Today we went in with a positive attitude after yesterday. We send hello and went to find out what we were doing for the day. We were told to carry on with the petals of the car as a carry on from yesterday. I am presuming this will be our task for the week. As well as the surface of the petals we have to cover the sides of each one with a trim as the edges are raw and really sharp. Maria-ellena is watching over us and is actually really nice. She told us that they were really pleased with the petals and that instead of masking taping them down we could just go and stick them straight-away. This was good as it showed they were pleased with what we had done. To stitch the trims to the mesh we are using silicone.
The first petals we stuck down were the ones we did yesterday this was a new experience for both of us. The silicone is a pain to use we had to use gloves as it is an irritant. It also takes quite a long time to dry and covering the edges proved to be a bit of a nightmare as the trim would stitch round the edge. In the end we had to use pins to secure the trim until the silicone is dry.
By the end of the day we had complete 1 large and 1 small petal and had started on the third. It was proving to be quite hard work as we were sat on a cold stone floor and tackling the silicone.
