Wire Sculpture 

Our theme for this project was 'The Carnival'. Everyone in the class was suppose to pick something that they would find at the carnival. 

At first I was really excited for this project until I started struggling while working with the wire. I went through three different ideas and poorly made sculptures until I ended up making my cute little unicycle. 

I wanted something that I knew no one else in my class was doing. 

While I was making my tire, I decided to use multiple pieces of wire to create the illusion of the tire moving. 

I think that this is a super fun project and a great thing to do as a class. My class's end display turned out so cute and nice when everything from the carnival was together. 

For younger kids I think that pipe cleaner or a softer wire would be much more appropriate.
