I'm at it again with the heavy duty tape, this time the electrical. Like my Skeleton Family?? SOOOOO easy to do. Here's the drift:
White cardboard
Black paint
Electrical tape
Black Paper Twists
Hot glue
Dowel
~Take the tape and, using thin pieces (you'll have to tear it), make a black skeleton on the white cardboard. I made a whole family, including the cat and dog. :-)
~Paint the whole thing black. You can go over the tape, it will resist the paint.
~Once dry, you can lightly scrape off the tape and you'll have a skeleton looking back at you.
~Take a wooden dowel and wrap it with the paper twist, securing it with the hot glue. I also made two little paper twist rosettes for either end of the dowel.
~Hot glue the pictures into place on the dowel. Once cool, put that baby up on the wall somewhere!!
Simple, right?? This is a good craft for kiddos and adults alike.
