"For this project we're going to use a range of materials and you can really expand on this however you see fit. We want to make sure that we're working in a space because we're using some glue, some glitter that is a clean space possibly a table cloth, a kitchen table an area that can get a little messy. We're going to be using pipe cleaners and you want to choose pipe cleaners that are bright and colorful because our fish we want to be tropical, exciting and bright. So we have the black pipe cleaners which will form the original part of the body and we're going to use the color pipe cleaners for the outside in the decorative part. We're also going to use a little bit of glitter, glue to apply the glitter. We have googly eyes and possibly some sequins. We may even be adding in some tissue paper to give it a little bit more movement especially if we're going to use it in a mobile. We have glitter to apply to the tissue paper which will make a little bit shinier, give you that tropical fish feeling. We also are going to use a little bit of string in order to hook our, create a loop for the hook of our fish."
