Day 7 of Bookmark Project

We have all 3 designs complete and are assembling the document to start cutting the full sheet. Due to the wait of the laser cutter... we will hopefully be done no later than Thursday.

Day 6 of the Bookmark Project

We are working on the third and last design. The design includes the quote "Reading is dreaming with open eyes". Thinking of doing an image to go along with the quote due to the amount of free space. A picture will be uploaded , hopefully, no later than tomorrow if time allows.

Bookmark Project Day 5

We have completed our second prototype. Still needing more design ideas. Comment below if you have any. Just a reminder that this is being made for our christmas craft fair with an audience range from 6-60 years of age. With the designs we have created... we are going to start the process of making the actual bookmarks from the wood that is provided to us. The third design just involves a music note.

Day 4 Of Project

Having a substitute really puts us behind schedule. No laser cutting today which means no second prototype. Designs are being made on the computer and will hopefully have some pictures up today. Being 2 days behind isn't too bad. Hopefully we can get everything caught up by Thursday. Many students have accomplished next to nothing today; playing games, doing other homework, and just talking. As I sit here blogging and attempting to get more designs done... I am constantly distracted by the amount of immaturity amongst my peers.

Day 3 of Bookmark Project

Most of today's agenda is creating the designs on the computer using images from google and the software "Inkscape. We have a total of 2 designs. The first one was showed in the post before and the second one will be posted, hopefully, today or Monday. We have decided to skip the survey due to timing and just wing it. Changes will be made to the first design such as: rounded corners, centered circle, and, eventually, the material.

Bookmark Project Day 2

We are currently in the process of creating a prototype of our books. It will measure 1.5 inches by 6 inches with a hole in the top for a ribbon/string. The prototype includes a quote however images will be included in separate bookmarks or may be placed with a quote. Depending on the size of the quote and the size of the image. The image that is posted below, is our first prototype designed with just a quote. Any suggestions as to what can be done differently?

Beginning Of Bookmarks (Project 1)

We are working on a project that will be brought to market for the public. We are working on the designing of the bookmarks now. After surveying students and teachers in our school, we will choose the top 3/5 designs and begin the production of the merchandise. Selling them at our craft fair for $3.50, people also have the option of 3 for $9.00. A picture of our prototype will be posted no later than tomorrow morning.
