Ice Sculptures — January 12-19, 2010 |
||
|
The art teacher at Treklang is a very talented creative woman. She makes these ice castles with the children, using various vessels and techniques to make shapes with cavities for holding candles. This year she also made colored ice to hang in the tree.

She said it was simply a plastic cup partly filled with water, and they squirted a little paint into it.

They used balloons, milk cartons, plastic cups, and paper cones (not sure how they worked the paper cones, but that’s what she said.)

If you suspend the balloon in the freezer, then take it out and turn it over once it’s partly frozen, it creates a little cavity for a candle. Cool! She did the same thing with a milk carton, turning it so that three sides were iced up, but one was free.
