My Project

My students LOVE the experience of building with cardboard and hot glue. They loved it so much last year we went through box after box of glue creating everything from famous architecture to imaginative masks. We hacked away at thick cardboard with child-size safety scissors and wondered if there were better tools for the job.

These heavy-duty scissors will unlock creative potential for students as they will be able to easily produce the shapes they are imagining for their sculptures.

I enjoy teaching students they can use cardboard and other commonly discarded materials to create something surprisingly beautiful!
