a cute number sixteen ice sculpture design
The “sweet 16” is one of those special rite of passage birthdays like bar/bat mitzvahs and quinceañeras. Although it might not have the formal undertones of the other versions, the 16th is one of those birthdays that is kind of a big deal as the child becomes an adult (in theory). And since it’s a big deal, why not get an ice sculpture?
By the way, I definitely didn’t get a number sixteen ice sculpture for my birthday. (Not even some ice cubes arranged as a 16 🤣) However, I don’t know that I’d even ever seen an ice sculpture when I was that age. I think it would be a few years before ice sculptures entered my awareness. But I’ve done a number of Sweet 16 ice sculptures and I would expect that other ice sculptors make many more than I do.
One odd recollection I have is that I got into a minor traffic accident once when I had a Sweet 16 ice sculpture in the truck. Everyone survived, even the ice sculpture! But I’ll always think of that unfortunate few seconds whenever I carve a 16th birthday ice sculpture. I might have other versions of this design to offer up later. Other similar number sculpture designs on the site include: 10, 15, 20, 21, 25, 30, 50, and 60
an additional slab of ice needs to be welded to the base to make sure your number sixteen ice sculpture won’t fall over. See the 25 and 50 number designs for diagrams that include a base. The font in the banner is Bickham Script Pro.
