For this material alchemy project I went to the Rhode Island recycling center with Kat and Dan. The first thing I found that really caught my interest was this ribbon that said "Bumpus Middle School Honor Roll". I just thought it was really ridiculous. And then I started reading all these other awards that were equally ridiculous. I ended up making clothing out of these ribbons which made something useful out of these discarded ribbons. Although I can't imagine why anyone would discard their Gridley Gators International Swim Meet Eighth place ribbon! Or nearly 50 purple ribbons from the Vermont Summer Festival haha!
