Hey there fellow steemians, I hope everyone is doing great on here.
Today I'm posting about a contest called Before and After on this community by @enveng, which I really love because the contest entices us as creatives to come up with something new, using raw/waste materials.
Last week I participated in this contest and here I am this week again, and this week am here with something different from what I did last week.

This week I designed a school structure (building)
I'll try to explain the steps I used to achieve the final product. Below are the steps:

Firstly, I gathered my tools and materials to be used

Tools : Cutter/Utility knife, Markers, Scissors, Ruler, Pencil and Tape Measure | Materials : Packing waste( dumped package) and Glue.

After gathering the tools and materials and then started the actual production process.


The packing waste was then caught into various sizes, thus 2 of 9cm*24cm,

2 of 9cm*32cm

And these four pieces form the walls of the main structure. Windows were painted on the four pieces with the interval of 2cm for the gap, 5cm for the window length, and 4cm for its height, thus for the short sides and an interval of 2cm for gap and 4cm for window length and height for the longer sides.
Also, the measurement for the roof and base of the structure is 2 of 31.5cm*24cm.

The pieces were further glued together to form the main structure and below is the result of that.

From here, I went ahead to create the entrance of the main structure.

which I further created a door for. The measurement for the door is
13cm * 15.5cm and 2 of 5.5cm * 15.5cm

The stripes of packing waste measure 1.5cm in height which was used to design the roof. Which can be seen in the next picture.
I went ahead and created the compound for the school structure, which had a base of measurement 45cm*35cm. It also has a fence which I used as a freehand cut-sized Packing waste.

I then went ahead and glued the school structure to the compound created.

The next thing I did was to create the label, which I wrote on a white piece of paper using a marker

Below is the finished product with a few touches, the stairs were made out of the middle layer of the packing waste.

I want to thank the leadership of this community for the wonderful work done.
