During lunch, I made a pineapple coat hanger. It is made out of needs, cardboard, a paper clip, and hot glue. During the process of making this, I ran into a few problems. The beads were falling apart. I realized that I was using too little hot glue. Another problem I ran into was the hook. At first I thought I should make it also out of beads. Then I thought about why this wouldn’t work. What it the beads broke? I decided to go to the paper clip. They are very hard to break. I molded it into a hook shape. Another problem came up. It was bendy. I eventually came up with a plan to put hot glue around the paper clip. This limited its ability to bend.
