NECKLACE WITH SEEDS


MATERIALS REQUIRED
Seeds, needle, thread, beads, varnish
PROCEDURE
•Soak the seeds in water for 24 hours. After that they may germinate.
•Soaking makes the dried seeds soft and its easy to pierce the needle through them.
•Plan the design that you are going to make and then start adding the seeds and beads inbetween.
Do the circular parts n pendant separately and attach it to the chain later. Once finished allow it to dry and apply a layer of varnish.

FLOWERS

MATERIALS REQUIRED
A colourful carrier bag, Scissors ,Tape
PROCEDURE
•Take a carrier bag that's a bright colour
•The idea is to draw six or seven petal shapes - pointy ovals - onto the carrier bag.
•Cut them out carefully
•For the centre of the flower, cut out a circle from a different coloured bag. Pinch it in the middle, bunching the circle up.
•Hold it in place with some tape.This can be a bit fiddly!]
•Then, add on the petals.Put them around the edges.
•Hold two or three in position, and add on some tape.
•Keep adding petals in the same way, going around the centre, until you've created a whole flower.
•You could even twist a green bag into a long stalk, holding it in place with lots of tape.Stick the flower onto the other end!
•You can experiment with different coloured bags. and different petal shapes.
