This was a great success! As you can see from the photos we had lots of people involved and the demos I did to everyone were very simple, therefore people could pick it up very quickly. It was lovely to socialise whilst work and have a nice fun environment.
At the end of the session we counted 108 Barnacles had been made that night! This was so helpful for us breathers as we can no start using these in our work and sampling.
The actual process of making a barnacle is very easy. It involves asatate, string or wool and masking tape.
INSTRUCTIONS
1. Cut out a circle shape of asatate.
2. Cut out an inner circle shape from this.
3. Tape donut shape of asatate to that of a cone.
4. Tape down your wool or string to the inside of the cone.
5. Start winding the string around the asatate, creating a buttonhole stitch.
6. Continue this all the way round until the end - knot off and finish!
End Result!
From this workshop I feel more confident when instructing others about how to make something. This will benefit me for the future as I may have to do this when im a profession costume maker.
I am very pleased with the outcome and look forward to next session!
