Sunglasses

We made a pair of sunglasses using the following recycled materials:-
1) cellophane sweet wrapper from quality streets.
2)old calendar
3) double-sided tape
4) elastic band

First we cut out 2 pages of the calendar to an equivalently sized frames that fits her face.

Then we cut out the middle portion for the eyelet, and paste the cellophane in between.

Next, stick the two pieces of frames together and add on the elastic band at the sides using double sided tape. It'll be easier to gauge the circumference of her head if you cut the elastic band at a slightly longer length and tighten it after it's worn.

Trim the front of the frame in a triangular manner to fit her nose.

Now you'll end up with a pair of comfy, home made sunglasses.

Natalie had so much fun making and wearing the glasses! Here's her showing it off to her yiyi and popo.
