Pagoda

PAGODA

TOP LAYER   1

 This is the top-most layer of the pagoda.  It shows the inside and outside of the floor.  In this picture, the removable roof is not included.  It is basically the empty, unused, attic.  If you look closely, you might see some cobwebs made from thin strands of hot glue.  (The glue we used to assemble this project.)  I would say, overall, this layer took us the least amount of time to make, compared to some of the more complex ones.

LAYER 2nd TO TOP   2

   This is the second layer in the pagoda.  It shows one of the outer walls that is not incorporated in the whole picture of this project at the top of this page.  The Chinese symbol you see on it is the character for sky.


    At the bottom of the layer, you see cardboard sticking out. That is so that you can stack and unstack the layers and is attached to every layer.

MIDDLE LAYER   3

This is the middle layer of the pagoda.  These are both pictures of the inside:  the wall is a mix of green and blue and though the floor is wrinkled, that only shows that it is loose, fluffy, and nice to walk on.  The left picture features the comfy floor and the fancy "curly" curtain.  It also shows the hole on the ground that would have a string attached so you could slide down from, or climb to the level.  The picture was taken from the Right window.  The other picture features a couch...to bad we didn't make a TV.  It was taken from the window visible in the two pictures.

LAYER 2nd TO LAST   4

Now... (drum roll please!) I present to you...

OUR FAVORITE LAYER!!!

    I think that you would agree that by far, this is the best layer yet...The atmosphere that it gives off is just wonderful.  This layer also took us the longest to create.

The hopeful curtain, The lonely plant

Outside view; table, mat, and carpet seen from window

From a door, I see the other door

Mirror, Mirror, on the wall

A view to the outside world

I look in to see a crystal

LAST LAYER   5

This is the last layer, or the bottom most layer.  It shows a mirror, shrine, and a curtain.  The mirror was created using a CD that was cut to shape.  The shrine was designed so that if  you lift up the lid to the altar, you would see a crystal in it.  The curtain was made by folding fabric.
