Student Showcase: Carlisle Wheeler

For most, everyone loves to finish a project and start another one right away. Carlisle Wheeler, sophomore, did just that on her medal of honor in Mr. Craven’s Jewelry I class. ” I couldn’t wait to begin my medal of honor once i completed my earrings because I wanted to take on a much bigger and complex idea” she said. Carlisle decided to cut out a horse out of copper and rivet it onto a horseshoe cutout. You’d think that was it, but attached on the back was a picture frame she cut out that had a cover piece on top and could rotate out to see what was inside. This was a big task to take on for a Jewelry I student. “It got to be very frustrating at times trying to rivet so many pieces of metal onto a little pin but I was very happy with the end result” she said upon finishing.
