our task was to create a business and products within the boundaries of 30 dollars. we started by taking a survey of different age category’s of things like what do they want for Christmas, what is Christmas and was does it mean to people, from there we brainstormed and devised a product. Our ideas ranged from Christmas cards to nativity scene pieces.

unfortunately because they were made o plaster the hands had a high ‘fatality’ rate, meaning that unless we did it right the fingers tended to brake off, despite this huge setback we ended up decorating the fingers and selling them. they were not a huge seller but they still contributed to our profit.

finally, we settled on the idea of plaster hand models, creating them from a plaster of Paris mixture poured into a latex glove, then spray painted. we got most of our materials from Bunnings, and we made the creation chamber from an old wine box and a wireframe.
