over the shoulder and cover it with newspaper
At the moment our dress did not have fire on it. (Our element is fire).
Tuesday
Today we have finished the bottom part of the dress and glued the skirt on to the underneath which is the base of our dress.
Now I am cutting the yellow streamers red ribbon and white ribbon into strips and gluing them on the newspaper skirt while Samara made a bow out of squishy pompoms then glued it on to a head band.
After that we both made the top part of the dress with newspaper and layered it with one sleeve.
I found difficult it when the wind kept blowing the newspaper around.
Wednesday
Today we folded orange cellophane and stuffed it up the layered newspaper so it looked like fire then glued flowers on. Next we made Doylies into a circle shape and Christine spray painted the doylies fire colors then hot glued them around the waist.
Then we put the dress all together it looked AMAZING!!!!!!! What a relief!!!!!
