My art class did a great job with this project. It was a little tricky (lots of cutting and careful placing) so I don't think I would attempt it with younger kids again. My students are aged 8-13 and the youngest ones needed a lot of help.
I had them use rubber stamps with permanent ink on their blank canvas panels. Then we painted over everything and added effects with bubble wrap and other textures. Stamping before painting caused a cool washed out effect in the background. Then I had them draw and cut out templates from cardstock and use them to trace and cut patterned papers. Mod podge was used to adhere the paper balloons and clouds. We also added real string for the basket ropes. I wish they had been able to add outlines to their balloons but we ran out of time (class runs 1 1/2 hours).
I got the idea for this project from Pinterest.
ReplyDeleteFeel glad that I discovered this blog. Enjoyed a lot of reading and sharing your post about the amazing trip to Manali. Some of the places you
have mentioned are my favorite places too! I'd also want to go to Manali with my family for our weekend getaway and I am extremely excited about doing this. I carefully researched the pros and cons of numerous Manali tour packages before selecting one of the affordable Manali Tour Packages
for myself. With this post, I have learned a lot about the important things I must make. The forthcoming family trip to Manali that I will be taking with my wife and kids is something I am looking forward to. Wish me a happy and safe journey!
