Open Ended Art – May 3rd.

The idea for next week will be tie die filters. I got the idea here. Check it out for inspiration. When I first found this link the pictures were there. But for some reason they have gone missing. But you will get the idea by reading the post.

This week we did a leaf collage between wax paper. My little guy went wild collecting foliage and wanted it all on his collage :)


We added shredded crayons to the collage.

The ironing part did not go well for us. I gave him a lesson on the iron and how the bottom gets hot. Then I put the towel down and he held the handle with me while I ironed. Here was the problem, he put so much in there that it would not stay together. I folded the edges under and taped it so all of it would stay in.

The result. I think it is really pretty :)

    So did you create the wax paper and crayon part of this yourself? I printed out the link about leaf collages that you linked to last week, but the was glueing the leaves on the paper into pictures. So did you do your own twist on that or is this from another link I missed? It’s really really neat. I’ll try this when I have a few less than 7 kids at my house. :)
