Hanging Chickens

Materials:

Directions:

  1. Push a wooden skewer into the base of the egg, then paint the egg bright yellow, holding onto the skewer. Anchor the skewer until the paint has dried.
  2. While drying, cut up colored pipe cleaners. You will need two small blue bits for the eyes, orange for the beak and comb, orange and black intertwined for the legs and tail. Push the eyes, beak, and comb into position, once the paint has dried.
  3. Thread a bead onto a length of elastic or string, securing it with a knot. Make a hole in the top center of the egg with a skewer and glue the bead into it.
  4. Push in pipe cleaners for the legs and tail.

Big Cat Mask

  1. Blow up the balloon and tie a knot in the end.
  2. Tear the newspaper into strips that are about six inches long and two inches wide.
  3. Pour about two cups of laundry starch into the bowl.
  4. Dunk a strip of newspaper into the starch, and make sure it gets soaked.
  5. Lay the wet strip on the balloon, and smooth it out with the paintbrush so there are no lumps or big air bubbles. Keep dipping strips in the starch and continue placing them on the balloon, but only cover one half of the balloon. Smooth the strips out as you go with the paintbrush.
  6. Let the half-covered balloon dry overnight. Repeat steps 2 to 5 if you like to give your mask extra strength and let dry overnight again.
  7. Pop the balloon when it is all dry. What you have left is the mask to cover your face.
