Grade 5/6 ~ Steampunk

The 5/6 students have started tinkering away with all the metal goodies that have been kindly donated and they are transforming them, or 'upcycling' them into statement jewellery pieces and metal sculptures - (even some windchimes) in the style of Steampunk. I have also been visiting some local craft outlets to stock up on some metal charms, chain, clasps, jump rings and jewellery findings.
 
Click here to view some information about Steampunk and some inspiration ideas that I showed the students to get their creative minds flowing!
 
Here are a couple of photos of the students' designs so far...

 
 
Aren't they amazing! I think we may need to open an Etsy shop!! Stay tuned for some more photos of their awesome designs as we continue to work on them.
