Abstract
In this challenge, students will design at least three items of wearable art using recyclable materials. Students will have to decide which material(s) to use to produce their wearable design to estimate the cost of production. Students will then provide an estimated retail price. Bonus points will be awarded to students who design the most cost-efficient item.
