Arts and Crafts Plates

    You did saw my drawing right? That was my Plate #1. There were 5 plates all in all. I want to share my experiences while I was doing my other 4 parts.

1. Plate No.2(Covering of the drawing book using recycled materials and plastic cover)    

    This, by far, the second best part I did after the free hand drawing. It's mainly because I have time to do it. It is also easier than the rest since you only need to cut and paste. I did it on early morning since I'm not in the mood to do it at evening. I got my recycled construction papers, magazines, plastic cover, scissors and glue to get started.

    I was thinking i would decorate it first by pasting random construction papers of different sizes then some pictures and a sentence at the center. While I was cutting I was thinking if it would look good. Next second I didn't bother. I asked for help on covering it since I don't know how to cover it with a plastic cover. I was happy when I have done it.

2. Plate No.3(Designing the First Page)    

    This has been one of the worst I made. I didn't put much effort on it since the time is ticking faster than I have expected.

3. Plate No.4(Folding and cutting of Basic Shapes and Forms)    

 a. rectangles     

    Rectangles were easy to make but not easy to make it straight. I made flags and the first four letters in the alphabet. It took me a lot of time thinking which really wasted my time.   

  b. squares     

    The first thing that comes to my mind was a crossword puzzle. I love crosswords because it is challenging. I made somewat a chessboard black and white since I don't have time.    

 c. circles     

    I made a basketball, a large one. It was the only thing that was there. I focused more on other subjects where my grades are low so I didn't finished it.   

  d. stars(5-pointed, 8-pointed, 4-pointed)   

   The 5-pointed and 8-pointed we're easy but I wasn't able to finish the designs, sadly. I didn't understand how to do the 4-pointed one.

4. Plate No.5(Expanding Shapes and Forms)   

  a. expanding rectangles     

    It took all of our TLE time making one of that. I had hard time unfolding it back so it really took me time.   

  b. expanding squares  

   I didn't know how to do it. I paid all of my attention to the expanding rectangle so I didn't make it.    

 c. expanding circles     

    Same as on the expanding squares, I failed to make one.
