Colorful Tissue Paper Dragonfly
Kids love color and this Colorful Tissue Paper Dragonfly will make them proud to display their creations. Just add a paper or card stock mat and hang it on the wall in their room and watch them smile every time they see it.
Supplies
Tissue paper
Glue
Scissors
Googly eyes
Instructions
Start by stacking 4 colors of tissue paper on top of each other and then cut out tear drop shapes for the dragonfly’s wings. Make smaller ones to put inside the bigger ones too.
Take a paintbrush and spread a thin coat of glue on a white sheet of card stock paper and stick the tissue paper. Add some antennas and googly eyes to finish! Next time I would make the tail part more rounded inside of pointed :-)
Editors Note: Mom might need to make patterns for the young children.

I loved this idea, I usually have a lot of tissue paper left over, and hanging around. Gives me a good idea to use up the excess. Thanks Holly
