Lei

In Room 1 we have been learning how to make Lei's. We're not making them yet,we're just sorting out what equipment we are going to use to make them.

We have to use products or Colours that are important to our community. Some people are using wrappers off packets of Butter. Butter is important to our community because it represents the dairy community. We have lots of dairy farms in Southland.

I am using Colours that are important to Southland. All the Colours that I am using are going to be on pieces of Ribbon. The colours I am using are Red,Blue.Green and Yellow. Represents the Heart of Southland, Blue represents the Sky and Water, The Green stands for Grass, And last of all Yellow, Yellow means light, I am also going to use White Beads in between the pieces of Ribbon so that it spaces out.
