Module 2 Environment and Market

20
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Introduction

Aspiring entrepreneur need to explore the economic, cultural, and


social conditions prevailing in an area. Needs and wants of the people in a
certain area that are not met may be considered business opportunities.
Identifying the needs of the community, its resources, available raw materials,
skills, and appropriate technology can help a new entrepreneur seize
business opportunities.

To be successful in any kind of business venture, potential


entrepreneurs should look closely at the environment and market. They
should always be watchful of existing opportunities and constraints, and to
take calculated risks. The opportunities in the business environment are
factors that provide possibilities for a business to expand and make more
profit. Constraints, on the other hand, are factors that limit business growth,
hence reduce the chance of generating profit. One of the best ways to
evaluate opportunities and constraints is to conduct a Strengths,
Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats (SWOT) Analysis.

SWOT Analysis is a managerial tool used to assess the environment. It


is used to gather important information which is then used in strategic
planning. Strengths and weaknesses are internal in an organization. They
relate to resources owned by an organization that you have control over and
also the extent of its marketing.

Opportunities and threats exist in the external environment.


Opportunities relate to the market, new technologies, and the external factors
such as government policies, climate, and trends. Threats replace what the
competitors are doing. It also includes legal and other constraints.

Now that you have read some important considerations to explore to


be successful in any business, you are now ready to explore more about the
environment and market.

To begin with, let’s find out the competencies that you will master as
you finish this module.

Product Development

When we talk of product development, we are referring to a process of


making a new product to be sold by a business or enterprise to its customers.
Product development may involve modification of an existing product or its
presentation, or formulation of an entirely new product that satisfies a newly-
defined customer’s needs, wants and/or a market place.

The term development in this module refers collectively to the entire


process of identifying a market opportunity, creating a product to appeal to the
identified market, and testing, modifying, and refining the product until it
becomes ready for production.

There are basic, yet vital questions that you can ask yourself about
product development. When you find acceptable answers to them, you may
now say that you are ready to develop a product and/or render services.
These questions include the following:
1. For whom are the product/services aimed at?
2. What benefit will the customers expect from product/service?
3. How will the product/service differ from the existing brand? From
its competitor?

In addition, needs and wants of the people within an area should also
be taken into big consideration. Everyone has his/her own needs and wants.
However, each person has different concepts of needs and wants. Needs in
business are the important things that an individual cannot live without in a
society. These include:
1. basic commodities for consumption,
2. clothing and other personal belongings, 3. shelter,
sanitation and health, and
4. education.

Basic needs are essential to an individual to live with dignity and pride
in a community. These needs can obviously help you generate business
ideas and subsequently to product development.
Wants are desires, luxury and extravagance that signify wealth and
expensive way of living. Wants or desires are considered above all the basic
necessities of life. Some examples of wants or desires are: fashion
accessories, expensive shoes and clothes, travels, eating in an expensive
26
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

restaurant, watching movies, concerts, having luxurious cars, wearing


expensive jewelry and perfume, living in impressive homes, among others.
Needs and wants of people are the basic indicators of the kind of
business that you may engage in because it can serve as the measure of your
success. Some other points that might be considered in business
undertakings are the kind of people, their needs, wants, lifestyle, culture and
tradition, and their social orientation.
To summarize, product development entirely depends on the needs and
wants of the customers. Another important issue to deal with is the key
concepts of developing a product. The succeeding topic shall enlighten you
about the procedure in coming up with a product.

Concepts of Developing a Product

Concept development is a critical phase in the development of a product. In


this stage, the needs of the target market are identified, and competitive
products are reviewed before the product specifications are defined. The
product concept is selected along with an economic analysis to come up with
an outline of how a product is being developed. Figure 3 shows the stages of
concept development of a product.

Figure 3: Stages of Concept Development

The process of product development follows the following stages:

1. Identify customer needs: Using survey forms, interviews, researches,


focus group discussions, and observations, an entrepreneur can easily
identify customers’ needs and wants. In this stage, the information that
can be possibly gathered are product specifications (performance, taste,
size, color, shape, life span of the product, etc.). This stage is very
important because it would determine the product to be produced or
provided.

2. Establish target specifications: Based on customers' needs and


reviews of competitive products, you can now establish target
specifications of the prospective new product and/or services. A target
specification is essentially a wish-list.

3. Analyze competitive products: It is imperative to analyze existing


competitive products to provide important information in establishing
product or service specifications. Other products may exhibit successful
design attributes that should be emulated or improved upon in the new
product or service.

28
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

4. Generate product concepts: After having gone through with the


previous processes, you may now develop a number of product
concepts to illustrate the types of products or services that are
technically feasible and will best meet the requirements of the target
specifications.

5. Select a product concept: Through the process of evaluation between


attributes, a final concept is selected. After the final selection, additional
market research can be applied to obtain feedback from certain key
customers.

6. Refine product specifications: In this stage, product or services


specifications are refined on the basis of input from the foregoing
activities. Final specifications are the result of extensive study, expected
service life, projected selling price among others are being considered in
this stage.

7. Perform economic analysis: Throughout the process of product


development, it is very important to always review and estimate the
economic implications regarding development expenses, manufacturing
costs, and selling price of the product or services to be offered or
provided.

8. Plan the remaining development project: In this final stage of concept


development, you can prepare a detailed development plan which
includes list of activities, necessary resources and expenses, and
development schedule with milestones for tracking progress.

Finding Value
People buy for a reason. There should be something in your product or
service that would give consumers a good reason to go back and buy more.
There must be something that will make you the best option for target
customers; otherwise, they have no reason to buy what you are selling. This
implies further, that you offer something to your customers that will make
them value your product or service.

The value you incorporate in your product is called value proposition.


Value proposition is a believable collection of the most persuasive reasons
why people should notice you and take the action you’re asking for. It is what
gets people moving, what makes people spend for your product or service.

29
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Innovation

Innovation is the introduction of something new in your product or


service. This may be a new idea, a new method, or a new device. If you want
to increase your sales and profit, you must innovate. Some of the possible
innovations for your products are change of packaging, improvement of taste,
color, size, shape, and perhaps price. Some of the possible innovations in
providing services are application of new and improved methods, additional
featured services, and possibly freebies.

Unique Selling Proposition (USP)

Unique Selling Proposition is the factor or consideration presented by a


seller as the reason that one product or service is different from and better
than that of the competition. Before you can begin to sell your product or
service to your target customers, you have to sell yourself in it. This is
especially important when your product or service is similar to your
competitors.
USP requires careful analysis of other businesses' ads and marketing
messages. If you analyze what they say or what they sell, not just their
product or service characteristics, you can learn a great deal about how
companies distinguish themselves from competitors.

Here's how to discover your USP and how to use it to increase your sales and
profit:
• Use empathy: Put yourself in the shoes of your customers. Always
focus on the needs of the target customers and forget falling in love
with your own product or service. Always remember, you are
making/providing this product not for yourself but for the target
customers to eventually increase sales and earn profit. Essential
question such as what could make them come back and ignore
competition, should be asked to oneself. Most possible answers may
be focused on quality, availability, convenience, cleanliness, and
reliability of the product or service.

• Identify customer’s desires. It is very important for you to understand


and find out what drives and motivates your customers to buy your
product or service. Make some effort to find out, analyze and utilize the

30
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

information that motivates the customers in their decision to purchase


the product or service.

• Discover customer’s genuine reasons for buying the product.


Information is very important in decision making. A competitive
entrepreneur always improve their products or services to provide
satisfaction and of course retention of customers. As your business
grows, you should always consider the process of asking your
customers important information and questions that you can use to
improve your product or service.

Process

tasked to form a group and arrange an interview with a successful
entrepreneur or practitioner. You have to document this interview and present

Generating Ideas for Business

The process of developing and generating a business idea is not a


simple process. Some people come up with a bunch of business ideas that
are not really feasible. There are two problems that arise; first is the excessive
generation of ideas that can forever remain as a dreaming stage and the
second is when they don’t have ideas and don’t want to become
entrepreneurs.

The most optimal way is to have a systematic approach in generating


and selecting a business idea that can be transformed into a real business.
Here are some basic yet very important considerations that can be used to
generate possible ideas for business:
1. Examine existing goods and services. Are you satisfied with the
product? What do other people who use the product say about it? How
can it be improved? There are many ways of improving a product from the
way it is made to the way it is packed and sold. You can also improve the
materials used in crafting the product. In addition, you can introduce new
ways of using the product, making it more useful and adaptable to the
customers’ many needs. When you are improving the product or
enhancing it, you are doing an innovation. You can also do an invention
by introducing an entirely new product to replace the old one.

Business ideas may also be generated by examining what goods and


services are sold outside the community. Very often, these products are
sold in a form that can still be enhanced or improved.

2. Examine the present and future needs. Look and listen to what the
customers, institutions, and communities are missing in terms of goods
and services. Sometimes, these needs are already obvious and identified
right away. Other needs are not that obvious because they can only be
identified later on, in the event of certain development in the community.
For example, a province will have its electrification facility in the next six
months. Only by that time will the entrepreneur could think of
electricallypowered or generated business such as photo copying,
computer service, digital printing, etc.

3. Examine how the needs are being satisfied. Needs for the products
and services are referred to as market demand. To satisfy these needs is
to supply the products and services that meet the demands of the market.
The term market refers to whoever will use or buy the products or
services, and these may be people or institutions such as other
businesses, establishments, organizations, or government agencies.
35
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

There is a very good business opportunity when there is absolutely no


supply to a pressing market demand.

Businesses or industries in the locality also have needs for goods and
services. Their needs for raw materials, maintenance, and other services
such as selling and distribution are good sources of ideas for business.

4. Examine the available resources. Observe what materials or skills are


available in abundance in your area. A business can be started out of
available raw materials by selling them in raw form and by processing and
manufacturing them into finished products. For example, in a
copraproducing town, there will be many coconut husks and shells
available as ―waste‖ products. These can be collected and made into
coco rags or doormats and charcoal bricks and sold profitably outside the
community.

A group of people in your neighborhood may have some special skills that
can be harnessed for business. For example, women in the Mountain
Province possess loom weaving skills that have been passed on from one
generation to another. Some communities set up weaving businesses to
produce blankets, decorative, and various souvenir items for sale to
tourists and lowlanders.

Business ideas can come from your own skills. The work and experience
you may have in agricultural arts, industrial arts, home economics, or ICT
classes will provide you with business opportunities to acquire the needed
skills which will earn you extra income should you decide to engage in
income-generating activities. With your skills, you may also tinker around
with various things in your spare time. Many products are invented this
way.

5. Read magazines, news articles, and other publications on new


products and techniques or advances in technology. You can pick up
new business ideas from magazines such as Newsweek, Reader’s Digest,
Business Magazines, ―Go Negosyo‖, Know About Business (KAB)
materials, and Small-Industry Journal. The Internet also serves as a
library where you may browse and surf on possible businesses. It will also
guide you on how to put the right product in the right place, at the right
price, and at the right time.

Key Concepts of Selecting a Business Idea

36
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Once you have identified business opportunities, you will eventually


see that there are many possibilities available for you. It is very unlikely that
you will have enough resources to pursue all of them at once.
You have to select the most promising one among hundreds of ideas.
It will be good to do this in stages. In the first stage, you screen your ideas to
narrow them down to about few choices. In the next stage, trim down the
choices to two options. In the final stage, choose between the two and decide
which business idea is worth pursuing.

In screening your ideas, examine each one in terms of the following


guide questions:

1. How much capital is needed to put up the business?


2. Where should the business be located?
3. How big is the demand for the product? Do many people need
this product and will continue to need it for a long time?
4. How is the demand met? Who are processing the products to
meet the needs (competition or demand)? How much of the need
is now being met (supply)?
5. Do you have the background and experiences needed to run this
particular business?
6. Will the business be legal and not against any existing or
foreseeable government regulation?
7. Is the business in line with your interest and expertise?

Your answers to these questions will be helpful in screening which


ones among your many ideas are worth examining further and worth
pursuing.

Branding

Branding is a marketing practice of creating a name, a symbol or


design that identifies and differentiates product or services from the rest. It is
also a promise to your customers. It tells them what they can expect from your
product or service and it differentiates your offerings from other competitors.
Your brand is derived from who you are, who you want to be and what people
perceive you to be.

Branding is one of the most important aspects in any business. An


effective brand strategy gives you a major edge in increasingly competitive
markets.

37
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

A good product can:


- deliver message clearly,
- confirm credibility,
- connect to target prospect, - motivate buyers, and
- concretize user loyalty.

Here are simple tips to publicize your brand:

• Develop a tagline. Write a statement that is meaningful, impressive,


and easy to remember to capture the essence of your brand.

• Design a logo. Create a logo symbolic of your business and


consistent with your tagline and displace it strategically.

• Write a brand message. Select a key message to communicate about


your brand.

• Sustain a brand quality. Deliver a promise of quality through your


brand.

• Practice consistency. Be reliable and consistent to what your brand


means in your business.

Process

In generating a business idea, you should first identify the type of


business suited to your business idea. You should analyze and scan the
potential environment, study the marketing practices and strategies of your
competitors, analyze strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats in
your environment to ensure that the products or services you are planning to
offer will be patronized and within easy reach of target consumers.

38
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

How to conduct SWOT Analysis:

• Be realistic about the strengths and weaknesses of your business


when conducting SWOT Analysis.

• SWOT Analysis should distinguish between where your business is


today, and where it can be in the future.
• SWOT Analysis should always be specific. Avoid any gray areas.

• Always apply SWOT Analysis in relation to your competition,


i.e. better than or worse than your competition.

• Keep your SWOT Analysis short and simple. Avoid complexity and
over analysis.

• SWOT Analysis is subjective.

Task 6: SWOT Analysis

Directions: In a separate sheet of paper or in your notebook list down all your
observations for your business idea. Categorize your observations according
to strengths, weakness, opportunities and treats. After carefully listing them
down, use the stated strategies to come up with a sound analysis, activities
and best business idea.

LESSON 1 : PERFORM ORIGAMI PRODUCTION

Learning Outcome 1 Trace the History and Development of


Origami

LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Objectives

At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:

1. discuss the history and development of Origami; and


2. analyze relevance of Origami

HISTORY OF ORIGAMI

The technique of paper making introduced into Japan by China during


the early seventh century, underwent considerable changes in its
manufacturing process in Japan ,giving rise to a type of ―washi‖ paper
possessing dual qualities of resilient sturdiness and softness which prevents
tearing when it is handled, Washi, a unique and distinct type of Japanese
paper kindled many forms of cultural creativity, among them origami.

Unfortunately, it is not clear when origami in Japan first originated,


However, well-regulated lifestyle came with the advent of samurai society
which gave rise to the art of paper folding for practical and formal purposes.
From the onset of the Showa period (1926-1989), the art has rapidly passed
into oblivion, but a vestige of its former use can still be seen in the noshi, a
decoration of folded red and white paper attached to a gift.

Origami made to assume concrete shapes of, for example, a crane or


boat is regarded as origami for pure enjoyment. It began to be made
sometime around the beginning of the Edo period (1600-1868) which
coincided with an age in which mass-produced, low-priced paper came to be
widely used by the people.

During the Genroku era (1688-1704), origami of the crane and several
varieties of boats used as designs on clothing became fashionable, and it was
also reproduced with great frequency in Ukiyoe prints. Origami rapidly came
to have a wide following during this period.

About a hundred years later, books and printed matter devoted


exclusively to origami were published, creating a diverse and advanced form
of origami. They were not only a form of children's amusement, but also a
form intended for adults. Many of these origami were difficult to make
because theyincorporated many complicated steps.
The technique of paper making was introduced into Europe in the
twelfth century producing a distinct form of origami. However, origami was not
taken up by a large number of people as it was in Japan.
49
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Not only are there now many imaginative and novel origami creations,
but its educational worth and immense potential have been also reconsidered
and recognized. Origami has gained a widespread following as a hobby
among adults. There are now many origami associations that have been
formed overseas by origami enthusiasts.

The Japanese word "origami" itself is a compound of two smaller


Japanese words: "ori", meaning to fold, and "kami", meaning paper. Until
recently, all forms of paper folding were not grouped under the word origami,
namely "tsutsumi", a kind of wrapper used for formal occasions. Before that,
paperfolding for play was known by a variety of names, including "orikata",
"orisue", "orimono", "tatamigami" and others. Exactly why "origami" became
the common name is not known; it has been suggested that the word was
adopted in the kindergartens because the written characters were easier for
young children to write. Another theory is that the word "origami" was a direct
translation of the German word "Papierfalten", brought into Japan with the
Kindergarten Movement around 1880.

Initially due to the fact that paper was expensive, origami became an art form
practiced only by the elite and was used for practical purposes such as folding
letters. Samurai would give each other little paper good luck charms known
as noshi and Shinto weddings folded paper butterflies

Learning Outcome 2 Plan a design and pattern for an Origami


Paper Craft

Objectives

At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:

1. discuss the design to be made; and


2. sketch the design

51
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

DESIGN AND PATTERN OF ORIGAMI

Planning a design and pattern in Origami is very crucial . You have to make
a plan on what kind of Origami object you want to create. Does it have to be
creative? Functional? Durable? Or to what purpose do you create with.

The diagram below , is an example of a base on the Origami vase in 3D


design . It indicated the number of pieces of Origami fold we need to make.
Plan the measurement of the proposed Origami in terms of height,
circumference and the diameter of the base of your object.

You can use a graphing paper and a crayon or coloring pen in marking
the rows and column and do the counting. Then we can estimate the number
of Origami paper we are going to fold .

After folding, you can now divide the number of folds based on the form or
color of the vase you want to create. You can start assembling them.

PROCEDURES IN MAKING ORIGAMI

Steps in Folding the Paper


1. Check that the paper you are folding is exactly a square.
2. Do not fold against a soft surface, such as a carpet, your lap or
bedsheets. Fold against a hard surface ,such as a large hardback book
or a table.
3. Crease slowly, firmly, and accurately. Form the early creases with
particular care – if they are incorrect place, all the later, smaller creases
will be difficult to place accurately and will look messy.
4. Read the instruction and follow the symbol on each step. Many mistakes
are made by ignoring written instructions or by not following all the written
instructions on a step, particularly during complex maneuvers.
5. The instruction and symbols on one step will create a shape which looks
like the next step but stripped of its symbols. So, you must always look
ahead to the next step to see what shape you are trying to make. Never
look at steps in isolation, but see them as being interconnected, like links
in a chain.

Symbols and Diagram


This shows the white and coloured side, like standard
origami paper. You will see a symbol which shows whether
you should start with the coloured side up or the white

side up

___________ Thick lines show either raw edges or edges resulting


from fold.

______________ Thin grey lines show crease lines which are the result
of prior folds.

2. Explain the importance of quality projects/products of Origami
3. Formulate criteria for evaluating quality projects/products of Origami

CHARACTERISTICS OF QUALITY ORIGAMI PAPER CRAFT

Quality project or product refers to ―customers satisfaction‖ . It means


we deal with the standards of customers for they have the buying power. We
need to understand also that as a craft makers we have our control in
producing this quality paper craft products.

Characteristics of Quality Origami Product

1. The paper is properly folded and creased- it has sharp and even in folds. The
type of paper should also be considered. A sturdier paper can be used if we
want it to have it displayed or used longer.

2. Symmetry is important in making Origami Product - balance proportion in


terms of size, forms and colors . Application in the elements of arts and design
of the project must be followed.

3. There are no extra bends or folds in paper - Extra bends or folds alters the
design of the project and can make the product defective . The paper must be
cut properly and evenly to avoid extra folds.

4. Instructions in folding are properly followed - techniques and methods are very
important in achieving authentic, quality and marketable product.

PACKAGING OF FINISHED PROJECTS/PRODUCTS

77
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Packaging

We often consider the products we use and their packaging to be two


separate things – the product is the thing we want, and its packaging is a
piece of trash to be thrown away.

Good design isn’t just about the product – it’s about good packaging as
well.Some of the other packaging, while not exactly useful, is still helpful and
stylish. It make their products just a bit more fun to use. It doesn’t always
have to be about function.

PACKAGING MATERIALS FOR ORIGAMI PRODUCT

Carton- a light box or container


usually made of cardboard or
plastic.

Cellophane- a transparent sheets


that is used for wrapping or packing

78
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Packing Tape - a transparent


adhesive to wrap around the box

Bubble wrap- pliable transparent


plastic material used to pack fragile
materials

String or cord - composed of a


strand of fibers or plastic it is
usually composed by bundle

79
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Marking Pen - a black and


permanent pen and does not blot

Creativity in Packaging

Most of the packaging designs we see are boring square boxes with
brand logos. But there are a few products out there with creative packaging
designs that are bound to attract consumers’ attention.

For a packaging design to be considered good, it should not only look


fantastic, but also should clearly project the message the manufacturer wants
to convey so the consumers can get it. This is not an easy feat, but there are
a few creative packaging designs that get this right.

A. Layering Method
______1. Use water only to damped or dampen the strips and smooth each one in
place, overlapping the edges slightly, to build a layer reaching to the
outside edge.
Allow the strips to overlap the edge slightly as this can be trimmed later.
______2. Add another layer of glued strips, working downward in the same direction
as the first layer. Continue in this way until the layers are thick enough to
hold the shape. Apply the second layer of strips, this time using paste and
work the strips in other direction. This help to build a firm, strong web.
Paint paste overthe surface and smooth with your hands to remove any
air bubbles. Do thisafter applying each layer of strips.
_____3. Prepare the mould or structure. Tear paper into small strips about ½ in (1
cm) wide X 2 in (5 cm ) long. This size strip will mold well round most
curves.
B. Pulp method

_____1. Transfer the strained pulp to a large mixing bowl. Stirring well, mix in the
whiting and wall paper paste, then the linseed oil and PVA adhesive. Mix
thoroughly. The pulp is ready for use.
_____2. Pour water and paper into large saucepan and bring to boil. Simmer for 30
the minutes. The paper will begin to break up. If a dark scum rises to the
top of water, skim this off. Leave the mix to cool.
_____3. Tear the paper into small pieces no larger than 5/8 in (15 mm) square. Put
the paper into the bucket and cover with water. Add the fabric conditioner.
_____4. Work in batches, mix, using the blender. Strain the pulp into a sieve
andpress with the back of a spoon to remove as much water as possible.

Learning Outcome 1 Trace the History and Development of


Paper Maché

Objectives

At the end of this lesson, you are expected to:

1. discuss the history and development of Paper Maché; and


2. analyze relevance of Paper Maché

The History of Paper Maché

During the ancient time paper Maché was developed as the paper itself
and was discovered in the time of Han Dynasty, c. 202 B.C. – 220 A.D. This
early time paper was used to make three dimensional objects, like
artifacts ,suchas helmet and pot lids. During this dynasty, paper Maché was
described as pasteboard.

From China, the interest in papermaché spread to Japan and Persia. It is


use to make mask in celebrating festivals. Eventually it spread across the
world, European start using paperMachéin making their own wares . From
the 1670’s, until the late 1700’s there was a half-heart intent of paper maché.
In 1800’s paper maché was commonly used for ornamental attachment’s on
architecture and furniture, when it became widely used

The oldest surviving artifacts made of this lightweight but strong material
is a falcon’s coffin from Persia and it was interesting that as of this day
papermaché was recommended to use for human coffins because it so strong
that it was equally as durable as wood.

Paper Mache Basic Techniques

1. Layering methodis the most common sort of


paper mâché, where strips are soaked in glue
and added to a mold layer by layer.

a. Prepare the mould or structure. Tear paper into small strips about ½ in
(1 cm) wide X 2 in (5 cm ) long. This size strip will mould well round
most curves.
b. Use water only to damped the strips and smooth each one in place,
overlapping the edges slightly, to build a layer reaching to the outside
edge. Allow the strips to overlap the edge slightly as this can be
trimmed later.
c. Apply the second layer of strips, this time using paste and work the
strips in other direction. This help to build a firm, strong web. Paint
paste over the surface and smooth with your hands to remove any air
bubbles. Do this after applying each layer of strips.
d. Add another layer of glued strips, working downward in the same
direction as the first layer. Continue in this way until the layers are
thick enough to hold the shape.

2. Pulp method is modeling clay for making papier mache.

Materials:
6 double sheets of newspaper (or similar quantity of other white paper)
¼ cup fabric conditioner
7 large spoons of whiting or ground chalk
6 large spoons mixed wallpaper paste
2 medium-sized spoons linseed oil
4 medium-sized spoons PVA adhesive
Large saucepan

a. Tear the paper into small pieces no


larger than 5/8 in (15 mm) square. Put
the paper into the bucket and cover
with water. Add the fabric conditioner.

97
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

b. Pour water and paper into large saucepan and bring to boil. Simmer
for 30 minutes. The paper will begin to
break up. If a dark scum rises to the
top of the water, skim this off. Leave
the mix to cool.

c. Working in batches, mix, using the blender. Strain the pulp into a
sieve and press with the back of a spoon to remove as much water as
possible.

d. Transfer the strained pulp to a large mixing bowl. Stirring well, mix in
the whiting and wall paper paste, then the linseed oil and PVA
adhesive. Mix thoroughly. The pulp is ready for use.

LESSON 1 : CREATE FASHION ACCESSORIES

Learning Outcome 1: Trace the history and development of Fashion


Accessory Production

Objectives:
1. Discuss history and development of fashion accessory; and
2. Analyze the relevance of fashion accessory products

HISTORY OF FASHION ACCESSORY


Do you have any idea of the beginnings of fashion accessory? Well,
according to the history fashion design is generally considered to have started
in the 19th century. The manner of clothing highly represents the economic
status of an individual and expression of occasion or feeling of the wearer.
During the mid-19th century, new styles in clothing denoted middle class
status. The dark suit, in somber shades of black, grey, or brown, for men
connoted authority, responsibility, and respectability. The sailor suit became
an essential uniform for middle-class boys. Neo-classicism influenced
middleclass women's styles of dress. A respectable, middle class woman did
not expose her body. They wore their hair in curls or knotted like women in
classical statues. Middle-class girls, like princesses, wore bows, ruffles, and
pastels as a symbol of their distinctiveness.
Fashion is one way of expressing oneself. It is a way of exploring
yourself and standing in front of the crowd with confidence. In reality, the
reason why we want to choose our own clothes and other stuff is to satisfy our
own desire and fashion taste. We wanted to look attractive and presentable
through the clothes and other accessories we wear based on personal
comfortability, standard and preferences. The more we fulfill our wants and
desire in terms of fashion accessories, the more we feel happy and light. And
the more we feel happy of what we have, the more we raise our level of
confidence to socialize with others.
In the Philippines, fashion styles of Filipinos largely depends on the
culture, nature of community and even the weather a certain location mostly
experiences, from Luzon, Visayas and Mindanao. It preserves the identity
especially the native Filipinos which is quite traditional and antique style of
fashion as taught by our great ancestors many years ago. Despite of
emerging technologies, other people such as those who are living in the
112
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

mountain still uphold the values and culture they inherited from their
predecessor.
Still, fashion accessories continuously evolving and keep on

CLASSIFICATION OF MATERIALS, TOOLS AND EQUIPMENT IN FASHION


ACCESSORIES

Materials Used in Making Fashion Accessories

A. Fashion Accessories Materials

Metals include copper, brass, stainless, wires and


aluminum, as well as alloys.

Plastics are solid molded pieces of transparent,


translucent, or opaque plastic. Plastic can be used to
copy ivory, horn, or tortoise, or used on its own merits.

Paper Clay is a non-toxic modeling material that can be


sculpted, molded or shaped, and air dries to a hard
finish that can be carved, or sanded.

120
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Glass can be formed or moulded into any shape. In its


most solid forms, it has also been used for beads. It can
be coloured by adding metallic salts and can also be
painted
Wire is an extruded metal and is quite versatile in
jewellery-making because it can hold its shape. It
comes in different thicknesses or gauges. The larger
the gauge, the smaller the diameter of the wire.
However, if you are making earring hooks for a pierced
ear, you should use sterling silver or sterling silver
coated wire to avoid earlobe infections. Sterling silver
wire is available in most craft stores.
Polymer Clay is polymer polyvinyl chloride (PVC)
modeling clay that will harden, thus making firm objects
we can use for jewelry making. Other PVC items are
white glue also known as PVC glue. Although this
product is called clay, it does not contain clay. In its
manufacture, liquid is added to dry particles to create a
gel-like substance that has working properties like clay.

Beads vary in types and shapes. Beads are made from


a wide range of materials such as gemstones, plastic
glass, wood, stone, metal. They can also be made from
natural materials such as plant seeds, pearls, bone,
ivory, wood. Even glass beads are wide ranging from
lead crystal like Swarovski to pressed glass to lamped
work to fused to faceted.
Inexpensive imitations of gemstones are made from
colored glass, plastic, or clay. These are different from
synthetic stones which are made by chemists to
duplicate real gemstones.

Leather is a durable and flexible material created by the


tanning of animal rawhide and skin, often cattle hide.

121
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Findings are the parts used to join jewelry components


together to form a completed article.

B. Indigenous Materials(Local Materials)

Tusks or teeth of elephants, walruses, and whales


where ivory comes from. It is hard, opaque,
creamywhite. It can be carved into intricate medallions
or figures. Fine-line carving of a picture on ivory, known
as scrimshaw, was originally done by sailors. Ivory is
used for pendants, bracelets, rings, earrings, pins,
beads. It can be decoratively carved or spartanly
unadorned. ** (Substitution for these materials are
widely used to protect the animal welfare.) There are
imitations or synthetic made from plastics or fiber cast.

Tortoise shell is the hard, mottled brown shell of


some tortoises and turtles. It is translucent. Tortoise
shell is often used as an inlay material; it is also used
for rings, bracelets, earrings. Tortoise has also been
combined with silver. Horn comes from the horns of
many different animals. Often used like tortoise shell
or ivory, it is hard and usually translucent, ranging in
color from creamy tones to pale, mottled browns.**
Mother-of-pearl is the iridescent whitish coating inside
oyster shells. It is often used for studs, buttons,
inexpensive jewelry, and carved jewelry. Abalone is the
multicolored pearlized lining from shellfish of the same
name.

Wood can be used alone or in combination with metals


or other materials.

122
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Seeds have been popular which beads can be made of.

Paper which is normally made from trees goes through


a pulping process and become paper. However, it can
be made from many other things as well such as
banana leaves, grasses etc. A variety of paper can be
used for the paper-based activities from recycled
glossy magazines, newspaper, junk mail, new gift wrap
or coloured bond paper.

Coconut Shells are the common materials used as


buttons as well as accessories . It comes from the
inner part of the coconut fruit. They are the hard parts
of the coconut fruits which contains the meat or the
edible part.

Jute is a thick and stiff but makes great plant hangers.

Hemp is a scratchy and stiff but gets softer with wear


and frequent washings.

Rattail is really smooth and slippery but makes up into


beautiful pieces.

ccessories and Their Uses


C. Tools in Fashion A
123
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

C.1. Cutting Tools

Scissors are used for cutting paper, fabric and thread


ends. Keep one sharp for cutting fabric and another for
paper as cutting paper blunt scissors. Do not use these
to cut wire.

Cookie cutters are ideal for cutting shapes out of slabs


of polymer clay.

Craft Knife is a type of utility knife. It has a small


fixedblades or retractable, snap off blades. It is good for
cutting thin, lightweight materials with high degree of
precision and control.

zing Tools
C.2. Measuring and Si

Ruler is used for measurement and for drawing straight


lines. Generally, a metal one is better than a plastic

124
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Measuring tape is handy for measuring curved


surfaces, like your wrist for a bracelet. Alternatively you
can use a piece of string.

C.3. Pliers

Curved chain-nose pliers are used to reach into tight


places to grip components, close jump rings, bend wire
and stabilize a design while working. The bent tip allows
access into difficult areas without blocking your line of
vision

Chain-nose pliers are available in both long-nose and


short-nose varieties. Short-nose pliers offer more
strength and stability while long-nose pliers give more
reach.

Crimping pliers are an invaluable tool for stringing


beads, as they easily secure crimp tubes to your
beading wire. The jaws have two notches (when closed,
one notch forms an ''O'' shape, the other a ''U'' shape).
To crimp, first squeeze the crimp tube or bead in the ''U''
shaped notch to lock it into place. Then squeeze the
crimped tube in the ''O'' notch to further secure and
round it.

125
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Flush-cutters trim headpins, eyepins and beading wire,


as well as fine wire used in wireworking. Flush-cutters
allow a flat, even cut even in the tightest of places
(hence the name), making for less filing and cleanup
time. The tiny jaws camouflage their incredible accuracy
and power. After cutting the end of a piece of metal
wire, check out the cutting surfaces and see how one
side makes a "V" shape and the other is flat. For a
perfectly flush cut, always keep the waste end of the
wire toward the concave side of the cutters.

D.Beading and Knotting Tools

Beading needles are thin wires with a sharp point at one


end and a narrow eye on the other end.

Tapestry needles are needles with blunt end and a large


eye very useful for beading.

Embroidery needles have a longer eye to enable


easier threading of multiple embroidery threads and
thicker yarns

CALCULATE AND PRODUCE FASHION ACCESSORY MATERIAL

Purchasing
Have you ever experienced going to the market and about to finish
buying your stuff when suddenly struck by the thoughts if you buy all your
needs or forgetting something? And finally when you arrived at home, you
check the items you bought with enthusiasm only to find out that there’s
missing and forgot one important item to buy! This is one of the common
mistakes one can experience if there was no proper planning before the
action is performed.

However, the good news is you can prevent such unwanted


circumstances to happen by making your actions more organize. It is not an
innate talent but rather acquired through practicing even in doing simple
tasks.

One of the simplest ways is to list down the items you will purchase
before going to the market. By doing so, you lessen the chance of impulse
buying and can easily point out the things you really need down to the least
priority. This is also helpful to avoid wasting of time, energy and money.
Below is a sample format to systematize your items to buy. It aims to provide
you meaningful and practical inputs in developing yourself to be a wise
consumer since varieties of fashion accessories are offered and available in
the market. Gaining helpful information on the areas to consider in purchasing
materials will be your advantage to save time, energy and even financial
resources.

Project: Date to purchase:


This will give you direction on the specific items to buy as needed in your project
to work on and the date to purchase the items.

2. Glue (big) 1 pc ₱25.00 ₱25.00
GRAND TOTAL ₱145.00

The first column on the above table refers to the materials with brief
specification such as the size of the item, the color and other description for
you to easily find what you are looking for. The second column which is the
quantity serves as the indicator how many of the specific items are to buy.
However, be sure that the number of items to be listed is only enough for the
project. Provide some allowance but not too much. The third column indicates
the cost or amount per piece of an item. If you have enough time, you may
also canvass to different stores and compare the price to save money but
never comprise the quality of the products. And the last column refers to the
total amount of the specific item. Notice that the formula is to multiply the
quantity to the unit cost. After filing in the tables, add the total amount to come
up with the grand total. Having doing so, you will now have the idea how
much you need to avoid shortage or overspending of money. Be aware not to
buy more than you can afford.

LESSON 1. METHODS AND PROCEDURES/TECHNIQUES IN MAKING


FASHION ACCESSORY PROJECTS/PRODUCTS

Are you ready to start your project? But you need to know first what are the
different techniques in making fashion accessories before you start your own
product or project.

A. Techniques

WIRING

145
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

1. As shown here in the first picture. This


demonstrates how to hold your pliers
so that your control is good.

Completed Bead wires.

1. Cut a length of wire approximately 1


in (25 cm) longer in length than the
beads to be threaded.

2. Secure one end of the wire in a pair


of round-nose pliers, and carefully
bend the wire to create a loop.

146
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

3. Thread the beads into the wire,


pushing them up to the looped end
of the wire.

4. Secure one end of the wire in a pair


of round-nosed pliers, and carefully
bend the wire to create a loop.

WIRING A DOUGHNUT

1. To wire a donut or something similar,


cut your wire similar proportion to
those shown in the picture.

2. Fold the wire through the donut,


leaving one end longer the other.

147
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

3. Roll the short end to make a loop. Then


wrap the longer end around the
bottom of the loop.

4. Keep wrapping this wire until you have


several neat coils, then clip the end
and gently press the top oil in with
your pliers to make it neat.

KNOTTING BETWEEN THE BEADS- To make sure the knot is close to your
beads, put a needle out when the knot back towards the beads with the needle,
and gently pull the needle out when the knot is sitting next to the beads.

148
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

1. To knot between beads, you need to


allow approximately twice as much
thread as the length of your finished
necklace.

2. The needle of course, is dependent on


the size of your beads and the number
of knots, and you should allow even
more thread if you are going to have a
lot of knots, as it is easier to cut off the
excess than to have to re knot due to
lack of thread

3. Use a needle in the knots between


beads so that all your spacing is even.

MAKING A HOOK

149
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

1. To make a hook, cut a few millimetres of


wire.

2. File one end, and turn a loop in this end.

3. Now curve the wire back around your


pliers and clip off any excess wire.

4. Bend up the end of this wire to make a


good shape, and file this end too.

DOUBLE KNOTTING OF THE BEADS is used if you have bigger or larger holes
150
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

you can make double knots to go between them

1. Wrap the thread loosely twice around


your finger.

2. Gently slide off the thread keeping the


loops in place.

3. Put the needle in the loop in the same


way as the single knot, and tighten.

Beading

151
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

1. To work your beads as shown on the


opposite picture, use two threads and two
needles, and put the three threads either
side of the long beads, so that they cross
in the middle

2. Bring the needle back out of the beads,


thread a bead or several beads between
them, and then thread into the next bead
from either side. Keep working in this way.

BRAIDING THE ENDS- if you have a few special beads, another way to finish
them is to braid the ends. The technique that we have used is a simple macrame
technique.

1. You need three strands , either single or


double. When your strands are ready,
leave the middle one in lace and work
the leaft-hand strand under the middle
and over the right-strand.

152
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

2. Work the right-hand strand over the


middle and under the left-hand strand.
Continue in this way as the braid
builds.

3. You can knot the ends or add a


fastener, and braid back over the ends
that attach the fastener.

COILING A HOOK AND LOOP FASTENING

1. Cut a length of wire approximately 12 in.


(30 cm) in length. Using a pair of
round-nosed pliers, coil the wire,
starting from the bottom of the pliers,
and work upward.

2. Using the flat-nosed pliers, bend the


153
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

excess wire at 90 degrees.

3. With the round-nosed pliers, bend the


wire over, forming a loop.

4. Using the tips f the round-nosed pliers,


bend the wire back on itself, forming a
hook.

5. Take the flat- nosed pliers, and carefully


manipulate the bent wire so that it
follows the first wire.

6. When the wire is satisfactorily bent, cut


off the excess wire with a pair of wire
154
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

snips, and tuck the end discreetly into


the coil.

7. At the opposite and wider end of the


coil, used the flat-nosed pliers to bend
the very last coil in half at 90 degrees,
again making sure the end of the wire
is tucked into the coil itself. This forms
the mechanism by which the fastener
is connected to the necklace.

TWISTING A WIRE

1. With the wire snips, cut two equal 48 in


(120 cm) lengths of wire and bend
them both in half. Secure the ends in a
vice. Take a hook piece of wire, which
is fastened into a drill and hook into the
looped end of the bent wires.

2. Turn the hand drill to make the wires


twist together. It is important to turn the
drill slowly to allow the wires to twist
together evenly.

155
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

3. Continue to turn the drill until the wires


are tightly, and evenly twisted
together along the length of the wire.
You can choose how loosely or
tightly twisted you want your wire to
be.

4. Remove the twisted wires from the


vice and drill. Using the wire snips,
cut off the looped end, so that you
are left with an even length of wire.

5. Secure a circular rod, and one end of


the twisted wire around the rod.

6. Continue to bend the twisted wire


around the rod until all of the wire
has been used, and the wires have
formed a coil.

1. Cut a piece of wire approximately 10 in


156
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

(25 cm) in length. Using a pair of


round-nosed pliers, coil the wire,
starting from the bottom of the pliers
and working upward.

2. Continue to coil the wire along the


length of the nose of the pliers,
keeping the growing coil tight and
even.

3. Remove the tapering coil from the


pliers, and use the excess straight wire
to form a loop.

4. The loop is created by bending the wire


over on itself, and tucking the end into
the coil. This forms the fastening
mechanism

157
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

5. At the opposite and wider end of the


coil, use the flat-nosed pliers to bend
the very last coil in half at 90 degrees,
again making sure that the end of the
wire is tucked into the coil. This forms
the mechanism by which the fastener is
connected to the necklace or bracelet.

te way of finishing a necklace, knots

ATTACHING A FASTENER is an appropria


are used to attach fasteners.

1. To do this make a single knot next to


your beads, and leave a needle in it.

2. Put on your fasteners, leaving space for


more knots between it, and the knot,
with the needle in it. Then put the knots
into this space, remembering how
many you have used, and how much
space you left, so that you can
duplicate on the other side

158
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

3. When you made these knots, put your


thread into the needle that you left in the
knot, and pull the needle through to
tighten everything.

4. Either put a drop of glue into the last


knot, and cut off your loose thread, or if
you have large enough holes, thread
back into your beads

A. EARRINGS

Women, Men & Earring Fashion

Both sexes wear earrings in most countries, but in the West the
practice is sometimes deemed effeminate for men. But earrings became
almost obsolete for women during the Middle Ages in Europe because they
were overshadowed by gigantic hats, towering wigs and high collars. In the
16th and 17th centuries, however, lower necklines and more subdued
160
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

hairstyles brought earrings back in vogue, allowing jewelers and talented


craftsmen to sell gold earrings to the upper classes, who could display their
wealth in the jewelry they wore.

Earrings Today

By the 1970s, some people were wearing more than one set of
earrings at a time, with multiple piercings, in all areas of the outer ear, not just
the lobes. Styles and materials continued to multiply, reflecting the changes in
cultural attitudes of the latter years of the 20th century.

Gold earrings have remained a stable of the woman’s jewelry box,


because they’re versatile and can be worn with almost any color or clothing
style, from casual to formal. Since ancient times, gold jewelry has been
considered classic and essential to the wardrobe. Jewelers continue to sell
gold earrings as gifts, basics and special pieces.

TYPES OF EARRINGS
Stud Earrings are the most simple of all
earrings. They can be diamonds,
gemstones, pearls, gold or silver balls
that are on a metal rod that stick
through the ear lobe, with a small
backing to secure them. These are
usually the starter earrings that
everyone gets when you first get your
ears pierced. Simple and classic… They
never go out of style!

Hoop Earrings are also a classic style


that never seem to go out of fashion.
They are a loop shape that goes
through the ear lobe and hooks in the
back.

161
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Drop Earrings is a lovely earrings,


which dangle off the ear… these
earrings usually hang off a fish hook, or
they dangle down from a lever back.
These can include chandelier type
earrings, which have different lengths
dangling down off the ear. They can
include metal, silver, gold, and have
gemstones dropping down.

Types of Earring Backs is a list of the types of earring backings that help secure the
earring on your ear. Some are stronger than others, and some have screw on backs,
to prevent loss of your favorite and cherished jewelry.

Fish Hook is curved like a hook, that


goes through the ear. It’s long enough
that it normally doesn’t have a backing.

Screw Back is a more secure stud


earring backing, as compared to the one
that just slides on the post. The backing
screws in on the post, and usually takes
a little longer to put on your ears, but
then you don’t have to worry about
losing your earrings.

Lever Back - The back is curved like a


fish hook with an enclosure that latches
behind the ear. Advantages of this type
of earring backing is having it secure on
your ear, so you won’t have a chance of
losing it.

French Back has a post that goes


through a loop in the back, also
sometimes called the ―Omega‖
Backing.

162
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Latch Back is a hinged backing, usually


on hoops that the post goes through.

Push Back is the most common earring


backing. It is also sometimes called a
―butterfly‖ back because of it’s shape. It
just slides on the post behind your ear
lobe.

Read the procedure and prepare the tools and materials you need.

Things You’ll Need:

PROJECT # 1 1. Chain nose (round nose) pliers


HANGING EARRINGS 2. Beading wire cutters
3. Needle nose pliers
4. Head pins
5. Earring hooks
6. Jump Rings
7. Beads
Procedure

163
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

1. Select your beads and gather the


earring hooks, head pins, needle
nose and chain nose pliers. These
tools and materials are all
essential. See the picture for
further detail.

2. Arrange the beads the way you


would like them, placing the bead
you would like at the bottom on first
and so on.

3. With your pliers, bend the excess


head pin over 90 degrees on both
earrings.

4. With the steel cutting pliers, cut off


the pin until it is only 1 cm long.
Alternatively, attempt the "Jump
Ring" Technique below:

Jump Ring Technique

1. Follow instructions 1 to 3 as above, but skip step 4 by not cutting the pin yet.

2. Bend the head pin all the way aroun d, then wrap it several times around the
pin whre it just comes out of the bead. Cut the excess and tuck the end in so
that the it does not stick out. This creates a closed secure loop.
Open a ―jump ring‖ (basically a
3. circl e of wire that's not entirely closed) and
slide on the head pin with beads an d the earring hook. Close the jump ring
securely.

4. When opening a jump ring, do not pull the ends apart directly away from

164
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

each other (such that they are still in the same plane); this weakens the
ring.Instead, slide one end past the other (perpendicular to the plane of the
ring) to open, and slide back in the same manner to close.

5. Get your earring hook and with the


chain nose pliers, bend the head pin
around in a circle. Notice in the
picture that the pins are not bent all
the way around.

6. Slide the hook onto the half bent pin


and then bend the pin all the way
around so there is no way the hook
can slip off and earring fall apart.

Congratulations! You have crafted your


first handmade earrings!

B. NECKLACE

KNOW

Archaeologists believe that the necklace was born during the


Stone Age about 40,000 years before than previously believed. April
2004, scientists were excavating a cave in South Africa discovered
forty-one mollusks that may have been strung as neck jewelry about
75,000 years ago.

Before this discovery, the oldest known necklace to have been


found about 30,000 B.C. are made mostly of shells,bones, stones,
animal teeth or claws, strung on a thread. Basically the same concept
is used today though there are some variations.

Since then however, necklaces are very popular among all the
classes. It became a favorite gift for mothers, friends and loved ones to
express one’s feeling. They are precious not in gemstones or gold but
in sentiment and heart value.

Necklaces are worn now for a variety of reasons not the least of
which personal adornment. Many people wear medals that are
religiously significant. It stands to reason that it can be said that
necklaces have been and will remain a piece of jewelry that is
completely versatile in its design and the intent of the wearer.

Things you’ll need:


PROJECT # 1 1. Stainless steel
2. coated wire
BEADED NECKLACE 3. nylon
4. crimp beads
5. plastic pearl
6. cultured pearl

PROCEDURE:

1. Gather your stringing materials. The best kinds


are flexible beading wire and beading thread.

Look for wire that has 19, 21 or 49 strands of


stainless steel wire, coated with nylon.
(Strands that only have 3 or 7 wires will kink
easily.) Beading thread is a great option if you
are stringing lightweight beads and it comes
in several different colors.

2. Before cutting your thread or wire, determine


the length of your necklace and add 4-8
inches (10-20 cm), so that you have enough
to connect the clasp to the stringing materials.

168
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

3. Gather 2 crimp beads, 1 clasp, and the beads


for the desired necklace.

4. Slide a tiny bead on the threading material,


then the crimping bead, then another tiny
bead about 1 inch (2.5 cm) or so down.

5. Place one end of the clasp (the jump ring) on


after the crimp bead and make a loop with the
stringing material.

6. Place the end of the stringing material through


the clasp section and then the beadcrimp-
bead combo and use the crimping tool/chain
nose pliers to crimp the bead in place.

169
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

7. Place the end of the stringing material through


the clasp section and then the beadcrimp-
bead combo and use the crimping tool/chain
nose pliers to crimp the bead in place.

8. If using bead thread, you may wish to put a


dot of super glue of hypo cement on either
end to ensure that the beads and crimp stay
on.) These steps will protect the stringing
material from rubbing on the ends of the
crimp bead, which may cause the necklace to
break.

9. Choose your beads and lay out your design


before stringing; using a beading board can
be beneficial allowing the design to be laid out
and measured before stringing.

10. When you are satisfied, string them onto your


necklace. Be sure to leave about 3-4 inches
(7.5-10 cm) of stringing material at the end.

170
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

11. Use a clasp section/ jump ring and the


beadcrimp-bead combo and try to push the
remaining stringing material into the bead
holes below the crimp bead.
Be careful not to pull the stringing material
too tight. Leave a small amount of slack in
the necklace (2-4 mm or 1/4 inch). This
leaves room for the beads to move and
rotate, so they don't rub on each other or
the stringing material too much. If the
stringing material is too tight the necklace
will be rigid and this can make the design
look angular instead of slightly rounded
like a necklace should be.

12. Crimp the second end and cut the stringing


material with slush cutters. It is not
recommended that you cut the wire too close
to the crimp bead. 1 inch (2.5 cm) of wire,
carefully hidden in the bead holes, is good
insurance against breakage.

Congratulations! You have made your first


handmade necklace!

C. BRACELET

The English word "bracelet" is derived from the Latin word


"brachium" which simply means "arm."Exactly when someone first
discovered that tying a vine around the wrist made a pretty decoration
isn't known, but people have worn bracelets for centuries.

Early bracelets: The wearing of jewelry for adornment and ritual may
have started as far back as 7,000 years ago, and archeologists have
found evidence that people wore bracelets in ancient Egypt,
Mesopotamia and China.

Ancient Egypt: By the time of the First Dynasty (2680 B.C.),


Egyptians were wearing bracelets made of gold and silver and
173
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

decorated with semiprecious stones. Skilled goldsmiths of the New


Kingdom (1558 to 1085 B.C.) crafted inlaid designs made of African
gemstones.

Mediterranean influences: The ancient Greeks wore cuffs on the


upper and lower arm as decoration. Greek soldiers used wide leather
and metal cuffs as part of their dress uniform and for protection, a
practice later adopted by Roman soldiers.

Asian artistry: Intricate cuffs and bangles carved from jade existed in
China as early as 2000 B.C. The ancient Chinese also valued gold
bracelets and etched elaborate patterns of nature, animals and
mythical creatures into the gold. Gold bangles were the common
bracelet style found in India, too, although strands of colorful metal and
glass beads have become popular in modern times.

European revival: European women revived bracelets as common


fashion accessories in the 17th century. They wore ribbons and thin
bangles -- often wearing several at a time. Bracelet chains became
stylish accessories, especially in the 19th century; the designs linked
cameos and medallions decorated with ivory and coral. Charm
bracelets with dangling lockets and engraved charms became popular
during the Victorian Era.

20th century: During the 20th century, consumers could find bracelets
of almost any design imaginable. Bracelets also became more
affordable as mass production increased the availability of fashion
jewelry. Men started wearing bracelets again, usually choosing gold or
sterling silver link chains.

21st century: Several lasting innovations in bracelet design occurred in


the last decade. Silver became the most common material for link
bracelets, cuffs and bangles. This trend started in the 20th century
when manufacturers mass-produced silver jewelry, which was less
expensive than gold but still had the sparkle of a precious metal that
buyers loved. The preference for silver over yellow extended to
industrial metals, such as silvery grey steel, titanium and tungsten.
Industrial metals are now the dominant material in men's bracelets. As
the green-living movement grows, more people are demanding natural
materials in their wardrobe. Finally, today's young people often wear
simple bracelets to support social causes and showcase group identity;

174
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

their banner can be a colorful rubber band, dangling charm or even a


piece of string.

TYPES OF BRACELET

1. Chain. There are many different types of chains,


first the metal can vary from different karats of
yellow or white gold, platinum, and sterling silver.
Next, there are many different varieties of
chains; some can have large links, while others
are flat and flush to each other and have no
openings.

A chain bracelet can either be plain or can have a


pendent or other decoration on it.

2. Pearl. Natural pearls are rare and their price tags


forbid many and so, most of the freshwater pearl
brooches sold now is made of cultured pearls
though one could hardly tell the difference
between a good quality cultured pearl and a
natural pearl.

Cultured pearls come in two primary forms -


pearls that are grown in saltwater and those that
are cultured in freshwater. Since saltwater
cultured pearls are much higher in quality as
compared to their freshwater cousins, saltwater
cultured pearl jewelry is much more expensive.

175
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

3. Bangle. A bangle bracelet isn’t like any other


bracelet. Sometimes they are thin, and
sometimes they are thick, but they normally
don’t close all the way and they are stiff rather
than loose and free moving like a regular
bracelet. This type of bracelet is normally more
―spunky‖ and ―hip‖.

4. Charm. A charm bracelet is a simple chain that


wraps around the wrist, but it has links large
enough to attach charms to them. Charms are
small decorative pendants made in a variety of
shapes, colors, and designs, and they often
signify a special event or relationship. They
might include jewels, miniature animals, signs
such as hearts or stars, tiny photo frames,
initials of the wearer and her friends, or special
engraved items from loved ones. This type of
bracelet can hold charms of all types,
representing gifts, friendships, or special
occasions.

Choosing a bracelet really depends on the person who will wear it. If
the person has a small or dainty wrist, you will want to make sure that the
bracelet does not look too bulky for her wrist.

4. When there is about 2 inches of string left on each


side of the bracelet, you are ready to finish off the
bracelet.

5. If you used elastic string, you can just knot the


ends. If you used beading string, you are going to
need to use bracelet clasps so you can take the
bracelet on and off - knot the ends of the string
around those holes on each side of the clasp.

D. RINGS

Rings are noted everywhere in nature. The idea of a circle gives out
notions of eternity, with no beginning and no ending. The symbolism of the
ring later became a status symbol of authority, wealth, and position-especially
in the ancient Roman world. This idea of the ring as a status symbol is derived
from the ring’s cosmetic qualities, which is seen in its ―value‖ to some as an
adornment of the body.

The ancients had at least three uses for rings: (1) to distinguish status
or conditions of quality; (2) betrothal or engagement rings, and (3) rings used
as seals in business or other personal transactions.

It seems that the use of a ring as a seal was the earliest employment of
rings in the civilized world. In this use of the ring, it was associated with the
transfer of goods or property.

The earliest use of the ring in the civilized world seems to have been in
making impressions or imprints upon wax or clay. This ring, then, was used to
designate ownership. It was normally too large to be worn upon the finger,
and was sometimes a part of a bracelet or necklace, or just attached to the
waist by a thong or a cord.
By the sixteenth century B.C. finger rings were noted among the
ancient Egyptians, which leads some to believe that this was about the time
when the finger ring evolved from the signet ring, which was used as a seal.
This means that the finger ring, at this time, became ―ornamental‖ rather
than useful as a seal or signet.

LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

TYPES OF RING

BIRTHSTONE RINGS - Usually a slender,


simple ring (sometimes consisting of a
band), set with the wearer's birthstone,
or the birthstone of the wearer's
spouse.

TOE RING - A toe ring is a ring made out


of various metals and non-metals worn
on any of the toes. The second toe of
either foot is where they are worn most
commonly. This is because
proportionately it's the longest toe and
thus the easiest toe to put a ring on
and stay without being connected to
anything else.

WEDDING RING - A ring presented at the


time of marriage to signify espousal
and marital commitment. Originally
worn only by women, it is now
common for both spouses to wear
such a ring. A wedding ring or wedding
band is a metal ring indicating the
wearer is married. Depending on the
local culture, it is worn on the base of
the right or the left ring finger.
MOURNING RING - Mourning rings are
memorial rings used to commemorate
a deceased relative, close friend or an
historical

181
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

figure. These rings were given at the


funeral to close friends and/or family
members as specified in the will of the
deceased.

5. MOOD RING - The mood ring was


invented by Joshua Reynolds. Mood
rings enjoyed fad popularity in the
1970s and are still around today. The
stone of the ring changes color,
supposedly according to the mood or
emotional state of the wearer.

these towards the middle of the thread length.

2. Put a fourth bead through one end of the thread


and cross that bead, passing the other end of
the thread through it as well.

3. Pull both ends of the thread outwards to bring all


four beads together in a closed, flower-like
formation.
Now, put one bead through each end of the
thread.

4. Put another bead through one end of the thread


and cross that bead with the other end of the
thread as done in the previous step.

183

E. BROOCH
A brooch is a fashion decorative accessory that usually attaches to
clothes with a rotating pin clasp.
A pin is usually a smaller brooch that attaches with a small sharpened
rod and push-on safety clasp, but some use the rotating rod with a clasp,
similar to that of brooches. Pins and brooches are traditionally worn on
clothes such as jackets, shirts, dresses, sweaters and hats.In the older days
brooches were used to hold clothing together. Brooches come in different
designs and are made from different materials, including Swarovski crystals,
feathers, plastic stones, sea shells, pearls and pearl imitation .Bronze,
copper, pewter, steel and silver are used to make brooches' base or be the
186
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

only ingredient in the brooch design. A fashion brooch with a good design
oftentimes looks better than an expensive gold and diamonds brooch.

Types of Brooches

1. A cameo brooch, often called a portrait


brooch, is characterized by a small
threedimensional face planted on a rounded
metal base, which has a pin attached to the
back. Cameo jewelry, including pendants,
rings and earrings, dates back to the fifteenth
century, but it wasn't until the Victorian Era
(1837-1901) that cameo brooches became a
fashionable must-have accessory. The faces
are carved out of shell, glass or stone and
traditionally feature the faces of Greek or
Roman goddesses and famous heads of
state.

2. For glamorous events and black tie parties,


gemstone-encrusted brooches are a way
to add a dash of glitz to an ensemble. A
staple of 1920's flapper dressing, the jeweled
brooch became a functional (and fun) way to
hold up stockings while out dancing at the
local jazz club. And with the advent of
costume jewelry, pieces crafted of non-
precious metals and fake stones, during that
time, sparkling brooches became more
affordable. Even today, costume brooches
can be found almost anywhere jewelry is
sold.
3. Stick pin brooches look just like they
sound: a long, thin piece of metal with a
sharp point at the bottom end and a fancy
bauble at the top. They are descended from
the spina, a pin made out of a single thorn,
187
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

worn by ancient Romans to fasten their


clothing closed. During the modern era,
stick brooches became available in different
sizes, their lengths dependent upon their
function. Hat pins are longer and used to
secure a hat into a woman's hair, while lapel
pins are shorter and worn to dress up a
men's suit.

4. Annular brooch is one of the oldest types of


brooches. Also called the ring brooch, this
style dates all the way back to the fifth
century in Europe. Annulars have a very
simple open design of a ring with a pin that
stretches down the back. Similar is the
penannular brooch, which also has a ring
shape, but the circle is broken at some
point. Both variations can be plain or
encrusted with gems or even embossed
with intricate designs.

and sometimes both. Predecessors of the headband in history include
wreaths and ribbons, and there have been many times when people
sought to either decorate the hair with a band around the head, or to
keep it in place with a skillfully placed band. There are numerous types
of headbands to choose from presently, and they are made in many
different materials.

G. BELTS

Belts can be a decorative or functional part of a wardrobe. While most


people have at least one garment that requires a belt to hold it up, a
decorative belt can be an important fashion detail on a garment.
198
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Probably since prehistoric time, some type of belt was used to


keep clothing up. The Egyptians were first civilization known to have
used belts. Belts, or girdle, held the man’s loincloth, or schenti, and
woman’s robes in place. Egyptian belts represented wealth and
royalty. They were gold, beaded, or embroidered.

In the middle ages, belts were worn to connote social stature. Men
wore wide, richly detailed belts to hold their swords. Later an
aumônière, or purse, was hung from the belt. Silken or golden,
jeweled cords which ended in tassels were wrapped around women’s
waists. In the fourteenth century silver bells became a craze and were
hung from belts all across Europe. Many laws passed to forbid the
wearing of belts.
The men’s swordbelt continued into the Renaissance. In
Elizabethan England women hung small mirrors from their belts.
French women wore chain belts, troussoire, with a long tail ending in a
pendant or rosary hanging in front.

In the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries, belts were not of


great importance although men wore swordbelts into the seventeenth
century. Englishmen in the latter part of seventeenth century wore
fringed sashes. Prior to the French Revolution, simple ribbon sashes
accented women’s natural waistlines.

When the women’s waistline returned to its natural place in the


1820s a wide, straight belt accented it. The belts, actually sashes, did
not become popular again until the 1890s waist less silhouettes
resulted in a decline of belts, although low ones were worn, but the
1930s put decorative ones back at the normal waistline. Since that
time, the style and placement of women’s belts have varied with the
season’s fashions.

7. Dangle is a belt with decorations

208
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

CHARACTERISTICS OF QUALITY FASHION ACCESSORIES

A craft maker should know what are the essentials in making fashion
accessories. These are some considerations when we are going to produce
accessories.

1. Design - updated fashion pieces which offers the latest styles with
everyday functionality. It coordinates the principles of the arts and design.
2. Price - affordable that suits to any budget
3. Availability - the supplies of the materials are abundant and can suffice
the demand of the consumers
4. Value in terms of catering to ones essence of individuality or satisfaction
of the product regardless of the price.

When making the accessories, we should apply the elements of the arts
and principle of design. It is important to develop a product that can give
customers appreciation.

A brief description an example of elements of the arts.


Example of finished Elements
product

LINE - A continuous mark made on a


surface by a moving point;

COLOR - The visible spectrum of radiation


reflected from an object

209
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

VALUE- The lightness or darkness of a


color. How much white or black shows
through or is mixed in. Can be used to
depict light and shadow on a color and
help show volume/form.

SHAPE - An enclosed space defined by


a line or by contrast to its surroundings.
Shapes are two-dimensional (flat): circle,
square, triangle, organic blob

FORM - A three-dimensional object: a


defined volume of space.

SPACE - The distance or area around or


between elements of an artwork. The
illusion of depth created on a flat surface
through the use of perspective,
overlapping elements, size, level of
detail, color and value.

TEXTURE - The tactile sensation or feel


of a surface (rough, smooth, spiky, etc.)
or how something appears to feel.

210
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Art Principles Applied in Fashion Accessories


BALANCE - The distribution of interest or
visual weight in a work.a smaller element can
balance out a larger one if the smaller one is
farther from the center and the larger one
nearer.

EMPHASIS - is created by visually reinforcing


something we want the viewer to pay attention
to. Focal points are areas of interest the
viewer's eyes skip to.

CONTRAST - The difference in quality


between two instances of an art element, or
using opposing qualities next to each other.
For example, black and white (contrasting
values), organic/curvy and geometric/angular
(contrasting lines/shapes/forms), and rough
and smooth (contrasting textures).

REPETITION & PATTERN -Repeating art


elements in regular or cyclical fashion to
create interest, movement, and/or harmony
and unity. Rhythms can be random, regular,
alternating, flowing, and progressive. Classes
of pattern include mosaics, lattices, spirals,
meanders, waves, symmetry and fractals,
among others.

211
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

PROPORTION/SCALE - The relationship of


sizes between different parts of a work

VARIETY - Using a range of different qualities


or instances of an art element to create a
desired visual effect - e.g., a variety of shapes,
colors, etc. Variety can add interest and break
the monotony of simple repetitions.

HARMONY/UNITY - Harmonious elements


have a logical relationship or progression - in
some way they work together and complement
each other.

In addition to these principles of design and art ,the wearer has to take the
consideration on how she/he wears it. Accessories can either make a wearer
astounding or it can be a distraction nor cannot complement on how he or she
wears it.

Tips on how to choose earrings

The world of fashion, human faces are described according both to their
shape and skin tone. While some women choose earrings to complement
their skin tones, most fashion experts agree that it is more important to
choose earrings that flatter the general face shape. Below provides a
description of the different face shapes.

Shape of the Face Description Type of Earrings

212
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Oval shaped. Oval-shaped


faces feature foreheads Dangling
that are as wide as the Earrings
cheekbones. The face
narrows from the cheeks to
the chin, creating the oval
shape.

Round shaped. Also called Teardrop and


circular faces, round faces Dangle Earring
are widest at the
cheekbones. The
cheekbones do not taper
down to the chin as with
other face shapes.

Heart shaped. Heartshaped Dangle ,

HOW TO CHOOSE NECKLACE THAT IS RIGHT FOR YOU?

Necklace adds elegance to the wearer. It adds formality and class to the
wearer. However, one should have knowledge how to choose necklace that
would fit well. What are the things to be considered so that necklace will help
in giving positive impression to others? Let’s read the tips in choosing right
necklace for you.

A. Choose the Perfect Length

214
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

Most necklaces measure one of several standard lengths, but you’ll


find there’s a huge variation of styles within each length category. If
your overall build is larger or smaller than what’s considered average,
necklaces will fit you differently.

When choosing a necklace, it can sometimes


be hard to choose the right length to go with your
outfit. Fortunately, there are some basic guidelines.
The standard chain length is 16 to 20 inches, which
sits just between the base of the throat and the
collarbone, for most people. And just like style, the
correct length for you is based on personal taste. It's
also nice to have different sizes and styles of
necklaces on hand for different occasions.

Basic Tips:

In general, there are a few basic fashion tips


you can follow to help you find the right necklace for
your neckline:

1. Pairing a round shaped necklace with a v-neck is a no-no. Choose


a necklace with a pendant so that it falls in a "V" shape to mimic
your neckline.

2. Don't wear any necklace at all with a halter top - earrings and
bracelets make better accessories for this type of neckline.

3. Choker length necklaces (14-16 inches) are suggested to


accessorize strapless tops and dresses. Strings of pearls or
crystals work well, or delicate chain necklaces with a tiny pendant
or drop are quite pretty too.

4. A Princess length necklace (between 17-18 inches long) is a lovely


accompaniment to a plunging neckline, and especially for evening
gowns with this feature.

5. Opera length necklaces (22-24 inches) pair well with turtleneck tops
and can really complete the look nicely!

A. DIFFERENT TYPE OF NECKLINES AND NECKLACES THAT FITS

Great jewelry can transform an average outfit into a memorable


one, and selecting the right necklace to match with your neckline is

209
important. One little misstep and your neckline can look too busy. Let’s
run through some different necklines and pair them with necklace
styles that complement their shape.

1. V-neckline

V-necks are popular all year round. In


summer they’re great to show a peek of your
golden glow, and in winter you can use them
for layering. The perfect necklace for the v-
neck is a triangle pendant. It will bring a focal
point to your outfit, and weigh the chain to
mimic the angles of your neckline.

2. Boat Neckline
Boat necklines were
originally designed for sailors so they
could easily slip out if they were to fall
overboard. For us fashionistas, it means a
simple and elegant neckline cutting from
shoulder to shoulder. The best necklace for
this plain cut is a long pendant to add
length to your torso and to break up the
horizontal cut of this nautical neckline.

3. Square Neckline
Square Necklines are considered
a discreet way to show off cleavage
without being too flashy. This neckline
lends itself well to low profile pendants.
The round shape of the necklace
creates a nice contrast to the straight
cuts of the square neckline.

216
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

4. Turtleneck neckline
This is a popular neckline for wintery weather. It's cozily
warm, polished and classy. Since the blouse encloses your
neck, go for alternative jewelry like earrings and a cuff bracelet.
Wearing a necklace would just clutter
your outfit, so stick with glamming up
your ears and wrists instead.

5. Scoop Neckline
Scoop-necks are u-shaped and
elongate your neck, giving the appearance
of a slimmer physique. With exposed
collarbones, a double-chain necklace fills
the ―blank canvas‖ nicely. The second
chain adds more interest and dimension.

6. Sweetheart Neckline
Sweetheart necks are popular in
evening gowns and cocktail dresses. The
most appropriate necklace to accessorize
with is a mid-length beaded necklace. You
don’t want anything hanging low and
breaking up the interesting heart-shaped
neckline, but having some beads will add
some texture and dimension to
compliment it.

How to choose a bracelet


Choosing a bracelet really depends on the person who will wear it. If
the person has a small or dainty wrist, you will want to make sure that the
bracelet doesn’t look too bulky for her wrist.

217
LM - HANDICRAFTS Grade 10

The first thing you want to do is think about the person you are buying
the bracelet for, are they male or female? Have you seen their other jewelry
pieces that you might be able to match a bracelet to or are you aware of a
specific type of jewelry they like? One of the best things to do in this situation
is to ask their friends for their taste in jewelry, you might also ask for her size
or borrow one of her current bracelets so that you can get the right size. This
way when you give her the perfect bracelet, it will fit her right away!

In Choosing a Headband

In choosing headbands, be sure to know first the occasion, the dress


you will wear, the shape of your face and the hairstyle you have. Through
this, it’s pretty sure that your asset or feature will be enhanced and will add
beauty to your physical appearance.

LO4: Evaluate finished product (Use Rubrics)

Objective

1. Evaluate the finished product or project

After making the project or product, it is very important that we


evaluate and delve of its purpose. From the previous discussion on this
learning manual, quality is very essential when making the product. How do
you achieve a quality product? Why do we need to produce quality product.
What criteria do we follow?

On this topic, there are two things we evaluate, you as the handicraft
worker and your finished product. The handicraft worker is evaluated through
your performance such as the design of your product, materials, methods or
techniques do you use, and lastly how do you work as a craft worker or
producer.

The second is your finished product, as you go through the process of


producing there are essential questions you will ask yourself. Am I satisfied
with what I made? Will my future customer like it? So, you as a craftsman you
should consider your design, materials and your workmanship.

There are two examples of rubric for you to follow on this learning
manual. Try to assess yourself and your product.

Synthesis
Paper Craft and Fashion Accessories are in demand products in the market.
It functions are widely used and even keep for years. Filipinos were known for
keepers or even hoarders those whom they loved and cherished. With the
vast competition and cheap production of competitors, our crafts can be at
part from them. The skills we inherit and enhanced cannot compare to those
commercially produced.
This learning manual have presented two types of crafts namely: Paper
Crafts,and Fashion Accessories . Each lesson, with the aid of the teacher,
would enable almost anyone to learn how to come up with basic, and with
more practice and proficiency, even complex projects. Each project also
required a plan that trains the learners for a systematic work procedure and
to identify and manage the available resources, including money. There is
also additional training on the packaging of the products. These trainings
become relevant when these articles are considered for an entrepreneurial
venture. Indeed, the competencies that one can learn in Handicraft can
truly empower a Filipino citizen.
