We chose to do a "decoration piece" for our ice sculpture. We chose that because it will be a fairly simple thing to do in the time we are given and it also fits the theme; which is a holiday theme. We are planning to have a square block of ice with holiday designs on all the side. One side will have a snowflake and one side with have "happy holidays" written on it. All the carvings in the ice will be colored different colors. The piece will have blue LED lights in it to make it shine and show the designs better. We are going to hang it off of something, anything we can find that will be sturdy. We are planning to have two spotlights; one pointing towards the piece from the bottom right and one from the bottom left.


 * Activities to be completed this week and next week:**

1. freeze the ice. 2. get both the journals done. 3. get drawings done.

This week we got the two journals done, and we froze the ice. We got the drawings done as well, but they are not up on this site yet. We still need to scan them and put them up. We are having a bit of trouble figuring out how to carve the designs on the ice. We cannot find an answer. We're not sure if a carving knife or just a real sharp knife will work

This week has been really hectic! We found a really easy way to carve in our designs, which was using a drill machine to do it! but then i realized that we cant, because apparently electrical devices arent allowed! Because of that, we had to cancel some of the stuff we were going to do! So now we arent putting the LED lights into the ice, because theres no way to get it in anymore! so were just going to put them on the side! We are also not going to have the spotlights anymore because we do not want to go out and buy spotlights, and we are not being provided with them also! While working on the project, everyone is freezing!!!!! its so cold! we all just want to get this project done with! By now we have got the "happy" written on there and also colored! :)
