Chihuly Glass Chandelier
Instead of colored glass students use permanent markers on recycled water bottles and clear paper.
They cut the plastic into strips and punch holes in each shape.
The pieces are then strung on a piece of yarn and an adult hits the plastic
with a heat gun to melt and manipulate it.
This project was made possible through the Arts in Education Partnership of the Pennsylvania Council on the Arts, a state agency funded by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania and the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency.
