On 7 October, 36 students in Linyi, Shandong wore beautiful clothes in a show. Their clothes were made of all kinds of things.
The show gave the students a chance to make things with their own hands. It also helped them learn to make good use of wastes.
Students had lots of good ideas. Some found things like old clothes to make the dresses.
"We hope to save energy (能源). Our world is short of energy. So I don't want to just throw old things away," said Xie Jing, 13, at Linyi Art School. She had more than 20 CDs on her nice blue dress. She got them from her family and friends.
Song Dandan, a Junior 2 student from the same school, looked like a farmer in her straw coat and hat. She picked the straw from the fields and put it all together. "I want to show what people wore in the past," she said.
Du Yue, 14, even made clothes for astronauts. When she walked, she tried to be slow. It looked like she was walking on the moon. "I wish to be the first woman from China to walk on the moon!" she said.
