So this is how it looks when you put the top and bottom piece together!
Quite gorgeous, isn’t it?! I might be biased though ^^
The rest of the time was spent testing the electronics and attaching the lights.
Here you can see the lights – picture taken from below. We first tried to tape the lights to the skirt… it failed. So the solution was to use hot glue and glue the wires to the skirt… it succeeded!
THE final testing of the lights! Looks awesome!!!
Now making the filtering pouches. The fabric is used so that the charcoal would not by any chance flow into the droplet pouches to drink.
Ironing the plastic to be infused.
Making the final versions of the water-droplet pouches with the attached blue straws!
Going to use some hot glue to conceal any openings.
Testing with the tubes and the pump. Unfortunately it did not work out 🙁 There must have been an opening somewhere that we couldn’t figure out.
So we switched to plastic bottle as water container. Concealed the holes with a lot of hot glue to avoid any failure this time 🙂 And it worked! See the water flowing in the tubes!!!
Yeah!!! The pump is working and water is flowing!
Final addition: making small pockets for the Lilypad & Power Bank and the Battery & Water Pump. I sew three velcro strips on both sides of the dress at the bottom.
This is a picture of the pocket attached on the left side of the dress.
