This is my matchsticks art for today. It took me almost 2 days to make this one, but in the end, the FIRE was really incredible!
Suplies :
- glue gun
- pencil
- blue and red matchsticks
- white cardboard
Let me show you the whole process:
Using the cardbord to glue the matchsticks on, I first made a pencil drawing. I am using the drawing as reference. This is a slow process making sure the matches are perfectly straight.
The gluing process was longer than I expected.
I used a total of 1722 matchsticks and I felt that something is missing, so I added another 462 matchstick. After a total of 2184 red and blue matchsticks I finally finish.
One matchstickbox has 42 matchsticks and I used 41 matchboxes (red matchsticks) (41x42=1722) and 11 matchboxes (blue matchsticks) (11x42=462).
This is how it looks:
Why did I added the blue matchsticks?
