finished we will form it into a 3-D form!

• With help from our parent volunteers, carefully remove the
backing from the contact paper and place your wire “loop” on
it sticky side up

• With help from our parent volunteers, carefully remove the
backing from the contact paper and place your wire “loop” on
it sticky side up
• Fold up the sides of the contact paper around the “loop”. You
may need to trim the corners off a little so that you don’t cover
up too much of the sticky side

shapes from the tissue paper – fold up the tissue paper so that
you can get multiple shapes with only one cut

• Think about shapes – what shapes will you cut out? Flowers,
footballs, pumpkins, cars, etc.
• Think about colors – will you use warm (red, orange, yellow) or
cool colors (green, blue, purple), or a mix of both to create
contrast?

• Once you have cut out your repetitive shapes, place your
“loop” sticky side up on your desk and start placing your
shapes on the contact paper

• Once you have cut out your repetitive shapes, place your
“loop” sticky side up on your desk and start placing your
shapes on the contact paper
• Think about design, using the whole surface, and being
thoughtful about your placement of objects – maybe using a
pattern like the Tiffany lamps we saw today?

form it into a 3-D form using the concept of stained glass for our
design.

Discussion Questions:
• What was our artists name for today?
• What art movement was he involved in?
• Is our final creation from today 2-D or 3-D?
• With taking time to design and create a one of a kind form, do
you think these decorative artworks should be more expensive
or less expensive than another form that is mass produced and
your could buy at a regular store like Target? Like a chair or
bedroom set or a couch?
• Do you like decorative art works? Why or why not? See if
your can explain your answer using art words you know…
