Wave Bracelet
I made a bracelet with a pattern that looks kind of like a wave. It was made out of embroidery thread. It was hard to make because it took a lot of time and was kind of a difficult pattern. However, I did learn how to make a new bracelet pattern. It looked pretty prodigious once I finished it.

Jewelry
Some examples of jewelry I have been making in art class. One is a hemp necklace. There are a few clay beads that I made and a beaded bracelet made from beads and wire. That's pretty much it.... They were all fun, but I hated making the wire bracelet because I wouldn't wear it... the hemp was fun. The beads turned out kind of ugly because I didn't get the right color of glaze on them.

Nylon and Wire Blog
I made a sculpture using nylon, wire, and a cup for the base. I constructed an abstract sculpture, put a nylon stocking on it, and painted it with acrylic paint. I learned that acrylic on nylon isn't as absorbant as it looks. I'm proud of how the design turned out. I didn't really like that some of the tiger stripes got smeared.

Found Object Sculpture
i made a sculpture out of found objects to make a sculpture. I used tin foil around bottle caps for the eyes, pie pans for the mouth, felt for the tongue, and aluminum foil to cover it. I learned that aluminum foil is really fragile. I'm proud that it looked so cool. I didn't really like that it barely stood up on its own.

Oil Pastel Cardboard Sculpture
This is my guitar sculpture. It was just an idea I had and wanted to see if I could make it. I made it out of cardboard and hot glue. I also used oil pastels to color it. I learned that cardboard can be really easy to work with. I'm proud of how well it turned out in the end. I didn't really like some of the gaps left in the cardboard from not being cut correctly.

3D "Doodle Sculpture"
I made a sculpture of a crazy clock. It started off as a doodle and became a sculpture. I used wire for the clock hands, colored hot glue to make it stick out, paint, and an old clock face. I learned that hot glue could be an art in itself. It's fun to use but tough to master. I'm proud of the way it turned out. I didn't expect it to turn out like this. I didn't really like some of the hot glue clumps and stringy stuff from hot glue that was left behind. Also some of the hot glue started to fall off.
