This is a great, easy project that can keep your kids busy for a little while. And they’re even display worthy!
You’ll need:
printed outlines of the shape you want (I chose sleigh, deer and Santa hat)
glue
tissue paper
colored cardstock (trimmed to 8×10 if you’re going to frame them)
Cut out the shape and trace on the cardstock using pencil
Cut small squares of tissue paper.
Bunch up one square into a ball.
Dip it in glue and put it on the paper, repeating until the whole shape is filled in.
I made the deer, Emily did the sleigh, and Meagan did the hat. I was actually really proud of myself for just letting them do theirs alone, and not going back in to fill gaps when they were finished 🙂
I stuck them into plain black frames and left the glass off. Now they’re hanging by our table, and the girls are so proud that they made one!
