Dandelion making

Overall this what the making process looked like.

1) Brainstorm idea, buy materials, and make test samples to make sure the idea works

2) Paint skewers, cut paper, roll and attach paper to end of skewers. Lots of them...150ish? Listen to jazz as you work :)
 



3) Add foam clay to the bottom of the skewers
 

 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 





4) Paint foam ball

5) Begin inserting skewers into foam
 

6) Make the flying tufts with the fishing wire and hanger. Insert into the foam and hope it works!
 

 

7) Cover lamp pole with green poster board

8) Cut, color, and curl green poster board for the part right under the foam
 

9) Cut a ring into bottom of foam and insert on top of lamp pole

And the dandelion is complete!!
