Easy Project You Can Do Tomorrow: Drawing with Pipe Cleaners

Here's the challenge: Draw the object using line. . . the line you will be using is made from pipe cleaners.

1. Twist three pipe cleaners together to make a straight line.

2. Bend and twist pipe cleaners to "draw" the object you are observing (we used scissors)

3. Draw your object using a pencil and paper.
