PROJECT

PROJECT:
DRY THE MATERIALS

MAKING CONICAL HATS

MAKING THE BASKETS

DRYING THE INCENSES

*Discuss the thing you are
going to talk about

IN THESE PICTURES, WE CAN SEE HOW
TO MAKE THE TRADITIONAL
HANDICRAFT. AND THIS IS THE
SUBJECT OF THIS SECTION: HOW TO
PRESERVE THE TRADITIONAL
HANDICRAFT IN OUR AREA ?

FIRSTLY, LET'S GO TO FIND SOME
INFORMATION ABOUT THE
TRADITIONAL HANDICRAFT IN OUR
AREA. IN BEN LUC TOWN , BECAUSE OF
HAVING A FAMOUS MAT MAKING
VILLAGE, WE WILL SEE SOME PICTURES
ABOUT THIS VILLAGE THE LAND
WHERE PEOPLE GROW THE
MATERIALS OF MAT, THE MATERIALS
IS CALLED “LÁT” IN VIETNAM

WHEN THE “LÁT” GROWS ENOUGH, PEOPLE HARVEST AND
LOAD THEM INTO THEIR HOUSE TO SLIDE THE “LÁT”.

After sliding the “lat”, they dyed
them with the natural colors like
green from leaves; yellow from
clay; red from mud and etc,…

Then they dry them in the
sunlight from 1 to 2 days before
the last stage.

And after a lot of hard stages, they
made the mat with the fun and
happiness on their face, are the
achievement from their hardworking

Or the people who make the mats
use the chemical colors to dye the
mat, and it's easy to make people's
skin allergic.

Although it's famous, there are a lot of challenges for this village.
Now, people usually use the latexes more than using mats because
they are more comfortable than mats.
So I think we can protect this work With some solutions :
- Help the mat makers know how to develop this village and preserve
this work.
- Bring the mat to another event to broadcast the mat for everybody
know more than about the mat.
