Masks From Recycled Cheese Boxes
The variations on these face masks made from recycled cheese boxes are limited only by your imagination. Kids will have a great time with this craft and it makes a unique wall decoration.
Trivia: Laughing Cow Cheese and French brie come in round cheese boxes.
Supplies
Stencils
Penny
Paint
Lids from the small round boxes that hold the cheese triangles.
Dimensional Fabric Paint (optional)
Instructions
I only used the bottom of the lid as the top has a piece of paper (label) glued to it and that often has wrinkles in it and I wanted a smooth surface.
After basecoating the bottom in the color of your choice, use a penny to draw a circle for the eyes. Then I looked through my various stencils and used bits and pieces of those to create the face. The finishing touch was the use of dimensional fabric paint to accent the mask.
