Research/ Inspiration
Tips/Hints
- For a fire, add tiny amounts of acrylic craft paint to clear caulking in red, yellow flame colours. Don't mix together so that the colours stay separate. Tease up little fire wisps with it as it dries. Experiment with just when to pull up the whisps so they stay fairly straight and don't curl over.
- DIY Camping Items- search online for sleeping bag measurements and make your own to scale. Cover a button and make it look like a canteen. Make a fishing rod from a bamboo skewer, some thread, and wire. Form a circle out of small pebbles and put some twigs inside to make a campfire. Paint a piece of wire to look like a twig and then use some air dried clay to make a marshmallow or hotdog to put on it to cook over the campfire.
