This is Picture Pie done with 6" paper plates. I used an ordinary hole puncher to punch a pattern around a couple of plates, first a circle of evenly spaced holes and then another circle of nibbles along the edge. Very easy, and I really like the way it makes the paper plates match better with the delicate watercolor sky.
How we did the sky is at http://skinflintwithscissors.blogspot.com/2012/02/how-to-paint-sky.html.
ReplyDelete"Picture Pie" means that you cut circles into halves, quarters, and eigths and make pictures out of the pieces. Ed Emberley invented this and wrote a wonderful book full of ideas. Every crafty mom and every teacher should have a copy, so if you are looking for ideas for a teacher gift, this is a great one.
Very nice! We'll have to try the hole punch. These look like peacocks, one of my favorite birds.
