Phone Cases 101: 2015

Monday, May 11, 2015

Last Friday we presented our projects to everyone. I had a fun time sharing my speech with others and informing them about what I accomplished. It can be scary presenting to so many different people, some that I didn't know. I had such a fun time with this project!!

20% Time Speech

In the beginning of the year, I was confused about this project, mainly how it would last the whole year. Now, I was surprised by many things I learned throughout this project. I accomplished my goal of designing phone cases and learning many new things; I also enjoyed the process. My main accomplishments were making 11 phone cases and keeping my blog updated with the process. Through this project, I learned that it is harder for me to work if I am not being graded. Some more things I learned were how to blog, more things about my work ethic, how to decorate cases many different ways, and tons of other smaller things. These all lead up to my overall goal. I also had difficulties along the way. Some of the difficulties included wanted to change my project topic, not using my time wisely, having trouble working hard or on task, or never finding the time to get supplies for my project. Towards the end of the year, I got bored with my idea, and I wanted to try something different. This made me a lot less motivated to work. Another difficulty I encountered was never remembering to get supplies, and this set me back. Doing a project over the whole year had many positives and a few negatives. Besides the negatives, I had a fun time with it. If I continue with this project, I hope to eventually learn how to sell cases online. But, my goal was to learn different ways to design cases, and I did accomplish that. I learned many useful things I did not know before. This project also helped me improve my creativity. I have learned a ton of new things, and hopefully I can do this again sometime in the future!

Things I've Learned About Myself

Through this project I have learned many things about my self. I learned that I have trouble making a decision because I kept having second thoughts about every idea I made. I also learned that I can slack off a lot because I have saved many things for the last minute. :l

Progress

The past few weeks I started decorating the cases! I started the mod-podge glitter one. It looks great. It does take a while to get the glitter to look good though... I will take pictures and post them later!
