“[I am making] two giraffes. They’re my favorite animal and my sister’s. It’s also my boyfriend’s favorite animal so I was going to give it to him,” Andrea Jimenez (10) said.

“[Mine is] a mini Burton snowboard. I didn’t think it would be this hard,” Cody McCall (12) said.

“I have a lot a reshaping to do. It’s the Devil May Cry symbol for [my boyfriend] Allan Hearn (12). He’s been under a lot of stress lately, and I wanted to do something nice for him,” Opal Sanchez (11) said.
