DLTK's Chrismas for Kids
Flower Paper
Plate Craft
I was busily designing the "Buzzing
Bugs" craft and realized that the flowers were a fun craft even
without the bugs.
There's a handprint option and a construction paper petal option
-- pick your favorite. You can also add a cute
buzzing
bug or two if you like!
Materials:
- paint (poster paint, tempra paint or acrylic paint
all work) -- green is nice, but other colors will work too
- paint brush
- glue
- construction paper
- scissors
- pencil
- optional: yellow construction paper, felt or pom poms
- optional: gold or silver glitter or glitter glue

Viewer Suggestion: instead of a paper plate,
trace a plate onto a piece of cardboard or poster board and
use that as the center of the project.

Instructions - paper version:
- Paint the "bottom" of your paper plate: your paper plate has
the side you'd eat from and the side you'd place on the table -- the
bottom is the side you'd place on the table
- paint your plate a base color (green is nice!),
- let dry
- trace petal shapes
or handprints
onto a pieces of construction paper.
- cut out the petals/handprints
- glue them in circles around the plate
- Using yellow construction paper, pom poms, felt or glitter make
a circular center to your poinsettia
