Vessel project

Our first project was to make a vessel, which is something that can hold something else. My original idea was to have a sphere turning into butterflies and for the vessel to hold the butterflies but the end result turned out more like a nest. I decided to use copper and silver wire to make this because I thought it would look cooler and work better. I made the shape by weaving the coils in and out. This thing caused a lot of little cuts all over my hands, this project really made me work. I cut out paper butterflies and constantly changed the size of the outward coils. All said and done,I really like the end result.
A couple weeks after we made it we photographed it... Sooo here are a lot of pictures:
