55?

For my last project, I made little frog-like things out of paperclips. Turning it into a project a 55 year old would do, I hung them from strings like a wind chime. The reason I did this was because it's creative but if you're 55, you are probably still busy. Simplicity is key.

When I was 5

i dont remember what i liked to do by age but i have always liked being creative. for this project, i simply pried open the center of the paperclips into "v" shapes so that when you press down on them, they jump and flip like the frogs i used to like to collect.

Almost Forgot to Remember

Well last class I remember how very different every project was in class. Most people focused on sound or feeling(s). I felt very different when mine was about smell. I found it interesting that people thought the vanilla candle should either be brown or white and then the black cherry one be either red or green. Strange. I also feel like I learned a lot about my classmates.

Smelling Colors

I wonder if candles are colored the way people think they smell. I decided to buy 3 candles and see if that was true. The scents were:
black cherry: red
vanilla: beige
peppermint: white

More Than Just a Sheet of Paper

I had a pretty tough time trying to make something more than what it first appeared. I came up with making stuff out of paper. The reason for this is paper is so plain, overlooked. Paper can be so much more than that and have so much potential. Paper can do/ be anything, just like us.
