This activity was inspired from Alisa Burke‘s work of which I am a big fan.
Easy and fun to make, children from age 6 made these boxes. The older the children, the more they have patience to go into decorative details. Kids are very independent with this activity.
Supplies :
Recycled Shoebox
Black or White Acrylic Paint
White and black Edding 750 Paint Marker.
Optional : Colorful Buttons,cabochons, colorful beads, hot glue
Instructions :
1. Paint the shoe box in all white or black acrylic paint. Let dry.
