Glittered Foam Pumpkin Craft - After School Art

We made carved and glittered foam pumpkins in today's after school art class.

The girls "carved" designs into the foam pumpkins with pencil.  

Then we brushed them with brown/red and gold paint (to settle the color in the cracks).  

On the other two sides they painted with mod podge and glittered.  

We also made bows and glittered leaves to add to the top of the pumpkins. 

3rd & 4th Grade Paintings

Last spring I did paintings with a local elementary school.  The third grade did landscapes and the fourth grade did a pear still life.  Here are some examples of the finished paintings...

3rd Grade (8-9 yrs. old) - Landscapes

 

 4th Grade (9-10 yrs. old) - Pear Still Life

Kid's Art Class - Floral Arrangement

The girls made floral arrangements today.   They painted their clay pots with acrylics and then filled them with floral foam and flowers.  Fun!
