Craft of the Week: 03/10 - 03/16: Leprechaun Mask

Inspired by: Simply Today Life

Materials: 

• Paper plate

• Orange paint

• Paintbrush

• Paint palette

• Gold glitter

• Green, yellow, and black construction paper

• Glue

• Scissors

• Tape 

Instructions:

1. Fold your paper plate (don’t crease it) so you can cut into it. Cut out a circle in the middle of it (large enough for your face). 

2. Paint the paper plate “ring” orange. Set it aside to let it dry.

3. Draw a small rectangle on the black paper and cut it out. 

4. Draw a “hat” on the green paper and cut it out. 

5. Draw a square on the yellow paper and cut it out. Fold the square in half (don’t crease it) so you can cut out a square in the middle. 

6. Glue the black rectangle on the hat, and then glue the yellow “buckle” onto the black strip.

7. Put glue on the yellow “buckle” and add the glitter. 

8. Once the paint is dry, tape the hat onto the paper plate.

9. Cut short lines around the bottom of the paper plate to make a leprechaun beard. 

10. Try the mask on!
