Straw Sculptures

You'll need: bendable straws, tape, paper clips, cardboard
for a base if desired.
Cut straws to different lengths. Snip a slit at one end
of some of the straws. Insert straws into each other to form desired shape. Paper clips can be used for angled joints by bending into S & U shapes and inserted into the straws.
To make "fireworks" or trees, cut several slits on the end of the straws and curl with scissors as you would do to curling ribbon.
