We are making a very cute cow today, a paper plate cow 😀
Paper Plate Cow
We’ll need 3 paper plates for this. One for the head, one for the body and another for the legs, ears and all.
Cut out four legs
Cut a small circle for the head
Cut spots out of black construction paper
Glue the spots into place
Draw the eyes
You’ve now got the cutest cow ever!
We are enjoying the durian season here now. Durian is a very ‘subjective’ fruit. You either LIKE or HATE it! To those who loves it, you’ll find that it is very fragrant while those who hate it won’t even be able to bear the pungent smell 😀
Anyway, no guessing to which side I’m at as that is what we are doing today 😛
Footprint Durian
Paint your foot yellow
Stamp your painted foot onto a piece of art block
Paint the other foot
Stamp next to the first footprint
Paint the ‘skin’ and thorns
The durian is done 😀
He’s one happy kid with his durian 😀

I received an amazing gift for Teacher’s Day recently. I was speechless when I saw it as it was simply awesome! What did I get? I got a handmade zippers pencil case.

It can be opened from any zips I like 😀
I can choose to open it from the middle too 🙂
Beautiful and simply amazing! The best gift I received ever!

Remember we did egg carton grapes sometime ago? Well, today we are going to do something similar, today we are making egg carton heart 🙂

You’ll need 12 egg carton cups

It’s so much easier to paint if you place them on an egg carton 🙂
