Another One Bites the Dust

Finished my candy wrapper article of clothing (A piece for breadth). As you can probably tell, I made a vest. For this I used candy wrappers(of course), packaging tape, a little bit of black duct tape, and two silver buttons.

Now all I have left to do it my toilet paper dress. I'm designing it to really challenge me since I finished these past three projects so much quicker than I had expected to. So far my design will use A LOT of toilet paper. It's gonna be interesting to see how it goes.

Completed Concentrations

 I have officially finished concentrations one and two. Thoughts?

Front of #1: This one is made from table cloth, tissue paper, and elastic

 Back of #1

Concentration #2: The entire dress is made from white and black garbage bags

Ugh

Just went to redo my first concentration and right away I mess up twice. So now I have to redo it yet again. So annoying. Plus I still have to make concentration number two and do two more breadth assignments. I need to get it all done before the 17th or it wont get done at all. I feel very overwhelmed, but I know I can do it. I'll start back up again tomorrow and I know I can do this. Eight days to go so that's two days for each piece of art. That's not a lot but if I put all of my free time into it, then it will all get done. Just gonna have to start being overly careful I guess. Can't afford to make any more mistakes.

Beyond Annoyed

So this WAS the final result of my dress. Just finished it tonight. Spent all day working on it to make it perfect. Then somehow(that I still haven't figured out) it ripped to the point where I CAN'T fix it. The only way I could possibly fix it would be to remake the ENTIRE dress. Oh and it's due tomorrow, so I don't have time to do that. I'm so pissed.. I'm going to remake it during the little free time I have while also working on my 2nd concentration that way I have something descent to send into AP. Ugh...

Oh those happy times

Finally finished the bodice of my recycle dress! (Well kind of. Just need to find a zipper to put on it is all.) I will be getting started on the skirt tomorrow. So hopefully all goes well. I'm excited about how it all gonna turn out. So far I'm really liking it. (and I almost never like my work)

Busy Busy Me

Okay so as of now, I am half way done with the top half of my recycle dress. I would take a picture but since it isn't on a model, it just looks like a big black thing. I need to add elastic to the back tomorrow and that part will be finished. I'll try and remember to take a picture of my design to put on here. Although, I have tried 3 different mediums on my design already and none of them really look good. I don't know that I am happy with the style I chose to do this one in. I think I will try something a little different with my next one and see what I like best for the rest of my designs. 

I also have an entire bag full of candy wrappers for that project. It should be a lot of fun. I just got start making those designs out soon. My recycle dress and design come first though. I wish I could find a way to get a little more motivated.

Inspiration file

These are some photos I found online that give me inspiration on my designs. Some I don't know what I want to do with yet, and others I have made designs from before from looking at them for inspiration.

I don't know what categories these will fit into for my Inspiration Binder, but they will all for sure be in the binder.

Also, I'm super sad I couldn't make it to school today to see the presentation. I got really sick this morning and wouldn't have even made it through first period. I hope everyone really enjoys it though. I know I would have.
