Cheap and Easy Crafts

(Nancy Kaufman) #1

Instructions:


Cut out 2 egg shaped templates and tape one to work surface. I use an old drawing board so I can


move it for snack, lunch or whatever comes up. The egg guide will help your child visualize


where to put the materials. Cut out two rectangles slightly larger than your egg template. Peel off


backing of one (set aside second rectangle) and lay sticky side up over egg template. Tape down


on each end so it doesn't slide around. Start adding all your collage material -- paying attention to


your egg guide. You want a good seal around the edges so try to keep collage materials inside of


egg. When your done -- peel off backing of second piece of sticky paper -- place on top of


collage and smooth with your hands. You can either take a permanent marker and outline the egg


shape underneath or use the second egg template as a guide to cut out egg. I held it in place with


my thumb and cut around it to ensure I wouldn't get any marker edging on my egg. Untape


plastic sticky paper collage. Leave egg template taped to board for the next collage egg. Cut out


egg. Repeat as many times as desired. You may want to do one large egg with several tiny eggs


dangling from it...it is up to you and your imagination!
