I love making masks, it provides a simple means to become something so wholly and completely different from who you normally are. Who wouldn't want to make the face of one of their favorite cuddly creatures. I opted to making a koala, but I presented it to the class as an opportunity to make whichever animal they pleased.
The Supplies:
Paper Plates
Scissors
Tacky
Glue
Felt
Cotton Balls
Pipe Cleaners (Not Shown)
Stapler/Staples
Elastic band
Instructions:
1. Cut the paper plate to its desired shape, eyes and what not, using extra plates if ears or other appendages are needed.
2. Apply tacky glue to the paper plate
3. Stretch the felt over the paper plate so it covers the entire mask.
4. Cut around your mask, and eye holes to get rid of excess fabric
5. Embellish. Add a nose, whiskers, eyelashes, spots, stripes, the possibilities are endless.
6. Stable the elastic to each side of the mask and put it on! Pin It
