Armature Wire 3mm x 50m Roll

The Armature Wire 3mm x 50m Roll is a flexible and creative sculpting resource, ideal for building the structure and form of 3D artworks. This wire is easily bendable, making it perfect for children to explore sculpture techniques, experiment with shapes, and bring their ideas to life. Whether sculpting human or animal figures, trees, or abstract designs, children can use this wire as a foundation to build upon using papier mâché, clay, twine, or beads. The 3mm thickness offers a sturdy yet manageable base for both simple and detailed models. As children's confidence in sculpting grows, they can add more intricate features and explore the possibilities of combining wire with different textures and materials. This resource supports open-ended creativity, allowing children to express their ideas in a tangible, hands-on way. A great addition to any art room or classroom, the wire encourages students to plan, shape, and construct with purpose and imagination.
