Transcript of "Carmen Sylva" School, Eforie Sud A special day of holiday 28th of October, 2011.
It was a beautiful autumn day, when we visited the Folk Art Museum in Constanta, a beautiful town on the Black Sea Coast.
We liked there a lot because we are always taught to make beautiful things.
Last year we made masks and the ladies from the museum helped us. The masks were exhibited in the museum and then in our classroom.
This year we have made folk costumes for dolls, made by us from wooden spoons.
We listened to
the explanations given
to us, but we also
had a little rest, as
we became a
little tired… and
we had “work” to
do!
The lady who works at the museum showed us several models of costumes and explained us the working phases.
We prepared everything necessary on the table: a wooden spoon, a piece of white cotton textile for the doll’s dress, a piece a red woolen material, a tricolor ribbon for belt a piece of lace to cover the head, threads of yellow or black wool for hair, colours to paint the face, a pencil, scissors, glue, pieces of fur of different colours for the jacket and cap. We tied a pencil across the spoon, to be the hands. We made a long dress and tied it at the middle with the tricolor ribbon…
Our country coordinator, Cornelia Platon, who’s also the Folk Costumes project coordinator, was there with us and she showed us a gallery with photos representing dolls in folk costumes made by her students and by other children from around the world.
