Make it work!

After watching a very edited video clip of Project Runway, the designers were meet by that German Fashion Icon, Heidi.

"Hello ! For you 12 designers, Project Runway is the chance of a lifetime. At stake for the winner: an old copy of Marie Claire magazine and a 100 Grand bar to eat while starting your own clothing line."

"First you must select your model. You have one hour to design her ensemble and then you must take her to the L'Oreal Make up salon and TRESsemme Hair salon within your time frame to create an overall look that will impress the judges. And be sure to use the "Riper Lime" fashion wall thoughtfully!"

You may use any material found in nature. The only exceptions are tin foil or tissue paper for the dress form and glue dots." The designers were given cute little Mood bags to go out and collect their materials.

Duct Tape Fashion

Everyone fashioned accessories from duct tape.

 I found rolls of various designs and they created belts, wallets, bracelets and even a purse.

Boas & Bling Dinner

To celebrate the end of our fashion day, of course we decorated dinner with a little bit of

glamour and bling. We enjoyed chicken cordon bleu, rolls and raspberry parfaits.

After dinner we decided to go ahead and watch our introductory Survivor video because we have a full day planned for tomorrow and we need to start early. The kids were fascinated by the video and very surprised when the video ended and the theme music for Survivor began blaring in the room. Just then someone pounded on the door. When they answered it, there stood the host of Survivor, Jeff Probst....
