Exploring and creating art. Using items around the house

  
Exploring/creating art-using items around the house.
This was so much fun, and very hands-on. My daughter really enjoyed the different textures and shapes.

Materials we used:
-Plastic fork
 -Paper towel roll
 -Flowers
 -Clothespins/with pom poms
-Plastic bottle top
-Straws
-Craft stick


 Explore and create art using different designs with each material.


 During our art time, I went over how each item created a different design.


Be creative and use your imagination!

  2. The entire process sounds fun - from gathering supplies to painting and discovering the designs you can create from these findings. So creative. I also think the cotton ball clothespins are brilliant!
