While Jodie was cutting out the number 2's, Fiona and I went to the shop to buy some cotton wool which we would decorate the winter number 2 with. We chose cotton wool because snow is usually associated with winter and we could make the cotton wool look like fluffy snow if it was applied correctly.
We ripped up the cotton wool and used PVA glue which we borrow from the Art Department to stick it down. We applied it in really small amounts so that it would look thick and fluffy like fresh snow.
We ended up putting about 4 layers of cotton wool on the number 2 as it made it look really thick and would help it to stand up better. Jodie cut out some more foam in the shape of a number 2 and stuck it onto the winter number 2 for more stability as cotton wool isn't very heavy which means the 2 would fall over easily when filming.
We agreed that the background would need some decoration so Coral cut out some snowflakes and made a little snow man figurine. We will hang these off some thread which we hope to borrow from Textiles
