#GermanSelfie Display Case Idea

Every January German Club gets the display case in the media center.  We decorate it with German-related displays.  This year we put up some of the artwork students had made earlier this year, as well as our usual display about Germany and German.

The main feature of our display case this year, however, is a mirror set-up.  Students made cut-outs of traditional German Lederhosen and Dirndl.  They included the clothing, arms and legs, but left off the heads.  We then attached a mirror so that when students go up to the display, they'll see themselves "wearing" the outfits.  We put the hashtag #GermanSelfie on the mirror to encourage students to publish pictures of them in their German get-ups.

I got this idea from somewhere on Pinterest (I believe) or on another blog.  Unfortunately I can't find the source of the original post, but it had the same idea but with traditional clothing form Spanish-speaking countries.  If you know where the original poster came from, please let me know so I can credit them here.
