In the Designer's Words: "I have seen these awesome himelli projects and have wanted to make one for a long time. At my latest trip to the hardware store I bought some copper pipe and a pipe cutter. It was fairly easy to cut, but hard to get the pieces to a precise length. While the copper was relatively inexpensive, I wanted to know what I was doing before I got too far into it. So I decided to make a trial version with straws. Thats right, plastic straws you can grab for free the next time you take your kids for fast food. Or, you can be classy about it and buy some solid colored straws, or even some cute paper straws that are already the color you like. This could be replicated for a more sturdy shape using copper wire. I don't recommend using paper straws unless you already like their color because they don't spray paint very easily. This could easily be replicated for kids using pipe cleaners and smaller straws."
