The group that I was in had Izzy Docherty, Kera Notton, Siobhan Connolly and Me , Skyla May.
I was the model for our group. It was quite scary and very nerve-breaking but apart from that it was very exciting and exhilarating.
Our lovely but absolutely horrid costume was made from Kera's old dress that she was so kind enough to let us use and stick at least 50-60 ties on.
The wings that were underneath the dress were just an old poly-prop and had at least 17 ties on each side of the arms to symbolise wings hanging down or flopping down.
Our beak was quite large and kept on getting hit by people walking past. "I'm surprised that the beak didn't fall off the mask or the browney-black painted mask or the orangey-yellowey-blackey paint didn't scratch off".
The shoes were made from my old shoes and some paper-mache toes to really look good.We also put pieces of glass on the shoes to really show that birds and any animals are dying of pollution and that was the message we were tying to tell everybody.
Wearable Arts was really out there too,because the lighting was amazing the audience and the judges were great. ''I have loved the experience and can't wait until next year!"
