An old blackberry

As I now start to make the physical project, I have brought in an old blackberry which I will break into may pieces. In these pictures, you get a front and back view, and a picture of the blackberry without its back.

Creating Techlery/ The Method

Reference: http://www.wikihow.com/Make-Jewelry

Step 1: Get ideas

·         Look at different pictures of readymade jewellery with tech.

·         Look at pieces of jewellery that I already have.

·         Look at jewellery at the store.

Step 2: Decide on materials

We won’t be using pearls or beads but small pieces of tech. This includes:

·         Keys (from a keyboard)

·         Motherboard (cut into small pieces)

·         Sim card (cut into small pieces)

·         Wire

·         String

·         Batteries

·         Chain

·         Clasps

Step 3: Sketch the image

I will need to plan what size it will be, what it will look like, etc.

Step 4: Gather the resources

Get the Wire, Chain, Clasps, String, Etc. Get it from a local craft store or supermarket. I will get the rest of the resources from tech around my house.

Step 5: Get the correct tools

I will need:

• Pliers (nylon jaw pliers, round nose pliers, chain nose pliers, and bent chain nose pliers.)
• Scissors
• Wire cutters

I have some of this lying around my house but the rest I will need to get from a local craft store or supermarket.

Step 6: Bend the wires to the shape I desire

Whether it is a loop or a straight line, I need to make it into the shape I need.

Step 7: Attach clasps and other resources

Following the design from step 3, I will but on the resources in order and design I wish. Finally, when all the stuff are on, I will add the clasps.
