8P2-Popcicle Watch Holder

Using wooden popsicle sticks, hot glue, and paint, I created a small table and a watch stand because I never had a place for my watch to sit when it was charging and I have damaged books by setting them of the tables in my room, so I could now elevate items to lessen the chance of damage.

During this process, I learned how to even out and smooth my popsicle sticks without restarting my project from the beginning.

The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Innovative Designer because I was able to find a problem and fix it.

A challenge I overcame on this project was a uneven top on my table. I was able to do it by adding another layer of sticks to even it out.

Given a chance to do this again, I would change the legs of the table. The reason why I would change it is because of the legs being different lengths make the table leans to one side.
