Instructions

Click on printables and print out Panda pattern on your cardstock.

Cut out the outline before you glue the tissue paper.

Cut tissue paper into 2"squares. They don't have to be exact but it is good to keep them approximately the same size.

Crumple each piece into a tight ball. Dip into white glue and place onto pattern. Start with the small sections first to make sure they keep their definition. Continue crumpling and gluing down pieces until the entire pattern is filled.
