Mélissa makes a sari

Mélissa starts by making a long skirt out of two different types of wrapping paper, while sticking an adhesive bow on her forehead.

However, her skirt quickly falls apart when she moves, as she had relied on wrapping several layers around her body to hold everything in place, instead of using a large amount of tape.

Rectifying her mistake, Mélissa re-wraps the paper around her body, then loops a layer of tape around the top to hold everything down.

Mélissa covers the top half of her body with a different patterned wrapping paper, draping it across her body like a sari.

When Antoine enters the room, he is met with the sight of Mélissa standing near the tree, singing Tino Rossi’s Nöel Blanc (‘White Christmas’).

Antoine awards Mélissa second place, mainly for her singing.
