Decorating The Tree

 LI: To decorate the office tree.

Today we completed our christmas decorations. Our client Mr Johnston asked us to make new decorations for the tree in the office. Once we finished our designs we went to the office to decorate the tree for christmas.The christmas decorations represented the students that go to panmure bridge school. We were given our brief our what our christmas decoration needed to have for example  it needed to be 10 centimeters, 3D effects, and had to be related to your culture. Their were types of holidays that we could pick when we were making our design. They were Christmas, Hanukkah,Eid, And Diwali. The tree in the office looked very pleasant because all the decoration looked beautiful. I was very pleased with the end product and would like to do this again. The tree looked very attractive.

Design Technology Challenge

LI: To design and make a holiday decoration that fits the client brief.

The photos above show my end product or follow up from the design technology challenge. We started by unpacking what the design process was. Our client, Mr Johnston asked LS2 to make christmas decoration. The specification from Mr Johnston was for our decorations to be 10 centimeters, 3D effects, and to make a design from our culture.Then it was time to think of what type of holiday we would make our decorations in that represent us. They were Eid,Hanukkah,Christmas,Diwali. I picked christmas because I thought is was easier when I mixed my culture with the christmas holiday.Once we picked our holiday we started to draw our design on a piece of paper. After doing our design we started using felt for us to pratis of stichting skills. We used the running stitch and the blanket stitch. After we got good at it we started on our proper design. My first design was a turtle with a santa hat. I also added embellishments to my design so it could be more dazzling. I was very pleased with my design because I thought it was made to a very high standard and was made with a lot of effort put in. After that I made more design because I was pleased with my design. I made a flower and snowman and a cup of milk. I had to be creative with the colours because their wasn't enough felt for everybody.
